An eggselent idea for breakfast

With Buyela (the performing arts national ministry team of YFC-SA) vising, Nathan decided it was time to cook the ostrich egg he picked up in Oudtshoorn 2 weeks ago.


A few facts about the ostrich egg
- weighs from 3 - 5 lbs each (ours was 3 lbs)
- equivalent in volume to 24 chicken eggs
- though the largest of all eggs, they are actually the smallest egg in relation to the size of the bird!


We invited Robert and Leo over for the experience.

Our bowl ended up overflowing with egg as we shook the insides out!

In the end we made 11 omelets... now what to do with the shell... If only I could carve like this...

Or if I had my daughter's painting talent...

Or I could be creative with beads... 

Hmmmm the possibilities are endless...
