Organic cooking

Today I whipped up a meal of organic scrambled eggs (with cheese and tomato) and English muffins. I cooked from my friend’s kitchen. I felt lucky to have the ingredients provided for me. Also, it’s very interesting cooking from someone else’s kitchen.

Where is the cutting board?
Where do you keep the knives?
Okay, where do you keep the sharp knives?
Do you have any other vegetables to add to this?

I shared the feast with my friend who claimed to enjoy his meal. I felt very satisfied munching on my scrambled eggs. After all, just the other night I watched Food Network’s The Secret Life of Eggs.

I love organic food options but my wallet doesn’t seem to agree with me. When I go the store I pay around $1.00 to $2.00 for a carton of eggs. As I glanced down at the organic, cage-free eggs I was using I couldn’t help but notice the $3.79 sticker. Yikes! Paying close to $4.00 for a carton of eggs? This poor college student just can’t manage that kind of monetary stretch. I suppose I could take out additional student loans to cover improvements in eating or perhaps work at a third coffee shop instead of the two I work at now…
