A Moment Like This

Because I have yet to learn my lesson, and my family continually needs to eat dinner, tonight I attempted another elaborate meal.  But as usual, things quickly turned sour.  

The problem was I had two many things going on at once.  I was working three burners at once, an unprecedented feat for me.  I was hard-boiling a few eggs on the back burner and I think I must not have put enough water in the pot.  As I lifted the pot lid, I noticed stray strands of egg floating viciously around the pot.  Dang it!  I exploded one of them.  I was amused by this small disaster so I grabbed my camera.  In my attempts to get the perfect picture, I neglected my other burners, thus burning the pot stickers on burner number two.  Burner number three miraculously produced a delicious pot of Ramen, if you were wondering.  I can feel your judgment as you are adding up the components of our dinner, but I will tell you this, the eggs are for tomorrow, not to be mixed with pot stickers and Ramen noodles.  

I am including photo evidence of the finished product.  By the way, Mark says the eggs look like a picture you see in a science book labeled, "the moment of conception".  Ha ha.
