Tretiak - yeah, poached! And try to get ‘em at farmers’ market or from a roadside egg farmer’s stand. Then rush them home, poach them in simmering water for a scant three minutes, and put a couple on a slice of fried Farmer John’s ham. Serve with toasted English muffins and canteloupe slices. ---

scrambled. stir 'em up good in a bowl with a splash of milk while you melt some butter on the frying pan, then toss 'em in and scramble them, makes 'em fluffy. add salt & pepper. if feeling adventurous, melt some cheese into them. serve with jam on toast, bacon, and grits. ---

scrambled well, cooked in a little bacon grease, with diced ham…mmmmmmmmmm…I’ve been known to eat nine eggs this way. Of course, later in the day, I’m _feeling_ it. ---

Over easy, with toast for the runny yolks. Mmmmmmm. Or scrambled, then lightly decorated with ketchup. Or pretty much any other way they can possibly be cooked, as long as the whites aren’t runny. Mmmmmm. I love eggs. ---

By a campfire, scrambled or over easy, as long as there’s bacon, italian toast, and bloody marys. If we’re in Maine, the bloodies must be made with half vodka, half gin. Then… into the tent 😉 ---

Huevos Rancheros. With the red paste made from chili pequins. There used to be a little diner-style restaurant across from UNM main campus in Albuquerque, on Central, made the best huevos rancheros…mmmmm ---

Poached with runny yolks on top of corned beef hash Sunny-side up (firm whites) with hot sauce, salsa, or (and I bet I get flamed for this, but it’s yummy) grape jelly Leftover-from-last-night’s-dinner-out prime rib omelet with 2 or 3 cheeses Hard boiled with lots of salt, pepper, and butter (not marge) On top of stacked enchiladas, as the aforementioned sunny side up Awww, hell, just give me eggs any way but dry–meaning overcooked or overscrambled. I want 'em juicy. ---

Over easy, with crisp bacon (I do not want the bacon to even bend when I pick it up !) grits with butter, salt and pepper. And either toast or a toasted english muffin.

Hatched. Raised on a diet of grain and corn. Plucked, de-red-meated. Wrapped around some ham and shaved swiss cheese. Lightly breaded, fried. And served with whatever vegetable might be in season. Mm! [sub]hee hee hee hee[/sub] ---
