Cracked Eggs...

I was boiling eggs last Thursday night, and I didn't cover them completely with water. I could hear a weird noise coming from the kitchen, and it took me a little bit to realize that the sound was coming from the cooktop. The eggs looked like this. Needless to say, they got tossed out. Even tonight when using the burner, the smell of eggs was lingering. I'm not quite sure how the egg actually cooked on the edges. I guess the eggs cracked early in the cooking process and the raw egg floated to the top. Eww.
