26 Things #7 - Used

Today I set about my normal Sunday routine, which includes baking the week's supply of Toll House cookies. As I took the eggs out of the refrigerator and looked in the carton, my 26 Things list popped into my head and I realized that was I was looking at could be seen as somewhat loose interpretation of #7 - Used! When I showed Jim the picture and told him my thought, he looked at me as if I'd lost my marbles. (No, just an egg. Sorry... Couldn't resist.) He thought I should maybe use a picture of Erin' well-used soccer ball or something like that. But I think this is a slightly more creative and unique way to show "used." What do YOU think?

    That's the most fun part of the 26 Things challenge - everyone gets to interrupt this their own way.

    I think the eggs are perfect! (and a great shot)

    Definitely use this! You are so creative with your 26 things! I on the other hand...... am not.

    I'm guilty for photographing eggs - so I'm with you on this one. Very nice perspective to your shot.

    The missing egg looks used to me! I got it right away without even reading the explanation. Personally, I'd like to know more about this "week's worth of cookies" thing though! :-)

    I think it shows "used" it very well! Very creative indeed.

    For those wondering about the cookies, I usually bake Toll House cookies every Sunday. It's just the recipe off the Nestle chip bag, but I make them pretty small (half a teaspoon of batter for each one). I make half a batch each week. Erin takes two to school with her lunch each day (one of them is given to her friend Becca), and the rest are noshed on during the week. The half batch lasts until the following weekend, when we start all over again. I've been doing this for over a year now, and Erin and Jim both love them. I actually don't eat them much - maybe 2 a week or so. :)

    Love your interpretation, and the fact that you make Toll House cookies every week. YUM!
