boiled egg for breakfast

You can see I like a lot of pepper on mine!
@gigiflower

Sam, the things I do for you - first giraffes and now boiled eggs (without soldiers!)

@quietpurplehaze And that in itself deserves a BIG fav!!!! But you don't have soldiers? Are you crazy Hazel???? heheheheh

Looks delicious! But why no soldiers :)

You've taken Ray back to his childhood and memories of boiled egg with soldiers! (I suppose that was a 'carrot' to get children to eat boiled egg). This is a historic shot taken with my Lumix FZ62, the last one to be posted here as I am about to (try to) sell it.

@quietpurplehaze I ALWAYS have soldiers with my boiled eggs - it's a must! Because I'm on holidays before I start my new job, I've been having luxury breakfasts every day. This morning was a fried egg and a bit of bacon with some home made zucchini chutney on an English muffin. Goodness me it was divine! And good luck selling your camera :)

Super capture. Nothing like a fresh egg straight from the chicken but even better with soldiers and real butter.

@gigiflower

Egg and bacon, with mushrooms, tomatoes AND fried bread, is my favourite breakfast. (About once a fortnight! {food police}).

I thought soldiers are compulsory! Great shot of comfort food. No pepper for me though.
February 26th, 2015  
Mmm you've actually made my mouth water!! I could just eat that right now! Lovely depth to this shot.

@Cherrill

We buy a tray of 20 so there are still 18 left - how long will it take you to get over?!!!!

@quietpurplehaze ooohhhh now I'm thinking about what I can cook up tomorrow! And I apologise - I think I have caused an uproar on your project about excluding soldiers!!!
February 26th, 2015  
How lovely! but I think my boos might not approve!
February 26th, 2015  
er...boss!

@Cherrill

Ah, already at work! (At least I am dressed this morning!)

@gigiflower

It's probably not p.c. to call strips of bread soldiers, let alone dip them in runny yellow yolk....
February 26th, 2015  
Snap, an egg is nothing without copious amounts of freshly ground pepper.
February 26th, 2015  
Oh, and I forgot, the soldiers are a definite MUST HAVE!
February 26th, 2015  
Nice one.
February 26th, 2015  
That's a lot of pepper... I love boil egg.
February 26th, 2015  
Looks delicious, I'm going to have some on Saturday morning when I am home. Why do hotels never have soft boiled eggs?

@teachntravel

Well, perhaps, like me they can't cook them! Ray does ours - and if I fry an egg, odds are the yolk will break.........
February 26th, 2015  
This looks delicious, but you can't have a boiled egg without soldiers, what are you thinking.
February 26th, 2015  
@onewing

I don't know!!!!! (What I am thinking!!)
February 26th, 2015  
@quietpurplehaze ha ha, one of my earliest memories is of sitting in a high chair eating a boiled egg with toasted soldiers.
February 26th, 2015  
@onewing

That's very interesting as I seem to have few or no early memories...............................I think the ones I have are what somebody, say my mum, told me, like sitting crying on the teacher's knee on my first day at school.
February 26th, 2015  
Very nice composition.
February 26th, 2015  
Cool picture. Congratulations on making the Trending Page. Well deserved.
February 26th, 2015  
What happened to the toast soldiers?
February 26th, 2015  
Great shot, that looks so yummy! and I'm with the soldiers too!!
February 26th, 2015  
I never would have thought to put pepper on a boiled egg....must definitely try it next time! Lovely yellow yolk!
February 26th, 2015  
Bit soft for me - but I like black pepper too!
February 26th, 2015  
@ivan

You wouldn't have liked Ray's then. He said his was a bit soft - I think he must have taken it out of the saucepan first!
February 26th, 2015  
Looks yummy and pepper is good. Nice shot of your breakfast.
February 27th, 2015  
It looks very yummy!
February 27th, 2015
