I think that for now, let's just assume it was a communication mess-up, and just get things sorted out. But watch out later for a pattern, I'm wondering if he is trying to push your buttons a bit.
On a completely different topic, being such a youngster, and not a cooking one, have you separated eggs before?
Jeff, are you asking how to separate eggs? It's easy. Crack the egg and with your right hand break it open into your left hand which is over a bowl to catch the egg whites. Do this gently so you don't break the yolk. Let the egg whites flow through your fingers and into the bowl and then you put the yolk into another bowl. Of course, there are separators that due the same thing and they cost about 2 bucks at the store.
((JCJ)) As a couple others have said, you handled this sitch smashingly. Now, feel free to come here and vent
