Devilled eggs for the office

My days left in this office are now a definite finite countdown to D-day. I will be lying if I say I don't feel a tinge of bittersweet contemplating the great colleagues I've encountered in this office. I don't make friends easily, nor do I seek to go beyond professional relations, more often than not. That said, I believe in respect, humour and understanding to each and every person in the workplace, and I can say, hand on heart that nearly everyone I have encountered in this firm has been pretty lovely. I will miss that camaraderie.

So I infused that thankfulness into my contribution for the fortnightly office tea, glad that I had signed up for a date that fell nicely into the month of my departure. I have to say that deshelling boiled eggs in bulk is both stressful and therapeutic at the same time. Hurhurhur.

In the end, the platter of eggy goodness turned out frankly pretty ugly, but I have to say rather tasty. They were wiped clean within 20 minutes. :)

Tried piping before the make-shift ziplock broke, all the better since it didn't look that appetising piped. Ahem. 🙊

@nua-ster: Not that bad actually, more fussing over how to peel as "cleanly" as possible. Heh.
