EoMEoTE#10 – The Cat in the Hat edition

by Jeanne Horak on August 26, 2005 28 Comments in EoMEoTE

I’m your host

With the most –

Will you bring me eggs on toast?

You can get them from a can,

You can fry them in a pan,

You can put them on a flan.

You can cook them with a man

You could even call him Stan,

And you might meet his sister Fran.

So use your hands, use your legs –

Who cares – just make toast and eggs!!

It’s the end of the month and you know what that means…  It’s time for the End of Month Egg on Toast Extravaganza!  Despite seriously considering a Beowulf theme, in the end I relented and went with the redoubtable Dr Seuss, he of Green Eggs and Ham fame.  See – it’s easy!!

Let your imagination run totally wild, but just remember the two fundamental rules:

1. There must be eggs.

2. There must be carbohydrates (bread, crackers, potatoes, pancakes, waffles… I’m not picky!)

Make it, snap it, eat it, blog it – sometime before next weekend would be good.  Then send me an e-mail or a link (I’m afraid I don’t feel a ripple in the Force every time an entry is posted…!) and I’ll include you in the roundup.  For neophytes, here’s a potted history, and here’s the Harry Potter roundup from last time.

So go!!  Find a bloke named Stan and get cooking!! 😉

    Yay! Something fun and exciting and kid-inspired (just like the delightful Harry Potter theme)! I’ll do my best to participate and think up something fun.

    I am so tempted to render Al Pacino from his Oscar-buying role onto a pancake or perhaps a corn tortilla that I could later sell on eBay, since he might look like Jesus…and dye some eggs green and serve up “Green Eggs and Ham,” but the fact is, my printer is out of ink and it’s not feasible.
    So just let your imagination picture my version of “Green Eggs and Ham” for a few moments.
    I’d seriously like to do something about this, since this book is all the rage with the toddler in our house right now. Oh, the commentary we manage to sneak in about organic eggs and celebrity gossip.
    I am so glad I found your lovely blog. Especially the farmers market bit.

    I have attempted a bit of egg and bread. I have also attempted a literary masterpiece (er, maybe not). I couldn’t find Stan, though.

    I look forward to Beowulf month.

    Hey there Jeanne…more fun as usual!…no problem getting my eggs to go green (with a little spinach and zucchini mixed in) but damned if I could find any green ham…so fell back on lobster as usual (here in Maine they grow on trees!)…considered Photoshopping a green eggs and lobster concoction but rhyming with lobster (aside from mobster) is a tough one…anyway, here it is: http://www.stephencooks.com/2005/08/lobster_zucchin.html
    Thanks again for hosting EoMEoTE!

    Did you say green, eggs, and ham?Happy to oblige. And no, you cannot have them in a house but in a magasin. Three guesses?

    What a fun choice. Here’s my version of green eggs – no ham and I couldn’t resist throwing in a favorite from my childhood that wasn’t green but tasted delicious. You can check it out at www DOT 4everykitchen DOT com
    Thanks for thinking this one up.

    I do not like green eggs and ham – custard tart’s more where I am …

    I really don’t think I could be any later with this entry. And it’s not really an entry, just a Seuss-ravage, really. Gawd, I’m even later than Anthony…;-)….please forgive me!
