Boiled Eggs and Vegimite Toast


I tried to pass on a treasured memory of my childhood today - eating boiled eggs and vegimite toast. I remember sitting in the highchair at "Hebron" eating this, while mum did whatever in the kitchen.
Major failing of our lovely kitchen - no egg cups. I will have to keep my eye out. We made do with glasses and paper towel, but it did make it more awkward for Mr 4. It was a bit of a train wreck - we ended up with egg on the floor, down the front, on the table, etc, and I had to sit on my hands to not take over and do it for him.
things learnt:

  • 2 pieces of toast too much for four year old
  • 2 eggs nearly too much for four year old
  • even when given spoon, four year old will scoop out of egg shell, dump on plate and eat with hands
  • slightly soft eggs probably better (not hard boiled). Might discourage hands
