To say this picture was the answers to all of my dreams would have been an understatement.  Why?  I have a lot of eggs to clean.  A LOT!!

Dang dirty eggs!!

Check the article out in it’s entirety here.  It’s about a contest where a group of kids from the ages of 9-14 yrs old have to solve a problem.  These kids took on the task of how to clean an egg properly.  They had to learn about the egg and the protective ‘bloom’ that is on it, egg contamination and how using harsh chemicals to clean the egg can get inside.  And you thought cleaning an egg was easy!

“Sometimes you’re cruising along through life and you see someone else doing something so appropriate that it makes you pause and rethink things. I’m not talking about suddenly changing religions or switching from being a carnivore to a vegan but more like you just got a gentle nudge that may send you off in an unexpected direction.”- Mike
