I made scrambled eggs today, for the first time in my entire life, and I did it without the help of recipe books. I have steamed it, fried it, boiled it, but never scrambled it, and its by far the easiest and quickest method. I was in need for a little comfort food though. Sometimes, life just simply sucks..sigh.

So what I did was to beat an egg in a bowl, pour in milk(by agaration), pinch of salt, a little pepper. Heat up the pan, throw in a dollop of butter. Pour in the egg mixture, let it stand for 20 seconds before stirring it, and get it out of the heat when it starts to solidify, but still looks moist. And voila, there I had it, soft, fluffy and piping hot scrambled eggs which disappeared into my mouth as fast as I could, accompanied with a slice of bread.

Thats not all, I slathered another slice of bread with butter, topped with a teaspoon of brown sugar and a sprinkling of cinnamon, and there I had it, another comfort food. All prepared an eaten within 15mins, and made me much happier too.

Who said that good food has to be expensive and elaborate. Sometimes, even the simplest things can bring much pleasure. Just slowly enjoying things instead of rushing and stressing...
