Testosterone in the Kitchen – Imperfect Omelets

“I was 32 when I started cooking; up until then, I just ate.”
-Julia Chil

I love a good omelet. When our youngest daughter was still at home, my favorite thing to do each week was to go out to breakfast with her on Saturday mornings. At the time we lived in the tiny community of Pearl, Texas. And our nearest breakfast spots were found in the neighboring town of Evant. Our favorite was the Elk Stop.
The Elk Stop, named for the local high school sports team mascots – the Elks (and yes, they spell it with an “s”) is a combination convenience store, gas station, and lunch and breakfast stop. In the kitchen there labored a tiny little lady (I am very sorry that I do not know her name) who made the biggest and best omelets in Texas. Full of vegetables and cheese, with your choice of bacon or sausage, these omelets were beyond amazing. It was our favorite menu item (that and their great hamburgers).
While seating at the Elk Stop was available in the upfront store area, they also had a backroom gathering place next to the giant beer coolers with additional tables and chairs. This was our favorite spot to eat. We would often take our chess board to breakfast. Deep conversation and a game of chess with our breakfast omelets made for a special time each week. I miss those mornings with Marigrace. And I often find myself craving a good omelet and more time with my daughter.
While I enjoy experimenting in the kitchen and am fairly capable in the arena of food preparation, I have found omelet construction one of the more difficult culinary tasks. I have tried repeatedly over the years to build, cook, and create a good omelet, but have always come up short. Most often my attempts simply turned into mangled scrambled eggs. The hardest part being the flip or folding of the said omelet. I realize that using a modern non-stick pan is a help in succeeding at this step, but I refuse to use them. Non-stick pans are coated with health wrecking PFAS (toxic “forever chemicals”) linked to health issues and serious concerns like cancer and excessive nose hair growth. I use regular stainless steel or cast-iron pans when attempting my omelet construction. Until recently, I’d had no luck.
If you attempt to learn to make a proper French omelet, there are precise directions you must follow. Eggs are whisked just so, herbs and cheese are added, and after cooking your concoction is delicately rolled, leaving you with a custard-like delicacy, neat and tidy.
I prefer the more American-style omelet, filled with vegetables and more cheese, and typically filled with bacon, sausage or ham (or sliced hot dogs if you prefer your omelet redneck style). An American-style omelet is still rolled or folded neatly, and this was always my problem area.
During one of my most recent attempts at omelet construction I made the mistake of seriously over stuffing my omelet. Filled with too much cheese, bacon, and vegetables, when I attempted to fold over the top, the contents spilled out over the edges. My omelet looked like a giant egg taco. But it was beautiful. Over filling had solved my problem. My omelet was not tidy and neat. It was more of a he-man big truck style omelet. But my ugly and mangled omelet problem was solved as long as I over filled it. Overstuffed, all that was needed was an easy token or partial fold over. With colorful red onions, orange and yellow peppers, and red cherry tomatoes escaping over the edges, it looked great. Over filling my omelet was the perfect fix. I call it the imperfect omelet.
For anyone that would like to try this at home, here are the basic assembly instructions for an imperfect manly omelet…
~ First, cook some bacon in the oven (375 degrees for 15 minutes). Be sure to use a pan and put aluminum foil down to catch drips, otherwise your wife might yell at you. After cooking, chop bacon into bits.
~ Next, sauté your vegetables in olive oil (I use one red or white onion, red, yellow, and orange peppers, and cherry or grape tomatoes).
~ Break 3-4 eggs in a large bowl and beat lightly. If you don’t like eggs that are too fluffy or full of air, gently stir with a fork.
~ Cook eggs in another large pan or skillet – low to medium heat – with olive oil, butter, or both.
~ As eggs set, they will look like a giant pancake. Add cheese of your choice first (sharp cheddar is always good).
~ Then add bacon (or meat of your choice – sausage, ham, or hot dogs).
~ Next add vegetables. When adding vegetables, meat, and cheese, aim for one half of pan, leaving other half without filling. This will make eggs easier to fold over.
~ When cheese is melted, gently fold over half like a taco. No need for perfection here. Just flip over top as best you can and let filling spill over the edge.
~ Top with chopped green onions and maybe a dash of paprika if you’re cooking in December (red and green for Christmas).
Enjoy your omelet with a hot cup of coffee and biscuits or a bagel. This is the breakfast of champions. Happy cooking!

Medina Electric Cooperative donates $7,500 to food banks; Kicks off 3rd Annual Food Drive

SA Food Bank: From left to right – Medina EC communications specialist, Caroline Lee; San Antonio Food Bank philanthropy manager, Matt Spadoni; Medina EC board president Ken Weynand. ST Food Bank: From far right – Medina EC business development coordinator, Liandra Lopez with South Texas Food Bank representatives.

(Hondo, Texas) – 1/12/2026 – For South Texas families who navigate the challenges of food insecurity, Medina Electric Cooperative is stepping up to help ensure its neighbors don’t go hungry. In December, the cooperative donated $7,500 to two primary food banks serving the cooperative’s service area; providing vital support during the peak of holiday season.
The donation was strategically divided based on the specific counties served by each organization within the Medina EC footprint:
San Antonio Food Bank: $5,472.52
Counties served by Medina EC and San Antonio Food Bank: Atascosa, Edwards, Frio, LaSalle, Medina, Real, Uvalde and Zavala counties
South Texas Food Bank: $2,027.48
Counties served by Medina EC and South Texas Food Bank: Dimmit, Jim Hogg, Kinney, Starr, Webb and Zapata counties
The timing of these funds was critical. Following the suspension of certain SNAP benefits, local food banks saw a significant surge in demand. These donations helped bridge the gap, ensuring the most vulnerable members of the community had access to nutritious meals during the winter months.
“Our commitment to the communities we serve goes beyond providing reliable power,” said Trey Grebe, CEO at Medina EC. “When we saw the increased pressure on our local food banks, we knew we had to act. These organizations are lifelines for many of our members, and we are proud to support their mission.”
Celebrating National Canned Food Month: February Food Drive
Medina EC’s support doesn’t end with a check. To honor National Canned Food Month and restock shelves after the busy holiday period, the cooperative will host a community-wide food drive in February for the third year in a row.
The ongoing commitment has seen incredible results; in just the last two years, Medina EC employees and members have donated approximately 2,600 pounds of food.
Members and residents are encouraged to help reach new heights this year by dropping off nonperishable food times at any Medina EC office location throughout the month of February. All donations collected will be distributed to the San Antonio and South Texas Food Banks to continue the fight against food insecurity in South Texas.

Brenda Darlene Rosenauer Rowan

Brenda Darlene Rosenauer Rowan, 76, of Pearsall, Texas, passed away on Thursday, January 22nd, 2026 in Pearsall at her home. She was born 12/27/1949 to Charles Edward Rosenauer and Eula Lee Saunders Rosenauer.
As a beautiful young child, Brenda was full of determination. She was born with beautiful auburn hair that turned blond as she grew older. Her father adored her and spoiled her.
She enjoyed being with her siblings. They had great times visiting their grandparents’ farm where they could run and play in the sandy fields. She was baptized in the First Baptist Church in Pearsall.
She was an excellent student and did very well in school. She was friendly and outgoing and had many friends. She played French horn in band and was a cheerleader in high school. She was active and enthusiastic and always busy.
She completed LVN school and after receiving her license worked at the hospital in Dilley. We always heard stories of babies being named after her for the births she assisted delivery with. She left nursing and worked at the courthouse for Cecil Blagg as a receptionist/secretary. During that time, she drove back and forth to San Antonio to complete her Nursing degree and to become a licensed RN. She worked in the hospital in Midland/Odessa, Texas. They moved back to Pearsall to be near family and Brenda worked at Frio Regional Hospital until she retired, after about 40 years. She loved being a nurse and helping people. Working in the Emergency Room at the hospital was her favorite job. She must have helped a million people during her years.
On December 16, 1970, she married Billy G. Rowan. Besides the Lord as her rock, Billy was as well. And they are now reunited in heaven after her being a widow for 19 years. The best times of her life were after her marriage to Billy Rowan. They both loved children and animals.
They enjoyed spending time with their nieces and nephew and friend’s children. She loved going places with her nephews and nieces and being there as much for big events, birthdays, and more. They adopted and cared for horses, wild burros, cats, dogs and a parrot.
Brenda and Bill also enjoyed traveling and many times joined family members in Texas, Michigan, Missouri, Maryland, and North Carolina for fishing and sightseeing. They loved and enjoyed their family and the times they spent with them.
She is survived by her siblings Linda Charlene Sweet (Jim), Charles William Rosenauer (Denise), Susan Leann Brown (Leonard). She is additionally survived by her nephews and nieces: Desiree Sweet Halsor (Rob), Monica Brown Parks (Dalvis), and Brandon Travis Brown, and her great nephews and nieces: Zachary Clark Halsor, Everett Parks, Beckett Parks, and Suzette Parks.

Construction delays on Lytle’s elevated water storage facility and changes in Saddle Ridge easement

By Anton Riecher
The Lytle city administrator Zachary Meadows reported to the council that construction on a new elevated water storage facility remains on hold until August. The contractor for the storage tank, Phoenix Tanks, cited labor shortages and massive increase in demand for tank construction for the delay in the original January completion date.
Meadows said he is conferring with the city attorney on the ongoing delays. Phoenix faces a $175,000 penalty on the final bill if the city chooses to go forward with the existing contract despite the delay.
Working is on schedule for a 12-inch water line loop that would supply the completed storage facility, Meadows said.
Despite the slowdown in subdivision projects, Meadows reported that the Rosewood subdivision has completed 81 homes in its phase one project with 15 still under construction.
