With all the recent talk about eggs, I was thinking along the same
lines- there's a lot stuff to try, and it could follow some strange
thread for a feast- like - Ooh, how about a post Lent event, with a 
breaking of the fast feast with all of the 'forbidden' stuff in it? 
With the lengths they went to to make 'pretend' eggs, when they couldn't
eat them, eggs of all types would be perfect, but it would be a disaster
for those who don't like eggs (and not just you beet-haters out there.)

On another train of thought apropos to our recent notes. I think I will
go buy quail eggs tomorrow, and make tiny, ruby eggs, maybe tiny tea
eggs, too....
