Oooooh I've always wanted one wicker in the shape of a hen

But tiny kitchen and no room on work surface. On next house maybe

(Happy sigh)

Mine are in the fridge, but I forget they are there and I now have three boxes Blush I was hoping I'd remember not to buy any more if I could see them.

I like the chicken one. I keep mine in the fridge, along with squash. dp tells me both are wrong.

Why shouldn't you put eggs in the fridge? Confused

Most of the year I keep mine in a bowl on the worksurface next to the hob. However at the moment, as it's been so hot, they're in the fridge but I usually prefer to cook with them from room temperature.

oops meant to add no I don't think getting an egg basket is sad at all! :)

LadySybilLikesCake · 20/07/2014 20:07

Smile I may improvise (p&P was just as much as the basket and I'm penny pinching Blush)

I keep eggs in the fridge and open bottles of tomato ketchup in the cupboard....apparently i'm doing it all wrong.

My ovaries....Grin

Heathcliff27 · 20/07/2014 20:09

^^ GrinGrin i'm afraid those kind of eggs are well and truly past their best here

LadySybilLikesCake · 20/07/2014 20:17

Surely you wouldn't put all your eggs in one basket? [shocked]

LadySybilLikesCake · 21/07/2014 10:36

Grin True. Looks a little better than an egg box though.

as i have chickens mine trickle in daily, and i can't find a pretty solution that allows you to add new eggs to the bottom, so using egg boxes on the surface.
so anyone found any that are tierd?

Thank you, that egg thingy is perfect.

LadySybilLikesCake · 24/07/2014 22:22

I'd get one for my kitchen but I know ds will play with it and I'll end up cleaning eggs off the floor (he's 15)

On a shelf in a little basket. I use lots of eggs and prefer to use them from room temperature. Better for baking.

WanderingTrolley1 · 25/07/2014 07:36

In the fridge (if it's not too cluttered with other crap).

TodaysAGoodDay · 25/07/2014 07:41

In a bowl usually on top of the toaster. Obvs not when the toaster is in use...
