I consider myself to be a rather patient person. I can handle crying newborns, testing-the-limit toddlers, cranky people and almost any stressful situation.  It takes quite a bit to get my feathers ruffled.

In regards to cooking however there are two things that I don’t make.  Pancakes and deviled eggs.  For some reason these two items take just the right amount of patience and attention.  I tend to flip pancakes either too early (runny) or too late (burnt).   I also have not hard-boiled eggs for the same reason. I either forget how long they were in the pot or I pull them too soon!  It’s unbelievable that I can make just about anything except these two!  My husband makes the pancakes in this family and I had given up completely on making deviled eggs.

Traveling through Pinterest the other day I ran across a pin explaining how to bake eggs to hard-boil them.  I have never heard of this method!  A perfect tutorial for wacky Wednesday.  I’m sure I might be the only one that hasn’t heard of this but this is for sure the method for me.  I can make anything in an oven!!

Bake the eggs at 325 for 30 minutes. You can put the eggs in a cupcake pan. I didn’t. I put them right on the rack with a cookie sheet underneath just in case one broke.

Recipe for deviled eggs (from Deviled Eggs).
