Pop Goes The Egg

This morning I was making a spinach salad to take with me in the car for lunch. After adding mushrooms, celery, and colored peppers to the spinach I decided that an egg would be taste good in there, too. The problem was that I didn't have any hard cooked eggs.

Because I have low standards, I decided to cook a scrambled an egg in the microwave and chop it up for the salad. After spraying a custard cup with Pam, I slid an egg into the cup, mixed it well, and set it in the microwave to cook. Because I was in a hurry, I forgot to cover the cup like I usually do. Once it was cooking I turned my attention back to chopping vegetables until I heard a loud 'pop'.

The egg had exploded, sending pieces all over the oven interior. It also threw itself out of the custard cup and onto the oven turntable..

Time for a microwave cleanup
