A Painted Stork sitting on her eggs at Vedanthangal Bird Santuary
Just the other day I was talking to an old friend when we discovered something new about ourselves. We lovvvvved eggs.
I told her how one day I had called out, ‘Help! Help! Someone please save me!’ Curiosity taking the better of them, the L&M and the Second Born had poked their heads into the kitchen. They burst out laughing when they heard my indignant answer: “These boiled eggs are tempting me to gobble them up!”
My friend then shared her own story, the time she had succumbed to just that sort of temptation and popped one whole boiled egg into her mouth while shelling them. Unfortunately her husband had walked in right then and asked her something to which she was unable to answer owing to her mouth being full. Her family has not stopped teasing her about it to date.
For the next ten minutes we talked nothing but eggs, eggs and more eggs, the different ways of cooking them and which forms we liked best, before finally taking leave of each other. So tell me, do YOU like eggs, and if yes, in what form?

Cool story! We love eggs too lol
I have company, lol. Thanks. 🙂
I love eggs as long as they arent runny…So boiled, scrambled, omlette, vege egg, egg roll anything goes as long as it isnt runny.
I don’t even wait to sprinkle salt or pepper on boiled egg at times. Nom nom nom nom 😉
Hard boiled om hot buttered toast.
That sounds divine! 🙂
Funny stories! I like eggs any which way, and any time of day. 🙂
Haha, that’s me too! Thanks. 🙂
I love eggs but decidedly prefer them runny – soft boiled, sunny side up, soft poached eggs Benedict – yum, yum, YUM!
Sunny side up is a favorite of mine 🙂 Decidedly yum.
I used to love eggs, but can’t seem to stand them these days. I wonder if there is a hormonal component to my sudden aversion to eggs.
That means there’s a chance I could go off eggs too in case it happened to me? Interesting!
I love eggs that are runny – poached, fried, boiled. Or scrambled eggs that aren’t over-cooked. Though I make an exception for a pie that I grew up eating, that just has whole eggs in pastry, with maybe cheese and bacon. Eaten cold, it is irresistible.
The pie sounds divine! 🙂
I am an egg lover too 🙂 I can have them in any form 😛
Welcome to the club! ❤
Ooh, I like eggs, too. Had some poached eggs (benedict) for lunch today, as a matter of fact. Yum!
Your stories made me smile.
Lovely. Any time is egg time 🙂 Glad I could make you smile. Welcome to Shail’s Nest 🙂
