I love eggs -- poached, hard-boiled, fried and even in an omelet and a frittata. In our book, Funny Food, there is a section on the whimsical egg breakfasts that Bill has made for me over the years.
It's amazing that I love eggs, considering that I lived on a chicken farm for seven years when I was a kid and I ate eggs seven days a week.
My family moved from the Lower East Side of Manhattan to a chicken farm in New Jersey to escape the urban poverty for a new life on a chicken farm.
Soon after we moved to the farm, the prices for eggs dropped substantially, but the cost of food for the chickens (grains) remained high. We ate eggs and chickens every day.
I still enjoy eating eggs!
