How To Peel A Hard Bolied Egg

I always have a hard time picking the shell off a hard boiled egg what with my arthritus! I know there’s several videos on YuTube about blowing them right out of their little shells, but I don’t think I have that much lung power!  I saw a Martha show one day and she had a better idea!
I think the photo tells it better than I can tell you, but here goes:
run your cold, hard boiled eggs under water to get them wet.
Roll them around on your counter top with exuberance to get them all cracked up with out damaging the goods inside.
Pick off the big end with your fingernail. This is likely where the bubble is, so it’ll be easier.
Slip the edge of a teaspoon under the shell and slide.. slide ... slide!
