THE EGG SALAD SAGA


For those that wonder, and I am of them, NO I have not found the egg salad. I am sure I didn't toss it but I am a little old lady with a forgetter brain so I must have without thinking.

Oh well...…..I am going to make some soon and have Alfie sit in the kitchen with me when I make it and he can keep an eye on me and the egg salad to make sure I don't toss it.

It has been long enough that it should create quite a stink and it hasn't. The Tupperware bowl with lid I think I used is here, but no egg salad.

But what if egg salad gremlins get in the fridge and steal the contents and wash the bowl just to drive me bonkers.

ROFL...… these things happen. Of course we all laugh, but it isn't so funny to you. It wouldn't be to me either, if it had happened to me.
I remember my first husband's dad throwing a fit because Momma left his good butchering knife on the stove where it would get hot and lose it's temper. To protect it, he gathered ALL his butchering knives and hid them in a safe place where she couldn't get to them.
When butchering time came around, he could not remember where he put his knives..... He hunted and hunted and never found them. He had to go buy new ones, and everybody knows new ones are not near as efficient as good old well used ones.
We never let him live it down.


Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

    Quoting MrsJoe:

Could he have come to my kitchen, took the egg salad and took off with it in his own bowl and figured he would somehow even his score by putting his knives in a safe place where he never found and now my egg salad and his knives share in their own little joke on both of us.

Maybe it was all a dream and there was never any egg salad there at all.

IF I WERE YOU, I WOULDN'T LET ALFIE ANYWHERE NEAR THAT EGG SALAD. OTHERWISE YOU SHOULD SET UP A HIDDEN VIDEO SURVEILANCE CAMERA SOMEWHERE IN THE KITCHEN.

I would like to assure everyone that I am as much mystified by the disappearance of the Egg Salad as Ann is. I can assure everyone that I am not responsible for its vanishing and wish I knew just where it was! You'd think we would have smelled it by now, wouldn't you?

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.

This saga makes one understand how superstitions start.
