Beans on Toast

So I think I am funny so I had to share ;) I was talking to Ken the other day about how I felt like I was failing him as his wife in the fact that I had not yet sent him something via mail. With the wonderful technology we have now he can call and we email and haven't really had a need to send anything by post. So I was asking him what he would want me to send. He said "I want for nothing". hmmmm.... want for nothing? what about the fact that your wife is in another country ;) He said as far as material things he doesn't need anything. He can get it all there and most of it is no cost to him. So after the call I was trying to think of things that he couldn't possibly get over there. Mostly English stuff that I know he likes. So I emailed him saying oh yeah what about this candy or that.. I bet you can't get that. And I am sure that you can't get beans on toast with a fried egg **see end of post for explanation** to which he replied and I quote "well are you going to send me beans on toast with a fried egg? I didn't think so" He is so sassy!!! And grossly underestimates me. So with a little imagination I posted a package off to Afghanistan yesterday and included in there was beans on toast with a fried egg!! ;) I used Melba toast, jelly beans and a plastic fried egg :) **Beans on toast is a yummy thing we English folk like for breakfast. Though we have had it for a quick easy dinner millions of times and I introduced it to Ken and he LOVES it. It is just buttered toast with baked beans (pork and beans) on top and then to spice it up we often fry and egg and put it on top. Don't knock it till you try it! It is sooooo good :)
