I have just been discussing forgetting that eggs are cooking and relating a story from when eggs exploded.

That doesn't happen nowadays, because I set an alarm on my mobile phone, and this ensures that I do not forget the cooking.

If you do not have an over timer, maybe that would work for you too.

I often forget things like the sink running or how long things have been in the oven, or even that they are in there, lol.
I often cannot afind the timer either, but it's a good idea if you don't have kids that may run off with it, thanks for sharing.

Well, you are so like me it is untrue. We are looking for some special plugs at the moment, they are like a hollow tube and they go into the plug hole but if the water rises to a certain level it just goes down the tube and you can not flood the kitchen or bathroom. Well, ordinary mortals can't but knowing you and I . . .

If we track one down I shall let you know.

I agree that is a problem with the mobile phone and I don't like to put the mobile in my pocket etc due to the radiation. Maybe you could offer a reward for the children telling you the alarm had gone off?

Theones we had at school were just like bits of cut up pipe, get Aragorn to measure the plughole and go to the local plastic place, should only cost a few pence, lol!

Ok no I don't set the timer as I normally remember its Mel that overcooks them lololol


myLot reputation of 100/100. shelagh77 (968)   ranked 23 out of 8,637 in cooking  5 years ago

Yes you are responsible for a fair bit of chaos, I'll give you that. I take it Mel hasn't seen your comment or she would have got her own back whilst you were away and told us some of your little cookery secrets lol.

got to laugh ya reminded me of the time I forgot the eggs and they burnt busted and boy at the smell it was awfull and to this day I cant get all the burnt places off the bottom of the pan and youcan tell it was eggs in there lol I used to have a timer but it broke now I set stove if I think about it lol


myLot reputation of 100/100. shelagh77 (968)   ranked 23 out of 8,637 in cooking  5 years ago

Yup, if you burn boiled eggs you certainly know about it for a very long time to come or it costs you a fortune to replace the pan altogether. I don't have a timer on my stove so the mobile has to do.

I am getting better now though and burn less things.

Well while I am cooking I put the timer on for my eggs, so that it goes off my eggs are cooked so I do not have this problem with cooking eggs. Also I do have another gadget and it has salt in it you turn it over and when all the salt has gone down to the bottom of the gadget then the eggs are cooked.


myLot reputation of 100/100. shelagh77 (968)   ranked 23 out of 8,637 in cooking  5 years ago

I have a couple of those egg timers too and would would like to get some of the more elaborate Victorian ones for my collection. However, I get distracted and forget they are pouring through so I need something to remind me lol.
