Finally, return it to its mother

You may have to rent a truck to do it.

Bring it to the farm and coop it came from.

It’s pretty, isn’t it? But you’re not done.

There it is, a perfectly untouched egg.

Let it sit until the sutures disappear.

Matching thread is preferable, though any color will do.

Then sew up the shell with a needle and thread.

Remember to keep the yolk in the center.

Spoon in the egg-goop, carefully.

Yes, retrieve them from the trash can.

Gather the pieces of discarded eggshell.

Look, it’s the sun on a snowy day.

It’ll separate into white and yolk.

With a little faith, the egg should melt.

If it’s not cold enough, turn it off entirely.

Set the temperature to 0.

First, put it back on the stove.

How do you un-fry an egg?
