Well, WHIP MY EGGS
Eggs are are simply hope in food form. From a simple, inexpensive carton eggs can become a homemade mayonnaise, luxurious hollandaise, a bright spring quiche, comfortable omelettes a beautiful, decadently creamy custard just to name a few. I simple love poached eggs with a little sprinkle of fresh-cracked black pepper, but homemade garlicky mayo for a home-grown tomato sandwich runs a close second. This next Call gives you the opportunity to express hope in your own way. Take a look…
