- Oysters must be eaten steamed, with melted butter.

- Iced tea is to be served unsweetened (slighty fruit flavored or just a hint of sugar is acceptable--soda levels of sugar are not), and never with lemon. With lime, however, is delicious.

Extra-fresh white bread only. :mad:
Egg salad is a simple pleasure and does not deserve or call for whole-wheat or any other funky kind of bread.
Plus certainly not toasting as it causes the egg salad to squirt out the sides of the sandwich as one greedily chomps into the sandwich.
And, as I've previously stated here, I like my eggs to remain in place however I decide to eat them. :p

On bread, of course :)

There you had to go ruin it by putting cheese on it. :)

Sausage patty and mixed fruit jelly too ^

Plus, only Wisconsin sharp cheddar ^

The secret, my friend, is to toast the bread very very lightly, thus avoiding the squirting egg salad syndrome. Also, the egg salad sandwich has to have a slice of tomato & a couple of sweet or dill pickles on it (I like "Aunt Polly's Pickles"). Optional: a bit of mashed avocado on the bread.(inside of the sandwich). ^

OK, I'll buy off on that. Sounds great! :)

And I read your post to Mrs. Cholula and she agrees with you 100%
Toast and sweet pickles. :( :p

As I understand it, that is a promise that it won't be any good? :)

:confused: :confused:

OT: We currently have so many ripe avocados falling from the trees here that they are being thrown away, and folks advise you to lock your car doors to keep folks from thrusting bags of avocados into the passenger seat while you are stopped briefly somewhere.

One of my acquaintances likes to eat avocado spread on toast in the morning with sugar sprinkled on top. I consider this to be very, very wrong.

Somewhat of an "inside" joke, O2K.
I posted earlier on this thread that Mrs. Cholula may well rank with jfe's sister-in-law for culinary skills. ;)
Now returning you to Personal Food Rules.


(Where's the 'Wipe Your Brow" smilie...in thanks that Mrs. Cholula doesn't read this thread....when you need it??)

Hey, no fair! That's how we get rid of our zucchinis here on the mainland. :)

Don't eat anything gray.

Don't eat anything bigger than your head.

There were many days in August at a little country church in Indiana in the late '80s that I would drive a mile down the road after church and hurl zucchinis out the window (I had tried giving them to the local food bank, but they wouldn't take non-commercial food). This leads me to another rule:



28. The only "vegetable" that should be in bread is wheat, rye, corn, oats, etc. Zucchini and carrots, with regard to bread (or certainly cake! :eek: ) should be treated in the same way as the marshmallows and graham crackers are treated with S'Mores (except that it is much harder to get a zucchini to flame satisfactorily while shoved into a campfire on a stick).

Am I reading this that it's like a sweet kind of guacamole? Sounds gross to me, too.

If anyone has an excess of zucchini and is passing through southern WV, I'll gladly take a bag off your hands. Of course, this Mrs and GoFaresBoy won't care for it for the next week as I overdose on them. ;)
