Grocery bucket

I'm just realizing that if I don't share these stories somehow, they are not living up to their full potential.

Last night J and I were eating a sort-of egg-drop soup with dinner and I realized that I've had eggs almost every day over the past 4 days. There are really so many ways to use egg that I had either dismissed or outright avoided.
J said that her family used to buy lots of eggs at the market; so many in fact that her mother would bring them home in a big bucket. Forget the carton, in China, they sell eggs by the kilogram! I just love the image of someone bringing home a bucket of eggs.
