It’s been a relative quiet week here. My license plate was up for renewal this month, so I paid it online and got my new license plate in the mail. Tennessee opted for new license plates in the state this year. They have a pretty blue background with white letters.
I received $10 in PayPal money from Mobile Expression this week.

My fourteen meals from Mom’s Meals came this week and I’ll receive another fourteen meals this week.
Saving Money In My Frugal Kitchen
Have you seen the peeling boiled egg hack on Tik Tok? If you use a spoon to tap the end of an egg before boiling and listen for the sound change, you’ll remove the membrane inside the egg, which makes for easier removal of the egg shell after boiling.
I tried this with a dozen eggs this week and sometimes the sound came with one tap and sometimes with two or three taps, but it worked so well. No more removing half the egg white to get the egg peeled.
Since I had boiled eggs on hand, I decided to make egg salad, but we were out of pickle relish. No worries though, as I had a jar of pickles that I chopped up in the food processor, which did the trick.
Meals This Week

sounds like a nice quiet week. I hate when they send new plates - I always memorize my plate number - and have had it for years. When they change the plate it takes me forever to remember!! Have a great weekend.
Thank you, Cheryl. Ditto on the license plate number. I have my DL number memorized too. And my bank account. 😂 LOL I hope you have a great weekend too.
Thanks for the egg tip! I hadn't heard it before. I think older eggs seem to peel better for me. Your menu sounds good. Were the Mom's meals tasty? Hope you have a great weekend.
You’re welcome, Kathy. It worked really well on the eggs. The Mom’s meals were good and I ended up putting several of them in the freezer, so we will have them for a while yet.

DeleteI have never heard of that trick with boiled eggs. I am going to have to look that up.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
It works really well, Jackie. 👋
DeleteI've never come across that trick either, thank you. Does it matter which end? xx
ReplyDeleteYes, you’ll want to tap the fatter end, Joy. 😊
DeleteI'll have to tell my daughter the egg trick. Easter she had a hard time peeling them for deviled eggs.
ReplyDeleteIt’s one that really works, Vickie.
DeleteThat's a great tip about the eggs Belinda, I'll have to try that!
ReplyDeleteIt works really well!
DeleteI use old eggs and have my own method taught to me by my mother. Where is this tik tok video?
ReplyDeleteI would love to know the trick your mother used. Here is a link to the TikTok video: https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTRTo4PRc/
