Eggs Is Eggs

So we tried some different eggs a couple of days ago... they were very small! I wasn't sure what they were when I bought them, but we found out that they are quail eggs. We hard boiled them, and ate them for lunch. The shells seemed to be thinner, but they peeled just like a chicken egg, and if the taste was any different, it was nearly imperceptible. An egg in the mouth is worth two in the hand... isn't that how the saying goes?! I loved how the speckles and spots on the quail eggs were different on each egg. Very pretty! I would like to have a little bowl of them on display. :-)

... make a small hole with a toothpick on the top and then the bottom and blow air to remove the actual inside part... then wash with water, dry, and voila-- eggs (very fragil though) for display...
