Dippy eggs are fried eggs, over easy so you can 'dip' your toast in the yolk.

You've probably eaten them and didn't even know you were eating dippy eggs. Funny, my nephew used to call them that when he was a little kid. He always asked his mother to make dippy eggs. And that was years ago when I lived in New Jersey. So I guess there are dippy eggs there too. Hmmmm....could be an east coast thing huh.

I'm not sure if that was a typo, but they are dippy eggs, not drippy eggs. It doesn't sound as gross. LOL

Hmmmm....but then again, they might drip when you dip your toast in them. Oh well.

In Fairbanks during the winter some people actually DO use the outdoors as a freezer. I've known many a college kid to hang food outside their window because their dorm fridge didn't have enough room, or they didn't have one at all. And one guy I know has a trunk he sticks outside full of frozen food. Doesn't work in Anchorage, though- sometimes it gets above freezing here.

Funny, those are the four seasons in Alaska, too.
