Ohhhh man, I love this - and it seems perfect, and complete, as is.
But would I dare, could I, should I....
A fish out of water, a fish out of the skillet and face down on the floor, and someone important awaiting his fish -
and are the "poachers" a double entendre, poaching the eggs they poach in the kitchen?
They are whatever, whenever, wherever you want them to be my dear.
Carol Kean IS IN THE HOUSE. Is she the important person waiting for her meal? Is it a meal she awaits?
LOL
Carol Kean would say, "Get a spatula. Scrape the fish off the floor. Rinse it gently under the faucet. Ok, good to go."
I'm leaning toward the pantry chef having panicked at the sight of poaching police... those quails are mad as hell and they ain't gonna take it anymore...
This conversation is cracking me up
@carolkean I thought she meant they put the poacher's eggs in the egg poacher
