Toasted Eggs Anyone?

In preparation for a lesson on the food pyramid at cub scouts this afternoon, I decided to make some hard boiled eggs.  I put six eggs in the pot, covered it with cold water and put it on the stove to boil.  I left the kitchen for a minute so I could get my phone.  I had wanted to see how Oliver was doing.  So I went to my room, picked up the phone and texted Kelsie.  Then I saw my computer on my bed so I turned it on and got on craigslist to look at places for rent.  I found out how Oliver was doing continued texting Kelsie.  Then Kelsie called and we talked for a little while.  Soon I started to smell food cooking.  It actually smelled good, but I wasn't cooking anything.  So I asked Sam if he was cooking and he yelled back at me that he was upstairs on the computer.  I quickly got up off my bed and headed to the kitchen.  I WAS cooking something.  I had left the eggs on long enough to boil the pan dry and burn the whole eggs.  And you know what????  Eggs POP when they are dry roasted.  I had egg all over the place!  Guess I learned my lesson.  I managed to turn things around though by salvaging the cracked eggs and making a heavenly egg salad sandwich.  But alas, no hard boiled eggs for scouts today.
