Yes, those are the eggs that were left on the stove way too long, and thus became inedible. As was the bagel, which was left too long in the toaster.
Why? you ask.
It wasn’t because Puppy Cody was misbehaving. She wasn’t. Before breakfast, she went out as usual and calmly surveyed her territory:
Orange Dog, Orange Porch: one way to camouflage the security guard
The eggs got burned because when I looked out the front window, I saw this critter staring in at me:
Here’s Looking at You!
I got so excited that I just had to grab all three of my cameras and spent an extreme amount of time trying to figure out which one would get the best shot – and forgot the eggs were on the stove, cooking When photographing, the rest of the world disappears for me.
I’m lucky I didn’t burn the house down. Cody let me know the eggs were done just the way she likes them. Good dog.
BTW, the eye doctor says my eyes are just fine. Must be – that mosquito eater insect was tiny.
Here’s to the weekend, folks. May it be perfect for all of us.

Is Cody really so innocent? Maybe Cody and that critter were in on it. The critter created a distraction, your breakfast burned, and Cody got fried eggs for breakfast.

I just read that bagels are one of top 5 things you shouldn’t have if you’re trying to watch your weight. I watch mine go up constantly so figure I’m okay…

I stopped caring about weight years ago. The next time I have a major colitis attack, it will all come off anyway. Meanwhile I’d rather be fat and stress-free.

I’ve had baked good on fire after forgetting them for long enough. Did you know that apple pie can really BLAZE away?

No, I didn’t know that and hope I never find out. It was the smell of burning eggs that finally drilled into my distracted brain. Could have been much worse.

I’d give a couple eggs for a good photo,

Ha! People on Flickr and YouPic are actually loving that silly burned breakfast photo, which took me one try and about 30 seconds. The [deliberately] blue-tinted bug photo took me a long time, three cameras, and many, many retakes, and it’s not very popular. I just can’t win.

It was all planned by Puppy Cody so she would get the breakfast she craved, CM.

She was definitely daring that squirrel to come onto our property and make her day.
