Exactly how I do my eggs too! They do come out perfect every time! I used to boil the heck out of them and they would become rocks. But these are still a little soft. Love them. Especially since all I have to do is boil and peel them and hubby has a quick breakfast on the go. He hates the yellow so this is much easier than an egg white omelet at 6 am.



Didn't buy this one yet but I love it too!
I keep them for breakfasts on the run, a late night snack if the kiddo wakes up to eat or even for egg salad at lunch time. They are just SO convenient!

I have a wedding coming up in May and I love this dress. I think I should be in good enough shape by then to wear it laugh out loud

But you know when you order it the next day will be xx% off clothing. It's just my luck anyway! Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

nod I agree. It's so weird that I only buy a lot of them for Easter. Eggs are dirt cheap and when made ahead of time a quick lowfat snack/breakfast. I need to buy them more often and keep them on hand.

~ Happy Spring Everyone ~
The sights, the smells, the sounds- I heart it ! Easter, Passover, Spring Renewal, whatever you may celebrate - best wishes to you all.

Also, thanks for the codes and the ideas ladies~ so great that one is finally working on the sports bras and I'm trying out that wireless push-up one too! Only thing I'm sad about is that I wrenched my back 2 days ago and haven't been able to move much. I was hoping I'd be able to wear my cute ruffly heels to my In-laws Easter dinner & brunch, but I'll be shuffling in whatever's lying next to the door hehee. Ahh wells. Rock your spring/summer goodies ladies Rock

I just bought it medstudent. Hope it's cute.

Gh- if you're using the same codes do 2. That's my rule.
Whew, I'm so glad I asked, before placing more orders last night. Will it be safe to place 2 more today?

Quote from CrazyCatJade :
Actually, one of the things to make them easier to peel is to buy your eggs a couple of days ahead of time and leave them in the fridge 2 - 3 days or more before you boil them. Fresh eggs will always be heard to peel. The longer they sit, the better.
I'll have to keep this in mind. We're bad to buy our groceries the same day we're consuming them. I need to remember to get the eggs earlier.

Quote from Tizzylicious :
Not when they bicker all night because one thinks she is too cool to hang out with her sister. :rolleyes :

Sweety you can't contain them in a small, come on now they have to breathe! ; )
I think all siblings fight over that. The oldest always gets tired of having the youngest around.

Yeah, I got a good laugh out of that one. Their size charts need work. laugh out loud

Quote from bradedup :
I wanted to give a quick thanks to everyone in this thread for pointing out a lot of nice deals over the past few weeks. Everyone has been very helpful with any questions I've had.

But for now, I'm going to try and take my leave from this thread as I seem to spend too much money as a consequence. : ) My boyfriend directed me to this website and this thread in particular and it has been a blessing and a disaster for a college student budget. Haha.

I ll probably stop back in if I need something so I can look for recent deals, but other than that I'm going to try to wean myself off.

Thanks again and have a nice Easter!
Now that you've found us, don't be a stranger. Smilie

I didn't realize you had a bad back too. I hurt mine again early in the week. We had to change our plans too. We were going out to eat for Easter. Instead we're getting Japanese take-out. Nothing says Easter like sushi. laugh out loud I hope you get better soon. hug Bad backs are no fun. Frown

The two orders placed yesterday in my DH's acct. say Payment Pending. What does that mean? Am I in trouble?EEK! I used an SRC & the bra code on a sports bra & a PINK bralette. The CC is good, so that's not the problem. FWIW, the orders in my acct. say Processed & In Process. I've never seen a Payment Pending order status.

Ha, I couldn't boil them the day I bought them if I tried. I've been so busy AND lazy lately. Back to work next week so that will all change and I have to become a PRO at time management. I have to leave the house no later than 6:45 (more like 6:30) and before I had her, I never even got up until 7!! LOL!

We were supposed to go to the in laws today. They live an hour and 15 minutes away without traffic, and dinner isn't until 5. Mind you, no one has come to visit us since my daughter was 3 weeks old and we keep going out there, so yesterday my hubby got irritated and just doesn't feel like driving. (I don't blame him, he even worked yesterday!) So we're giving them some BS story about DD being up all night fussy and not feeling safe to drive on no sleep and I'm making ribeyes and hanging out on the couch Smilie Yeah us! Sushi sounds SO good.

I'm sorry it isn't what you guys wanted to do, but try to make the best of it!

Hope everyone else is having a good easter - my DD says "Happy Easter" to everyone:

I saw that on a few orders last year with SRC's and I never had an issue - hope everything works OK for you!

If anyone would like to trade for a FB $10 off $50 (to combine with SRC for $20 off), please PM me. I'm looking for a SRC.

Thanks.

Ouch, sorry to hear about your back. You'll just have to go somewhere special so you can wear those heels when you are feeling better. Wink

I just finished trying to peel a dozen eggs, two days isn't long enough. No I bought them a week ago and had a heck of a time getting those shells off. I read somewhere after you "boil" them drain, then rack them against the side of the pan to crack, pour ice and water over them to cool. Its supposed to make peeling easier. Of course you can't do that when dyeing them so I'll have to try this next time I make them.

I'd take Japanese takeout over ham any day. Secret Hope your back feels better soon.

The best laid plans...... My DH & DS went to get our food & the restaurant was closed. Confused Why would a Japanese restaurant close on Easter? It's usually open on Sunday. We're now having Chinese. It wasn't what we wanted, but beggars can't be choosers. My DH said he ordered enough for a feast to make up for it. Who knows what he'll come home with? We may be eating Chinese all week. laugh out loud

Your DD is adorable. She looks so cute in that outfit. Smilie

I hope it's nothing major with my orders. The order status says, "We have been unable to gain payment authorization for your order." I know the CC isn't the problem. Hopefully, they'll clear the SRC & send the orders through. I'm afraid to place any more orders now though.
