Torture

[cjsmith]

Yesterday's free lunch: pasta in assorted sauces, with bread and butter.
Today: someone brought in Krispy Kremes and left them by the microwave.

I don't for one minute think other people should have to change what they're doing for my comfort, but my God, I never knew how AWFUL this sort of thing could be. I am getting a major education here.

edit: AND there's an Enforced Fun at the office tomorrow! Guess what we're having! Pizza and ice cream! I think I feel an attack of bubonic plague coming on. *eyeroll*

I do Yet Another Variant on the frittata theme. I mix the eggs with some amount of cream or milk (are those okay?), and add around a quarter teaspoon of baking powder per 6-8 eggs. This helps the whole thing puff up very nicely. Fractionalize as necessary for fewer eggs.

I cook it mostly on the stovetop, then grate some hard cheese on top and pop it under the oven broiler. Yep. Flipping an 8-egg frittata in the pan takes more skill than I've got!

For fillings, my favorites are (1) onion, garlic, and zucchini slices cooked until brown, and (2) spinach and feta cheese. The latter would also be good with a few diced tomatoes in it....
