Egg with a Hat Breakfast

I was getting ready to make the girls eggs and toast for breakfast, when Chris suggested that I make them eggs with a hat.  We haven't done this before, so Chris explained to me what he meant and I attempted it.  I'd heard this done before, but not with this name.  I toasted the bread slices in the pan (no toaster) and then cut a good sized circle out of them, put them back in the pan (one at a time of course, as it's a very small pan) and cracked the egg in the hole.  The idea is to have a finished product where the circle you've cut out of he bread acts as the 'hat' for the yolk of the egg that has been cooked into the bread slice.  Then you can take the hat and dip it into the center of the (hopefully) dippy yolk.  Even though the finished product of my first attempts at this didn't come out exactly as I'd pictured, the girls were still thrilled with the fun breakfast, even Abby, who usually requests her yolk cooked all the way.

Hi Laura (and family),
On behalf of the bookclub, I'm writing to say we miss you :) Your trip has been sounding like a lot of fun, quite the learning experience. I've enjoyed reading about it. I also wanted to say that Pam makes her eggs like this but calls it Eggs in a Foxhole (or something like that. I think they called it that since she used to work at a place called the Foxfire.) Anyway. enjoy the rest of your trip!! Hope to hear from you soon!!
