I've done that! I went to sleep, without meaning to, and when I awoke, eggs were, as you say, everywhere -- in the burned pan, on the cabinets and littering the floor. I opened doors and windows, propping open the front door "screen", which is a full length glass storm door, in order to get the smell and smoke out. I was in the kitchen, cleaning up, when I looked down and saw a small dog at my feet, sniffing the floor. He had apparently smelled the eggs and took advantage of my open front door!
