Just tell them you cook in the nude and beard nets are provided for the women who prefer not to shave.

best line of the year, just plug that line into any topic.

busting a gut LOL.

this thread has devolved into bad childhood memories. 

My folks had two chicken houses and we had maybe 300 layers.  I had to wash the eggs  and when older gather eggs and feed and water them.  It kept us in groceries at the the time while Dad worked at the gas company.

"We used one of them for an omelette for breakfast this morning."
 Just how big are your eggs?

Maybe he meant "we used one" bag?   Nine eggs would make an omelet for 4 or so, though ...

Although if you beat one extra-large egg up with some half-and-half, spread it out in a 12" pan, and loaded it up with peppers and onions and mushrooms and cheese, you could do an omelet for two ....

I did 2 quarts of red beet eggs last weekend. This weekend going to work on a couple quarts of Bhut Jolokia pickled eggs

Pickled eggs were once my favourite treat.

And then I developed an allergy to egg whites.

I miss eatin' chicken eggs. I miss eating omelettes. I miss fritatta, and eggs benny,  and meringue.

We're thinking of getting some ducks here, soon.

Duck eggs have whites too, though.   A neighbor gives us duck eggs every once in while.   BIG with big yellow yolks, twice the size of a Large chicken egg, but I'd suspect that whatever the chicken egg whites have that's a problem, duck's have got more of it .... ?

Many folks with egg allergies do just fine with duck eggs. One of the proteins in chicken eggs makes up 12% of the white, but only 2% of the duck egg white.
