Well, eggs usually get scrubbed off of plates--no trace, nor smell after those have been washed! However, my wife (there we go w/ her playing her Lisa Douglas to my Oliver Wendell Douglas again!) puts an egg in a bowl, at least covers it thoroughly w/ saran Wrap that at least not once has it ever exploded all over the microwave--yeh, she MICROWAVES it--no frying in a pan w/ oil or grease for her...
However, even if she scrapes out the bowl with a piece of bread, after eating the egg, (of which I tell her to always use TWO slices to maintain an even amount--I'm also that way w/ sliced cheese) there are still remnants of egg that remain and bowls that we avoid using w/ cooked-on egg left there, until over time they some-how disintegrate or evaporate into think air, because now we can eat out of all of them & she makes Laura's eggs that way, too... I never will--although our daughter protests she wants every egg cooked that way, though I refuse to, but she does give in & eat the eggs I make "my way"... (--Yes, sung to the Frank Sinatra tune, LOL!)

And typical when we host parties & gatherings at my house... I'm Dwayne Hickman yelling, dirty words & all in front of the dishwasher like he did in one of his movies--I forgot which one...! (Yeh, heard to get the Dobie Gillis out of him, and if you only knew what a Dobie I was in my day, even before I discovered that show; Middle-School & High-School, in short: MY Wonder Years...)
I'll end with my small garbage can turned so all the plastic silverware & paper plates everyone uses DON'T get put in there, but a big black plastic bag in front of it, usually with a few pizza boxes stuffed into it just to give everyone a Goddamned Hint: I WANT YOU TO PUT YOUR GARBAGE, THERE!!!! --Not hear: "David, you need to empty your garbage can" or "Why is it being turned around, so we can't use it?"... Although I put my big garbage can lined w/ a big bag smack-dab in the middle of the kitchen at the last fiesta (Laura's 5th B-Day!) and EVERYONE used that; there's no room anywhere to put my small wastebasket thetis strictly for OUR garbage which I could'a just brought down to the basement...
