Separate and freeze the whites and yolks in useful quantities, like 
threes or dozens.

Variation on Devilled Eggs by Baroness Morgaine FitzStephen:  Witchelled 
Eggs, because she does not believe in devils.  Standard boil, halve, 
mush up the yolks with mayo but the flavoring is curry powder. I add 
finely chopped fried onions.  I made 3 doz. of these last Saturday for a 
mixed SCA/non-SCA birthday party and they were all snarfed up.

My simple green pye:  standard pie shell, a handfull of "spring greens", 
a combination of 3 eggs beaten with 2 cups of milk.  Other additions 
include:  fresh chopped herbs, alliums as you like, bite-sized leftover 
animal protein of almost any sort from shrimps to ham.  Aeddie dumps in 
a whole lot of grilled steak bits for Manly Quiche.

That's all I can do right now at work without looking anything up, maybe 
more later.
