Cooking. How Long Do I Need To Boil An Egg?

Yes, that above question is something I asked friends on Facebook about 6 months ago. I would always boil an egg for a long time... 10 minutes, maybe 15... wait, how long has that egg been in the water? I received some good answers this simple question, but I have since forgotten them and gone back to boiling eggs for what seems like an eternity. Why am I telling you this amusing anecdote? Well, my dear reader, I am telling you because it is a confession. I don't like to cook. No, that is not a strong enough statement. I hate cooking. But, I love eating. So, I always would cook simple things like tacos, spaghetti, Japanese curry (in the pouch and then make the rice), and, oh, did I mention tacos? So, in an effort to not always spend a fortune eating out all the time and make a real effort with this pescetarianism and eating better in general, I subscribed to Vegetarian Times Magazine. They had a discounted deal and I could get a two year subscription for $17 or so, but then they added another offer for $2 or so more I could get a third year. So, I guess at least for the next three years I will be cooking more regularly. Let's hope they have a good vegetarian taco recipe in one issue.
