Dear Reader

Welcome to my brand new blog. It’s more of an eggsperiment really. I love cooking, and I’m forever looking for recipes to use up extra yolks and whites. It is my hope to collate the recipes that I’ve already collected, and those that I find, here in one place. And to be honest, if a recipe uses a whole egg, it too will get a post.
