Except if they are all you've got. And they don't blow out like something with
a flame as the light source.

Flashlights are not good at area lighting. But, they are great at point source
lighting. A railroad brakeman's lantern isn't much good at area lighting,
either. Nor a bullseye lantern. But, an Aladdin or hurricane that used to hang
in a caboose so the conductor could do up his paperwork is very nice as an area
illuminator.

      Title: Bulls Eye Sandwich
 Categories: Breads, Sandwiches, Cheese, Vegetables
      Yield: 1 serving

      2 sl White bread
      1 ts Dijon mustard (opt)
      2 sl Sharp Cheddar cheese
           Unsalted butter; softened
           +=PLUS=+
      2 tb Unsalted butter
      1 lg Egg
           Salt & fresh ground pepper
      1 sl Tomato
      2 sl Peeled cucumber

  Spread both sides of the bread with mustard, if desired.
  Arrange the cheese on one slice and top with the other
  slice.

  With a 1-1/2 inch cookie cutter (or reasonable facsimile)
  cut a circle out of the middle of the sandwich. Spread
  softened butter on the outsides of both the sandwich and
  the cut out circle.

  In a skillet, melt the 2 tablespoons of butter over medium
  heat. Arrange the sandwich and the cutout circle in the
  pan. Break an egg into the cut-out hole and season lightly
  with salt and pepper.

  Cook until the bottom of the egg has set. Turn the
  sandwich with the egg, and the circle, and continue to
  cook until the egg has reached the desired degree of
  doneness.

  The cheese should be melted and the bread toasted a golden
  brown.

  To serve; Carefully turn out the egg filled sandwich onto
  a warm plate. Place the toasted circle next to it and top
  the circle with the tomato and cucumber slices. Season
  with salt and pepper and serve immediately.
