Saga of the Egg

 

I had this craving for a half-boiled egg half an hour ago.  For people who are not familiar with this rather strange dish, citizens from TLOTW love to devour it for breakfast with a little soya sauce, white pepper and toast.  It looks something like this

 

Now, I haven't eaten this ever since I was a child. Firstly, the yolk smell from the half-boiled egg really freaked me out and secondly, I'm allergic to egg yolk. So, it was a really unusual craving and I refused to go to the foodcourt and pay $1 for 2 eggs which I could easily cook by myself.  How hard could it be? All I needed was water and eggs.

 

I forgot one really small detail, how long to boil the eggs for. Oh, and did I forget to mention that my burner had a gas leak which I wouldn't have noticed had I not wondered into the kitchen to check on the eggs? 

 

In the end, I had eggs which was 3/4 cooked, a gas-smelling kitchen and a burner that leaks. That's the last time I try to save a dollar by doing it myself.
