And I already miss my XL. I spent an hour talking to her this morning telling her my wife is making me leave her, but it is only temporary.  We shared jokes, had a few laughs, and looked at pictures of cooks. I think she understands and we can't wait to reunite. :((

    Absence makes the heart grow fonder...Add some Absolute to that and you'll be sending your XL flowers in a few days.

    Wow man!  We are a bunch of freaks aren't we??? (me included)

    I tell my wife It's an "EGG THING", you wouldn't understand.  But the more she eats from my cooks, the more she understands.........

    I need a Mini or a Small for this reason alone.

    My wife understands as well. She certainly doesn't mind me doing to cooking! :))

    Enjoy vacation.. hopefully while you are gone your egg is faithful. It would kill me to come home to my egg slow cooking a shoulder for someone else. Searing steaks I could forgive, but a low and slow would kill me.

    You're gonna spend vacation thinking of and planning all the cooks you're gonna do when you get home.

    But it would be nice to come home & found your egg had a small or mini while you were gone.  lol

    You guys crack me up. The birth of a mini or small would be amazing! Seeing someone touch my egg would result in a criminal sexual abuse report.

    I am going on vacation in a couple of weeks to my parents' beach house. That is the good part. The bad part is I will be stuck with a gas grill there for a week while my egg sits at home lonely. Oh the humanity.

    Sometimes vacations are nice to get the creative juices flowing again for your cooks. Not to mention after being away for awhile, the food tastes even better coming off the egg when you get home. Enjoy your vacation.

    Yea, but then the XL will get jealous.

    LOL! Some of the comments on here. We took the wife's Volvo XC60. Even a mini should be pushing it for space. I will love, but I miss her!
