Potato masher v's egg

Eggs!!!!

Depending on the size, they can be around 6grams of protein each.  As they say, 'if you have eggs, you have a meal' and can be so versatile.  Breakfast, lunch, tea or just a snack.

Since bypass I can just fit 2 on a salada in (curried of course) but I love them poached with bacon and hollandaise on the side.  spinach, tomato and mushroom too but I never have enough room and right now mushrooms don't agree with me.

2 things annoy the shit out of me about eggs, peeling them and mashing them.

Here's tonight carnage.

I've read all the tricks to shelling them and it never works.  Once boiled, I drain and add cold water and ice but it NO.  I've tried the glass of water and shake thing too.

The other thing I get annoyed about is mashing them.  Until tonight I've been mashing them with a fork and it frustrates me.  While thinking about forking them I had visions of a fancy cutting thing I've seen for eggs and thought next time I'm at the shops I'll look for one.  

Then I look over and spotted the potato masher.  Enough said.
