Egg sandwich... Crab sandwich... Crabs lay eggs...
11:10 AM, Friday, 9 November, 2007
I just ate an egg sandwich. It was a proper egg sandwich from a proper egg sandwich recipe, with a little mayonnaise, salt, pepper and freshly picked from the garden lettuce and onion and a bit of mustard and pickled cucumbers and yum! A proper egg sandwich makes the world a better place, and I very much believe that they should be consumed with just that aim in mind. Everyone should eat good egg sandwiches, it gives the world a bit of perspective. This is something that I believe.
Another thing that I believe is that crabs can grow their claws back if they break off. Unfortunately I often have difficulties convincing other people of this. After doing some extensive research* I have discovered the an article in the well-renowned and reputable crabstreetjournal which thoroughly authenticates my hypothesis, and Proves Me Right. Thankyou crabstreetjournal.
I wonder if crab and egg sandwiches would be good?
I will not be ripping the claws off crabs to make crab sandwiches** because I don't think that's kind, and also because I think that then the crabs couldn't eat and then they'd die of starvation instead of growing back another claw. Poor little crabs.
Today is a day off work for me, so I am now determined to do something productive like sew a bizarre outfit, and then cook a feast for my lovely husband. And google things about crabs. And eggs. And sandwiches.
*typing into google the gramatically suspect "can crabs grow their claws back when they lose them?"
**Or to make crab and egg sandwiches, which I'm not really sure about unless the egg is in the form of mayonnaise. Speaking of which, an egg sandwich is really a double egg sandwich, because there's two forms of egg: in mayonnaise, and boiled. Weird, huh?

Eggs on eggs is precisely why it took me so long to get eggs benedict. Hollandaise is basically eggs and vinegar and it just doesn't sit well with weight watching.
And then when you finally do eat them it's heaven on earth and you could care less about what they weigh...

Dunno about crab and egg sandwiches but I do know that a grilled cheese sandwich with shredded crabmeat is way yummy.

Deeleea - See, I have never ever thought twice about eggs with hollondaise, I think once then eat. I guess it is a little weird, but nothing will stop me from eating that goodness!
HH - Grilled cheese sandwich with crabmeat sounds great. I would like to add mayonnaise, and also some crunchy lettuce (post-grill!). Delicious!
Popol - That must have just been amazingly yummy. I'm very jealous!

Drat and drool. You know what I'm going to have to do now, Sunny Jemima, eh? eh?
I'm only going to go and have a delicious egg sandwich, aren't I? Who says blogland doesn't put ideas into people's heads.
I've got a real hankering now for egg and cress sandwiches on brown bread, washed down with Orange barley water. Mmmm.

Sam - that brings up the interesting question of whether egg sandwiches should have brown or white bread? I believe in brown bread and don't believe in white bread, but sometimes I do things that I don't believe in, especially when it comes to egg sandwiches. The jury is out on this one.
I hope you enjoyed yours!
