You've all given eggcellent advice. Plus eggs are a cheep source of protein. Don't chicken out, Wuppertal - have some fun eggsperimenting with them.

Yolking apart, Thomas, this is the statement that puzzles me most!
It's just that I used to use the oven absolutely all the time, even for doing "proper" things, not just the junk, and practically never used the hob. Pizzas, those meat things covered with breadcrumbs, fish fingers, sausage rolls, lasagne, goulash, pasties, fish, baking cakes, cauliflower cheese, gratin, roast chicken...the list is endless. You can make so much just by turning a switch and putting something in the oven, but I've been told it's not exactly "cooking" as it doesn't require a any skill (unless you're doing things like baking a cake or making proper dishes (e.g. above), which I do sometimes).

Hmm I've been sitting here for 10 minutes after putting that paragraph up, trying to think of an egg-related pun, but I shall have to come back next time!

That wordsearch was rather scrambled! It was game 'ova'. Though I'm not a yokle so a couple of the words weren't so familiar.

HENce, it was amusing to see the important priorities of the UDSA Farm Service Agency.

Frankly, this whole thread is something of a cock-up.
