Powdered Eggs
 
Luddite's comment reminded me of breakfast at the Cu Chi mess hall. Powdered eggs every day for
breakfast. I really believe they were developed by Mr. Tabasco just to increase his sales. Tabasco
sauce made them edible.

I have eaten more powdered eggs in hotels at the "free" breakfast than
I ever had in the military. This isn't the super 8 either, it is
Marriott and Hyatt type places. It is interesting that they will
custom make you a waffle and cook an omelette for you to order but the
big pan of scrambled eggs is powder.

I tried that for a year. Developed a great fondness for Tabasco sauce.

I actually learned to like the powdered eggs. Took me a while to get
used to real ones again.

Your're right about the tabasco sauce.

I'll have to try that the next time I'm eating the "free" breakfast at
a Hamptom Inn. Their scrambled eggs are the best of the bad choices.
Given enough bacon and toast they're almost edible.

Before it was demolished, the Sheraton Bal Harbour put on a huge
breakfast spread buffet for early risers, and the scrambled eggs were
made right in front of your eyes. It was a grand hotel, and I was sorry
to see it blown up. I stayed there at least a dozen times over the years:

Once I snatched away the eggs, sausages, bacon, potato breakfast of a
retired gangster I knew and replaced it with a bowl of oatmeal. He had a
serious heart condition, and his wife just winked at me when I did it.
:) Sadly, he died about year later...coronary.

Someone should have done you the same favor. Then you might be able to see your toes.

It seems to be a pretty popular perk, particularly at the hotels near
the airport. We have been renting houses on our last few vacations. It
ends up being about the same as a suite in a nice hotel and you save a
lot of money on the other things like food. Usually we get good WiFi
and a movie package on the TV along with a full kitchen bundled in
that price. Some of the houses end up being huge.
This was the one in Georgia.

And you get to fix things once in a while, just like at home. Or,

That seems a bit big for two! Have to admit that since buying an RV we've never considered stay in a
hotel, motel, or rented house and before that it was mostly tents. Just pull home behind us and eat
what we want. Our other home just sits there while we're gone. Most campgrounds these days have
WiFi, and if not I can use my phone as a hot spot. Of course, that costs money so I don't do it very
often. I've got only a 1GB plan which gets eaten up pretty quickly.

I usually do end up fixing something. Last time in North Carolina I
had to get the garbage disposal freed up. I suspect someone put stuff
in there without running it (maybe just the scraps from the dish
washer). I found a suitable stick in the yard and horsed it around. It
was OK after that.

had bug juice, too. :)
