« With a Wink and a Nod | Main | Reserved » Old Eggs
September 01, 2005
I think it's pretty much a given I have had my fair of struggles with eggs, so when The Aunt called the other night to dicuss my eggs, it seemed like a perfectly legitimate conversation.
"You need to start using your eggs." "What?" "You need to start using your eggs." "I just used some this morning." "Oh, that's what I like to hear!" "Uh. Ok. Why are you so concerned about my eggs?" "Because they are getting old." "Old? No. I just got them on Sunday." "What?" "What what?" "What do you mean you just got them on Sunday?" "I just got them on Sunday." "How do you know?" "Uh - because I went to the store and got them myself." "What?" "Ok. This is wierd. Why are we talking about my eggs?" "Because they are getting older and if you exepect to have babies - healthy babies - you need to start using them."
"Well who's eggs did you think I was talking about?" "The eggs in my fridge." "Why would I care about the eggs in your fridge?" "Well that's what I was asking." "How crazy do you think I am?" "Well you started this conversation. You tell me." "Use your eggs." "I will when I think I can handle them without leaving them on the top of my car." "What?" "Never mind."

EGGS! that's great. but as far as kids? that can go two ways: You can blame them for making your clothes all messy with food but if they inherit your klutziness, the ER bills will put you in the poorhouse. Posted by: MisChef at September 1, 2005 12:02 PM Hee! Is your aunt related to the dad at drinkatwork.com? (See http://www.drinkatwork.com/2005/05/conversations-with-dad-3.html -- or any one of the other "Conversations with Dad" on that site) Honestly, for asking about YOUR eggs, she deserves the answer she got. Posted by: Peggy at September 1, 2005 03:59 PM At least she didn't ask what the husband was doing with his sausage. Posted by: veg4me at September 1, 2005 04:28 PM g-r-e-a-t answer! Posted by: annex at September 1, 2005 08:07 PM This was so funny. Unfortunatly after I stopped laughing I pictured you setting a new baby seat on the roof of your car then driving off. So if you use those eggs your aunt was talking about be careful. Posted by: Duane at September 1, 2005 09:05 PM Who's on first? Posted by: Kim at September 2, 2005 09:35 AM I challenge other food bloggers to give aid to those who worked in the food industry and made New Orleans so flavorful: New Orleans Hospitality Workers Disaster Relief Fund A fund has been established to benefit employees of the hospitality industry of the Greater New Orleans area who have experienced hardships because of the devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina. Contributions may be sent to: New Orleans Hospitality Workers Disaster Relief Fund http://www.commanderspalace.com/new_orleans/index.php Posted by: jillian at September 2, 2005 08:27 PM your aunt is funny! :D Posted by: Lil at September 3, 2005 03:21 AM Hmmm I'm now considering designing some Hallmark'esque cards. They can be sent to the various nosy relatives in your life after you have finished you egg donation processing with your local fertility center. *I* don't want my eggs, but others can have 'em. Hmmmmm Posted by: McAuliflower at September 3, 2005 02:25 PM  |
