breakfast

i work at a diner. i get up at 5:30 am.  i help make delicious food for shiny, happy people.  i see a lot of eggs.  my mind wanders from monotony and sleep deprivation. 

here are some thoughts from today:

eggs are honestly bizarre.  no one really thinks about the fact that they come from a chicken's bum hole...and then we eat them. ...well, at least i don't think about it. 

how did the first humans even think eating eggs would be a good idea?

how many raw eggs were eaten before they decided to cook them?

can you imagine that day in the cave?!? seriously awesome. 

and, all the different ways! 

how would you ever decide to whisk them up and coat your bread in them and then cook it and it would be  so yummy?

also on the thought of the first humans, 

who thought to take some beans, roast them, grind them up, hot water over them, and then drink it? coffee. couldn't live without it. 

i sure am glad for all those trial-n-error kids back then. also glad i didn't have to be the one eating the raw eggs first.
