Day One Hundred & Twenty Five: The Emotions of Eggs

“Leadership is being the first egg in the omelet.”
― Jarod Kintz

My sister works for Waitrose, and occasionally she buys a few bits at the end of a day that are reduced because of dates and so on. So yesterday evening after work she came home armed with some strawberry milk, natural yoghurt and eggs.

Lovely looking eggs! A whole dozen as well! They had been reduced, supposedly because of the date. This morning I decided to make egg and bacon for breakfast and set to it attacking the eggs and cooking them. Afterwards I was alerted to the fact that two of the eggs in the box appeared to have faces. That’s right! Faces! Now drawing on eggs to give them little emotive expressions is a fast increasing sport in the world of humorous and conceptual photography. I complete get that, it’s great – some of them even look quite funny. But getting your eggs with faces already drawn on them is even more amusing.

So that’s today’s blog! Once again the weather is dull and grey, but I will get out exploring with the camera this weekend that’s for sure! Today though, enjoy the eggs! And their little faces – and kudos to whoever has a sense of humor in Waitrose… My Father thinks that Banksy has invaded the store.

  1. This is eggsactly the sort of thing the country should be eggcited about. A little lightly battered relief in an otherwise eggscrutiatingly serious world. Love it! Supermarkets – more please!

  2. how silly and cute! don’t know whether I’d be amused or worried. how long had the eggs been watching me stare blankly into the fridge while deciding what to eat?? these two faces seem to be mocking my egg-making abilities!
