... thought this would be a good idea, for people who need questions answered, etc.

I have a question already LOL.

How do I make poached eggs? I don't have any fancy stuff for making them... but they are my fave!

Boil a pan of water with a few drops of vinegar in it. When it boiling, whisk it round realy fast until you have a whirlpool. Drop the egg into it and simmer for a few minutes. Voila - poached eggs with no fancy gadgets!!

Also, if you're having poached egg on toast, time the cooking with the toaster. Put your toast on when you crack your egg into the pan and take it out when the toast pops up.

Another tip is to use a Wok type pan because it heats the water more quickly.
