00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:09.119
Hi teacher lunch.
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:10.560
I'm Jen.
00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:11.439
And I'm Mel.
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.640
And we're on our ninth episode.
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:15.679
I don't know how many episodes.
00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:17.199
Well, because I I have the parts.
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:18.000
We stop.
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:21.120
Well, we we're trying to continue this.
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:22.480
We're trying to be consistent.
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:26.480
And if you know us, and I think on our podcast, we're supposed to do this too.
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:27.920
Well, we do whatever we want.
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:28.879
Not look here.
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:29.839
We like to look here.
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:31.519
Okay, so it's so easy.
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:34.240
So the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna boil water.
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:35.439
Everybody can boil water.
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:36.320
Boil water.
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:38.000
It's gotta get to a real big bubble.
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:40.320
Rapid boil, rapid boiling sport.
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:43.280
So it's not a hard boil, it's a soft boiler, but it's a special time.
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.039
So I'm gonna put a little vinegar in the water.
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:45.840
Tiny bit.
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:47.280
Because you want to peel it really well.
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:48.640
Because it's a soft-boiled egg.
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:49.759
Remember what Mel said?
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:52.880
Yeah, so I'm gonna put a little white vinegar or red wine.
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:54.240
White vinegar.
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:54.719
Okay, okay.
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:56.399
Yeah, don't you have all the vinegars?
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:57.679
It would smell like Easter.
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.560
And um, it's gonna cook for six minutes.
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:01.119
Gotcha.
00:01:01.439 --> 00:01:04.959
So when it's done boiling, and this is really all it is.
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:10.400
But when I went and had it, it was already done and waiting for me by my mom, so I didn't have to wait for the water to boil.
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:11.359
It was like a staple.
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.280
Then when my kids were little, it was a staple.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:16.719
Like we wanted to go with my grandma's and have it and make it all mushade.
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:18.480
It's like I said, it's not gonna look pretty.
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:19.680
But let's go put the egg in.
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:20.239
I type.
00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:21.680
Let me see if it's boiling.
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.439
Never watch a pot.
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:25.359
Right, a watch pot never boils.
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:28.319
A watch pot never boils, so we can't watch it.
00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:34.799
Mel's getting vinegar, and now we can't see ourselves, so we have to look at my phone to see ourselves what we're doing.
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.400
So we're gonna put some vinegar in it, like a tiny bit.
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:39.680
Mel's gonna do it.
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:40.959
Just a drop.
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:41.359
Okay.
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.120
So it's almost done.
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:46.959
And when it comes out, I was saying, she's like, does it need an ice bath?
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:52.799
I'm like, it actually could sit in an ice bath for like a minute, but there is no way my mother put it in an ice bath.
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:53.439
Like, no.
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:55.200
No, she probably burnt her hands.
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:55.519
Right.
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:56.560
She just threw it under the cold water.
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:58.959
Threw it under the cold water, peeled it, and threw it in.
00:01:59.040 --> 00:01:59.760
Like, so simple.
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:01.280
So that's exactly what we're gonna do.
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:03.359
We're gonna pull it out and just just peel it.
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:04.079
Isn't that funny?
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:08.000
Like, you would consider your mother like a lazy chef, but you loved all of her food, right?
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.960
Like I would consider my mother a repetitive chef.
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:13.280
Like she just made the same things on rotation.
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:15.039
Okay, but we liked her food.
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:15.520
Right.
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:16.240
It is true.
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:18.879
She wasn't fancy cook, it was like real simple stuff.
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:26.000
And we had my grandmother next door, so like if I didn't like what my mother was making, I went right across to the right way and there was something good over there, and it was even better.
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:26.560
I love that.
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:27.280
Yeah, I love that.
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:27.759
Yeah, I love that.
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:29.759
Or if we fought, she would send us over there.
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:30.080
Yep.
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:31.039
Go by nanny.
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:32.560
One of you go by nanny.
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:34.240
And I would always go by nanny.
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:35.199
I love that.
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:39.599
Yeah, we would get leftovers for my grandma because she lived in the Bronx, so she wasn't close to us.
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.240
But like if she you know sent her eggplant parmesan with my dad, because my dad was in the Bronx, it was like Halloween.
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:45.199
Yeah, like after work.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:45.520
Yes.
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:45.919
That was good.
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:46.560
Hallelujah.
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:48.159
Did he go there for lunch?
00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:54.240
No, but he worked on the Avenue at Giordano, and Felicia and my aunts lived right down the road.
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:58.000
So my grandma would just stay there and they hang out and like play cards and stuff.
00:02:58.080 --> 00:02:58.879
So she would have something.
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.319
Bob come and pick up the you know, pick up what I'm gonna send home.
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:02.719
Okay.
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:05.439
See, so my father worked at the school in my town.
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:09.919
So he would walk to work and then he'd walk home for lunch, and my grandmother would have lunch.
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.159
I would come home for lunch, so we'd all eat together.
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:16.960
Oh, and then my dad would walk back to school, the high school, and I'd go back to the elementary school.
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:19.439
We were not that kind of family, yeah.
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:21.759
And then we would watch TV at the kitchen table.
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.039
There was some kind of game show on I think it was like password.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:25.840
Oh TV.
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:32.479
Oh that's why I know how to say the password is stileted for password.
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:33.599
Stiletto.
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:34.960
That was the one I went on.
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:35.919
Stiletto?
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:36.560
Stiletto.
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:37.360
Oh, how funny is that.
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:38.479
What did you say?
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:39.120
What was your clue?
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:39.919
No, it wasn't me.
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.560
It was Jimmy Fallon did like a thing like this.
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:43.520
Heel.
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.120
And it went up, and I was like, stiletto.
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:50.240
See, I would have said, it's gonna, I don't know when it's coming on.
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.319
Well, yeah, it could have been a couple of things, but all right, let's get the yay first.
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:55.199
Timers buzzing.
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:59.280
And it really has to stay in for six for six minutes.
00:03:59.439 --> 00:03:59.759
Okay.
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:00.240
Okay.
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.280
So Mel has the camera, so I'm not terrible.
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:04.400
She's terrible at the camera.
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:05.039
Terrible.
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:06.080
Look at, look at, look at.
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:06.879
Oh, there we go.
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:08.479
Follow me to the sink.
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:09.840
I'm gonna follow you.
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:11.439
Follow me to the sink.
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:13.039
Can you let's see where you can.
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:13.840
Look at me.
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:14.800
I'll be here.
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:15.599
There we go.
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:16.240
Bring it up.
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:16.800
I see it.
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:17.920
I'll keep it easier for me.
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:18.399
Yeah.
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.639
Um, okay, she's doing good.
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.199
Okay, so we're gonna run it under for a second.
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:27.600
And now I'm going to just hit she's off.
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.399
Turner had to look, and she's like taking it with her.
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:31.519
We need a professional.
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.759
If anybody who's available who's a professional, please.
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:35.439
So look how nice this is peeling.
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:37.040
It's probably very bigger.
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:38.079
See, that's a good trick.
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:46.079
And you don't, you have to be careful with it, I will say, because you want all of that white, and you can see it's soft boiled.
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.079
So does it need more cold water?
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.120
Now, do you can you get the bowl with the bread?
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:51.759
Okay.
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:57.600
So I'm gonna peel this whole thing off, and then I'm gonna put it in the bowl.
00:04:57.839 --> 00:04:58.959
See how careful I am?
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:04.079
I probably could take more off, but I'm afraid because you guys are all watching me that it's not gonna work.
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.000
And I don't have a garbage disposal.
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:10.800
Yes.
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:12.160
You really do have a garbage?
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:13.839
Yes! It's like a lifesaver.
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:15.279
I don't have a garbage jersey.
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.199
No, no, that's a south jersey.
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:18.000
Really?
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.319
Maybe I'm supposed to be down south, I think.
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:25.680
Maybe so I wish I promised you guys it wouldn't be this hard.
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.480
But I would stop responsible.
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:31.920
Now it's like it's very relaxing to me.
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:33.040
Satisfying.
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:34.879
It's like SMR.
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:36.079
ASMR.
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:36.879
ASMR.
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:39.040
She can't say words.
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:44.879
I found a report card and it said Jennifer is a delightful student, but she needs help in her phonics.
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:45.120
Okay.
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:46.959
Could you sit and help her with her phonics?
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:49.120
My parents would never sit and help me with my phonics.
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:49.360
Okay.
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:49.920
Look at this.
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:51.839
You know it's soft boiled because it's jiggling.
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:52.959
Now I'm gonna put it here.
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.240
Can you get me a fork and a knife?
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:56.399
She's gonna go fetch a fork and a knife.
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.959
We're not moving the camera too much because we're not good at it.
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:06.399
Here's a fork, and all she did was look at how it runs when it and she's gonna mushad it up.
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:08.639
So I smush it in there, and now watch.
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:11.759
I don't think we can get the camera to see it.
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:13.199
Mel is gonna try.
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:13.600
Let me try.
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:14.480
Alright, try.
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.199
She's gonna try.
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:16.240
Sorry if it doesn't work.
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:17.600
I'll show it to you.
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.680
So can you have a little salt, please?
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:21.360
I'm having a sushi.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:23.839
So it's just mushad eggs.
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:27.040
So this is why you give it to your babies when we were Italian.
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:29.199
She's gonna put a little pepper chip.
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.560
I mean, you could put pepper, but you can't.
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:35.759
It is so that's what it looks like.
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:37.839
All mushday, all mushad.
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:39.439
I'm gonna make mel taste it.
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:40.639
You can't do it.
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:42.160
You have to, it's changed.
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:43.600
I know, I'm sure it's delightful.
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:44.480
So here.
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:48.800
Is it hers?
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:49.680
It is so good.
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:53.439
Yes, you're gonna can I can you taste a little for me?
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:56.240
Oh man.
00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:57.439
See?
00:06:58.160 --> 00:06:58.879
Ashbet.
00:06:59.279 --> 00:06:59.680
Delicious.
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.040
Ashbet is wait.
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:02.720
I know, meaning wait and see.
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:03.680
It's gonna be delicious.
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:05.519
Right?
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:07.759
So that's MJ egg and a bowl.
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:08.800
So good.
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:09.279
Right?
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:11.199
Yeah, I just it's in your mind, psychological.
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:17.360
It is, and like I would come right before I would go teach, I would eat it because I was pregnant, literally, and then go to work.
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.639
And it holds you really nice because it has a go outside after you either drink.
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:26.160
Well, I guess I didn't care, but you get the thing, which I'm still dying to know what that thing is.
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.560
So that's um MJ's egg in the bowl.
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:28.879
Alright.
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:30.399
What was MJ's egg in a bowl?
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:31.759
I like making my mother's recipe.
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:34.079
I know, and it brings you happiness, it does joy.
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.000
It does, and I love when it tastes like hers.
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:39.759
I think next time when I know it's your turn next time, but I think I'm gonna do peas and macaroni.
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.040
Oh, I love peas and macaroni.
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.120
And I make it here and I'll bring it home for dinner or something.
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:46.160
But because I just fed it to her son, I don't think he liked my egg.
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:46.879
He did.
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:50.560
He just probably was out to work last night, if you know what I mean.
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:52.000
I didn't even know he came home.
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.319
He was on the he doesn't live here anymore.
00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:00.240
And I went down to do the laundry, and my husband's like, I think Chris is on the couch, which Chris is here too, home for spring break.
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:01.279
She had them all home.
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:03.839
And Chris was in his room, it was Matthew on the couch.
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:05.920
I mean, I said it's a full house.
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:07.759
But that makes it smoke good.
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:09.040
I won't come, it's a full house.
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:10.319
And then she I look at my house.
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:11.040
It's a full house.
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.199
It's a full house, and I forget it.
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.959
But I said that makes us good mothers because they always have a place at home.
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:17.439
Yeah.
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:19.439
Well, mine's all live at home.
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:19.839
I know.
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:23.360
We're gonna that's gonna change soon, and then they can always come back.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:23.839
Yeah.
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:30.399
And like it is comforting when I go to bed and they're all home, but I think it's time to have their own home.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:37.039
It's just more confidence building because I could see in him now, he has a lot more confidence living away from me.
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:41.120
I think the longer you stay home too, it's probably harder to get out because you know you have to pay your bills and stuff.
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:42.320
Yeah, and he's doing great.
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:43.360
I'm very proud of him.
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.120
I just we just did his tax return.
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:46.240
We said we would pay for it.
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:56.559
That's nice because we see what he's making, and it's hard to live in Hoboken, you know, like a young kid and having he's supposed to pay some of his loan off.
00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:57.279
It's a lot.
00:08:57.440 --> 00:08:58.080
Yeah, it is.
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:00.159
It is, but I'm glad he's doing it.
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.039
You can't drive in the snow unless you drive in the snow, right?
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:03.360
Right?
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:04.639
You can't learn how to drive in the snow until you're gonna do it.
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:06.000
She's got a lot of saying today.
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.080
And that's watchpot's not a boiling pot.
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.639
Watchpot, no, watch pot never boils yesterday.
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:12.399
Hopefully, you should hit the nail on the head.
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:13.440
Nail on the head.
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.159
There you go.
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:15.600
Yeah, I love I love it.
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.279
What's a good one to say goodbye?
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.600
Um it's never goodbye.
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:20.320
It's always hello.
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:21.120
It's always hello.
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:21.919
That's our own.
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:23.360
You've got a friend in me.
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:25.360
You've got a friend in us.
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:25.919
We're friends.
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:26.399
Okay.
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:27.679
All right, bye.
00:00:07.440 --> 00:00:09.119
Hi teacher lunch.
00:00:09.759 --> 00:00:10.560
I'm Jen.
00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:11.439
And I'm Mel.
00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:14.640
And we're on our ninth episode.
00:00:14.800 --> 00:00:15.679
I don't know how many episodes.
00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:17.199
Well, because I I have the parts.
00:00:17.679 --> 00:00:18.000
We stop.
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:21.120
Well, we we're trying to continue this.
00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:22.480
We're trying to be consistent.
00:00:22.800 --> 00:00:26.480
And if you know us, and I think on our podcast, we're supposed to do this too.
00:00:26.640 --> 00:00:27.920
Well, we do whatever we want.
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:28.879
Not look here.
00:00:29.120 --> 00:00:29.839
We like to look here.
00:00:30.079 --> 00:00:31.519
Okay, so it's so easy.
00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:34.240
So the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna boil water.
00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:35.439
Everybody can boil water.
00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:36.320
Boil water.
00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:38.000
It's gotta get to a real big bubble.
00:00:38.320 --> 00:00:40.320
Rapid boil, rapid boiling sport.
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:43.280
So it's not a hard boil, it's a soft boiler, but it's a special time.
00:00:43.439 --> 00:00:45.039
So I'm gonna put a little vinegar in the water.
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:45.840
Tiny bit.
00:00:46.159 --> 00:00:47.280
Because you want to peel it really well.
00:00:47.359 --> 00:00:48.640
Because it's a soft-boiled egg.
00:00:48.719 --> 00:00:49.759
Remember what Mel said?
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:52.880
Yeah, so I'm gonna put a little white vinegar or red wine.
00:00:53.920 --> 00:00:54.240
White vinegar.
00:00:54.399 --> 00:00:54.719
Okay, okay.
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:56.399
Yeah, don't you have all the vinegars?
00:00:56.719 --> 00:00:57.679
It would smell like Easter.
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:00.560
And um, it's gonna cook for six minutes.
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:01.119
Gotcha.
00:01:01.439 --> 00:01:04.959
So when it's done boiling, and this is really all it is.
00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:10.400
But when I went and had it, it was already done and waiting for me by my mom, so I didn't have to wait for the water to boil.
00:01:10.560 --> 00:01:11.359
It was like a staple.
00:01:11.519 --> 00:01:13.280
Then when my kids were little, it was a staple.
00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:16.719
Like we wanted to go with my grandma's and have it and make it all mushade.
00:01:16.879 --> 00:01:18.480
It's like I said, it's not gonna look pretty.
00:01:18.640 --> 00:01:19.680
But let's go put the egg in.
00:01:19.840 --> 00:01:20.239
I type.
00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:21.680
Let me see if it's boiling.
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.439
Never watch a pot.
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:25.359
Right, a watch pot never boils.
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:28.319
A watch pot never boils, so we can't watch it.
00:01:28.719 --> 00:01:34.799
Mel's getting vinegar, and now we can't see ourselves, so we have to look at my phone to see ourselves what we're doing.
00:01:35.840 --> 00:01:38.400
So we're gonna put some vinegar in it, like a tiny bit.
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:39.680
Mel's gonna do it.
00:01:39.920 --> 00:01:40.959
Just a drop.
00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:41.359
Okay.
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.120
So it's almost done.
00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:46.959
And when it comes out, I was saying, she's like, does it need an ice bath?
00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:52.799
I'm like, it actually could sit in an ice bath for like a minute, but there is no way my mother put it in an ice bath.
00:01:52.879 --> 00:01:53.439
Like, no.
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:55.200
No, she probably burnt her hands.
00:01:55.359 --> 00:01:55.519
Right.
00:01:55.599 --> 00:01:56.560
She just threw it under the cold water.
00:01:56.799 --> 00:01:58.959
Threw it under the cold water, peeled it, and threw it in.
00:01:59.040 --> 00:01:59.760
Like, so simple.
00:01:59.840 --> 00:02:01.280
So that's exactly what we're gonna do.
00:02:01.359 --> 00:02:03.359
We're gonna pull it out and just just peel it.
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:04.079
Isn't that funny?
00:02:04.159 --> 00:02:08.000
Like, you would consider your mother like a lazy chef, but you loved all of her food, right?
00:02:08.319 --> 00:02:10.960
Like I would consider my mother a repetitive chef.
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:13.280
Like she just made the same things on rotation.
00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:15.039
Okay, but we liked her food.
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:15.520
Right.
00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:16.240
It is true.
00:02:16.319 --> 00:02:18.879
She wasn't fancy cook, it was like real simple stuff.
00:02:19.039 --> 00:02:26.000
And we had my grandmother next door, so like if I didn't like what my mother was making, I went right across to the right way and there was something good over there, and it was even better.
00:02:26.159 --> 00:02:26.560
I love that.
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:27.280
Yeah, I love that.
00:02:27.360 --> 00:02:27.759
Yeah, I love that.
00:02:27.919 --> 00:02:29.759
Or if we fought, she would send us over there.
00:02:29.840 --> 00:02:30.080
Yep.
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:31.039
Go by nanny.
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:32.560
One of you go by nanny.
00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:34.240
And I would always go by nanny.
00:02:34.479 --> 00:02:35.199
I love that.
00:02:35.439 --> 00:02:39.599
Yeah, we would get leftovers for my grandma because she lived in the Bronx, so she wasn't close to us.
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:44.240
But like if she you know sent her eggplant parmesan with my dad, because my dad was in the Bronx, it was like Halloween.
00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:45.199
Yeah, like after work.
00:02:45.280 --> 00:02:45.520
Yes.
00:02:45.680 --> 00:02:45.919
That was good.
00:02:46.240 --> 00:02:46.560
Hallelujah.
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:48.159
Did he go there for lunch?
00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:54.240
No, but he worked on the Avenue at Giordano, and Felicia and my aunts lived right down the road.
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:58.000
So my grandma would just stay there and they hang out and like play cards and stuff.
00:02:58.080 --> 00:02:58.879
So she would have something.
00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.319
Bob come and pick up the you know, pick up what I'm gonna send home.
00:03:02.639 --> 00:03:02.719
Okay.
00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:05.439
See, so my father worked at the school in my town.
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:09.919
So he would walk to work and then he'd walk home for lunch, and my grandmother would have lunch.
00:03:10.080 --> 00:03:12.159
I would come home for lunch, so we'd all eat together.
00:03:12.240 --> 00:03:16.960
Oh, and then my dad would walk back to school, the high school, and I'd go back to the elementary school.
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:19.439
We were not that kind of family, yeah.
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:21.759
And then we would watch TV at the kitchen table.
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:25.039
There was some kind of game show on I think it was like password.
00:03:25.280 --> 00:03:25.840
Oh TV.
00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:32.479
Oh that's why I know how to say the password is stileted for password.
00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:33.599
Stiletto.
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:34.960
That was the one I went on.
00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:35.919
Stiletto?
00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:36.560
Stiletto.
00:03:36.719 --> 00:03:37.360
Oh, how funny is that.
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:38.479
What did you say?
00:03:38.560 --> 00:03:39.120
What was your clue?
00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:39.919
No, it wasn't me.
00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:42.560
It was Jimmy Fallon did like a thing like this.
00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:43.520
Heel.
00:03:44.159 --> 00:03:47.120
And it went up, and I was like, stiletto.
00:03:47.520 --> 00:03:50.240
See, I would have said, it's gonna, I don't know when it's coming on.
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.319
Well, yeah, it could have been a couple of things, but all right, let's get the yay first.
00:03:54.479 --> 00:03:55.199
Timers buzzing.
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:59.280
And it really has to stay in for six for six minutes.
00:03:59.439 --> 00:03:59.759
Okay.
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:00.240
Okay.
00:04:00.560 --> 00:04:03.280
So Mel has the camera, so I'm not terrible.
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:04.400
She's terrible at the camera.
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:05.039
Terrible.
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:06.080
Look at, look at, look at.
00:04:06.240 --> 00:04:06.879
Oh, there we go.
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:08.479
Follow me to the sink.
00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:09.840
I'm gonna follow you.
00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:11.439
Follow me to the sink.
00:04:11.759 --> 00:04:13.039
Can you let's see where you can.
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:13.840
Look at me.
00:04:14.159 --> 00:04:14.800
I'll be here.
00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:15.599
There we go.
00:04:15.759 --> 00:04:16.240
Bring it up.
00:04:16.319 --> 00:04:16.800
I see it.
00:04:16.879 --> 00:04:17.920
I'll keep it easier for me.
00:04:18.160 --> 00:04:18.399
Yeah.
00:04:18.480 --> 00:04:20.639
Um, okay, she's doing good.
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:23.199
Okay, so we're gonna run it under for a second.
00:04:23.439 --> 00:04:27.600
And now I'm going to just hit she's off.
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:30.399
Turner had to look, and she's like taking it with her.
00:04:30.560 --> 00:04:31.519
We need a professional.
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.759
If anybody who's available who's a professional, please.
00:04:34.079 --> 00:04:35.439
So look how nice this is peeling.
00:04:35.519 --> 00:04:37.040
It's probably very bigger.
00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:38.079
See, that's a good trick.
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:46.079
And you don't, you have to be careful with it, I will say, because you want all of that white, and you can see it's soft boiled.
00:04:46.319 --> 00:04:48.079
So does it need more cold water?
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:51.120
Now, do you can you get the bowl with the bread?
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:51.759
Okay.
00:04:51.920 --> 00:04:57.600
So I'm gonna peel this whole thing off, and then I'm gonna put it in the bowl.
00:04:57.839 --> 00:04:58.959
See how careful I am?
00:04:59.279 --> 00:05:04.079
I probably could take more off, but I'm afraid because you guys are all watching me that it's not gonna work.
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.000
And I don't have a garbage disposal.
00:05:10.560 --> 00:05:10.800
Yes.
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:12.160
You really do have a garbage?
00:05:12.399 --> 00:05:13.839
Yes! It's like a lifesaver.
00:05:14.160 --> 00:05:15.279
I don't have a garbage jersey.
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:17.199
No, no, that's a south jersey.
00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:18.000
Really?
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:20.319
Maybe I'm supposed to be down south, I think.
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:25.680
Maybe so I wish I promised you guys it wouldn't be this hard.
00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:28.480
But I would stop responsible.
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:31.920
Now it's like it's very relaxing to me.
00:05:32.480 --> 00:05:33.040
Satisfying.
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:34.879
It's like SMR.
00:05:35.519 --> 00:05:36.079
ASMR.
00:05:36.399 --> 00:05:36.879
ASMR.
00:05:38.319 --> 00:05:39.040
She can't say words.
00:05:39.360 --> 00:05:44.879
I found a report card and it said Jennifer is a delightful student, but she needs help in her phonics.
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:45.120
Okay.
00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:46.959
Could you sit and help her with her phonics?
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:49.120
My parents would never sit and help me with my phonics.
00:05:49.199 --> 00:05:49.360
Okay.
00:05:49.439 --> 00:05:49.920
Look at this.
00:05:50.000 --> 00:05:51.839
You know it's soft boiled because it's jiggling.
00:05:52.079 --> 00:05:52.959
Now I'm gonna put it here.
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:54.240
Can you get me a fork and a knife?
00:05:55.040 --> 00:05:56.399
She's gonna go fetch a fork and a knife.
00:05:56.560 --> 00:05:58.959
We're not moving the camera too much because we're not good at it.
00:06:00.240 --> 00:06:06.399
Here's a fork, and all she did was look at how it runs when it and she's gonna mushad it up.
00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:08.639
So I smush it in there, and now watch.
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:11.759
I don't think we can get the camera to see it.
00:06:11.920 --> 00:06:13.199
Mel is gonna try.
00:06:13.279 --> 00:06:13.600
Let me try.
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:14.480
Alright, try.
00:06:14.560 --> 00:06:15.199
She's gonna try.
00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:16.240
Sorry if it doesn't work.
00:06:16.399 --> 00:06:17.600
I'll show it to you.
00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:19.680
So can you have a little salt, please?
00:06:20.079 --> 00:06:21.360
I'm having a sushi.
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:23.839
So it's just mushad eggs.
00:06:23.920 --> 00:06:27.040
So this is why you give it to your babies when we were Italian.
00:06:27.199 --> 00:06:29.199
She's gonna put a little pepper chip.
00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:32.560
I mean, you could put pepper, but you can't.
00:06:32.639 --> 00:06:35.759
It is so that's what it looks like.
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:37.839
All mushday, all mushad.
00:06:38.079 --> 00:06:39.439
I'm gonna make mel taste it.
00:06:40.160 --> 00:06:40.639
You can't do it.
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:42.160
You have to, it's changed.
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:43.600
I know, I'm sure it's delightful.
00:06:43.839 --> 00:06:44.480
So here.
00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:48.800
Is it hers?
00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:49.680
It is so good.
00:06:50.240 --> 00:06:53.439
Yes, you're gonna can I can you taste a little for me?
00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:56.240
Oh man.
00:06:57.120 --> 00:06:57.439
See?
00:06:58.160 --> 00:06:58.879
Ashbet.
00:06:59.279 --> 00:06:59.680
Delicious.
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:01.040
Ashbet is wait.
00:07:01.439 --> 00:07:02.720
I know, meaning wait and see.
00:07:02.879 --> 00:07:03.680
It's gonna be delicious.
00:07:05.040 --> 00:07:05.519
Right?
00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:07.759
So that's MJ egg and a bowl.
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:08.800
So good.
00:07:09.040 --> 00:07:09.279
Right?
00:07:09.439 --> 00:07:11.199
Yeah, I just it's in your mind, psychological.
00:07:11.360 --> 00:07:17.360
It is, and like I would come right before I would go teach, I would eat it because I was pregnant, literally, and then go to work.
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.639
And it holds you really nice because it has a go outside after you either drink.
00:07:20.959 --> 00:07:26.160
Well, I guess I didn't care, but you get the thing, which I'm still dying to know what that thing is.
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:28.560
So that's um MJ's egg in the bowl.
00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:28.879
Alright.
00:07:29.120 --> 00:07:30.399
What was MJ's egg in a bowl?
00:07:30.560 --> 00:07:31.759
I like making my mother's recipe.
00:07:31.920 --> 00:07:34.079
I know, and it brings you happiness, it does joy.
00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.000
It does, and I love when it tastes like hers.
00:07:36.079 --> 00:07:39.759
I think next time when I know it's your turn next time, but I think I'm gonna do peas and macaroni.
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:41.040
Oh, I love peas and macaroni.
00:07:41.199 --> 00:07:43.120
And I make it here and I'll bring it home for dinner or something.
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:46.160
But because I just fed it to her son, I don't think he liked my egg.
00:07:46.480 --> 00:07:46.879
He did.
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:50.560
He just probably was out to work last night, if you know what I mean.
00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:52.000
I didn't even know he came home.
00:07:52.319 --> 00:07:54.319
He was on the he doesn't live here anymore.
00:07:54.399 --> 00:08:00.240
And I went down to do the laundry, and my husband's like, I think Chris is on the couch, which Chris is here too, home for spring break.
00:08:00.399 --> 00:08:01.279
She had them all home.
00:08:01.439 --> 00:08:03.839
And Chris was in his room, it was Matthew on the couch.
00:08:04.000 --> 00:08:05.920
I mean, I said it's a full house.
00:08:06.560 --> 00:08:07.759
But that makes it smoke good.
00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:09.040
I won't come, it's a full house.
00:08:09.120 --> 00:08:10.319
And then she I look at my house.
00:08:10.399 --> 00:08:11.040
It's a full house.
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:13.199
It's a full house, and I forget it.
00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:16.959
But I said that makes us good mothers because they always have a place at home.
00:08:17.279 --> 00:08:17.439
Yeah.
00:08:18.160 --> 00:08:19.439
Well, mine's all live at home.
00:08:19.600 --> 00:08:19.839
I know.
00:08:20.399 --> 00:08:23.360
We're gonna that's gonna change soon, and then they can always come back.
00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:23.839
Yeah.
00:08:24.079 --> 00:08:30.399
And like it is comforting when I go to bed and they're all home, but I think it's time to have their own home.
00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:37.039
It's just more confidence building because I could see in him now, he has a lot more confidence living away from me.
00:08:37.279 --> 00:08:41.120
I think the longer you stay home too, it's probably harder to get out because you know you have to pay your bills and stuff.
00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:42.320
Yeah, and he's doing great.
00:08:42.559 --> 00:08:43.360
I'm very proud of him.
00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:45.120
I just we just did his tax return.
00:08:45.279 --> 00:08:46.240
We said we would pay for it.
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:56.559
That's nice because we see what he's making, and it's hard to live in Hoboken, you know, like a young kid and having he's supposed to pay some of his loan off.
00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:57.279
It's a lot.
00:08:57.440 --> 00:08:58.080
Yeah, it is.
00:08:58.559 --> 00:09:00.159
It is, but I'm glad he's doing it.
00:09:00.879 --> 00:09:03.039
You can't drive in the snow unless you drive in the snow, right?
00:09:03.120 --> 00:09:03.360
Right?
00:09:03.440 --> 00:09:04.639
You can't learn how to drive in the snow until you're gonna do it.
00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:06.000
She's got a lot of saying today.
00:09:06.240 --> 00:09:08.080
And that's watchpot's not a boiling pot.
00:09:08.240 --> 00:09:10.639
Watchpot, no, watch pot never boils yesterday.
00:09:11.039 --> 00:09:12.399
Hopefully, you should hit the nail on the head.
00:09:12.639 --> 00:09:13.440
Nail on the head.
00:09:13.519 --> 00:09:14.159
There you go.
00:09:14.320 --> 00:09:15.600
Yeah, I love I love it.
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:17.279
What's a good one to say goodbye?
00:09:17.600 --> 00:09:19.600
Um it's never goodbye.
00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:20.320
It's always hello.
00:09:20.559 --> 00:09:21.120
It's always hello.
00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:21.919
That's our own.
00:09:22.080 --> 00:09:23.360
You've got a friend in me.
00:09:24.159 --> 00:09:25.360
You've got a friend in us.
00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:25.919
We're friends.
00:09:26.159 --> 00:09:26.399
Okay.
00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:27.679
All right, bye.
