There are very many ways of preparing eggs by frying, baking, poaching, shirring, etc. I will only describe briefly a few simple methods of making omelets. In making this elegant dish, never use more than three eggs to an omelet.
From saloon to salon, from kitchen to kirmess, from the faro table to the Queen's drawing-room, from the canvas trousers of the miner to Poole's creations, from the calico frock of the housemaid to Worth's dazzling masterpieces, from making omelets to sneering at operas, the great social lightning-change act goes on.
At that time I didn't know there was such a thing as fasting, it just happened that way. After Elizabeth went on her way, I decided to experimentally fast myself. I consumed only water for two weeks.

"And I suppose Jane's notion is that as things happened under your mother's regime, so they ought to happen here."
Marion resumed her elasticity with a grimace, made two little bounds into the middle of the floor, and there turned a pirouette. "There, mistress," said she, "I give in; 'tis you that reigns supreme with the men, leastways with male children." "Young man," said the mistress, "this girl is not so stupid as her deportment; in reading of faces, and frying of omelets, there we are great.
It'd be kind o' fiddlin' work, gettin' up and makin' omelets every mornin'." "You're an artist," said the young man. "Mebbe. Don't you think you've licked that plat about clean?"
