Dear Pie,
I found this as a meaning for the word all:
8.Chiefly Pennsylvania German. all gone; consumed; finished: The pie is all.
I am very guilty of using this word in this context. |

We've gone over this; that's not true. Dippy egg means different things to different people. You may consider that over easy. Other folks consider dippy eggs to be "sunnyside up" as I would call them. Still others would consider a dippy egg ANY egg that has a yolk that is, in any way, runny which would include sunnyside and over easy, but also to a lesser extent, over-medium and poached.
Consider this next time you go out for breakfast and ask the server for dippy eggs; it's very confusing. |

Damn, now I have to think which ones it means to me, because there is a bg difference between Sunnyside up and over easy. Darn you Coppy now I have to think |

ditto...darn it now i have to think what it is for me as well....
haha!
i guess for me it's anything w/yolk.
god, eggs are disgusting when you think about it. i was in the 'science olympiad' in school and i had the bio section and i was studying the part of eggs/etc and i sat there and thought about it and it took me years to eat them again.
last night i was eating chicken and while munching on the leg i was enjoying the crispiness of the batter and was like: ew, i'm enjoying eating flesh. i had to push it out of my mind so i could finish eating.
maybe that should go on the 'random' thread... hehe... |

My grandfather had a farm out in Leesburg by Huckleberryland and one time in the chicken coop I saw a egg that had tried to hatch but died and I did not eat an egg for two years. |
