This sounds really fun, but I don't know if I'd recognize one if I saw it. I guess when I see one I'll know?

You would recognize it, the eggs are *big* and beautifully decorated, can't miss em!

They are very bright and colorful, and they have the numbers on them. 
Lots of fun guys.  Thanks for helping me be nonproductive.

 My husband got take out Pizza for supper last night! I finally found the last one I was searching for at around 9:20 PM. Strange it was the #1 egg I had the most trouble finding. The search led me to areas of the board I had never spend time, so all the looking was a good thing!

I just wanted to see what an egg looked like, so I went to the board with the least topics, very quickly went down the first page of each topic, and in about 3 or 4 minutes I found the egg. Harvey is right you can't miss them. I am very busy right now and can't spend a few hours searching these, but the are very beautifully done.

Thanks Harvey,
I am now totally cross-eyed from searching for eggs.  I managed to find all of them, but I really had to work at it.
The eggs are beautiful Betsy!

I'm sorry, I was really lucky.  The first four took me 20mins, the one that took me a long time was #2....that one wasn't like the others.  I hope your friend recovers well and soon. Smiley

Wow, Betsy thanks for the wonderful eggs.  They reminded me of the ones we used to color in grade school, and the chocolate one made me drool all over my keyboard!  Kiss

I was so intent on finding them I can't remember which one was chocolate.  Gesh.  I'm NOT going to go look again just to find which one was chocolate.  I need to accomplish something today. 
thanks Betsy.

As a brand-new member I've been browsing all over the place, and so I found five in a very short time...  and thought, hey, this is easy, I should enter the contest....  and now I've spent TWO MORE HOURS just looking for EGGS, and still haven't found the others!  (Learned a lot about Kindles in the process though <g>.)

How does anyone here get any work done?  This place is addictive.

How funny.  Welcome.  Let me just say, mostly we don't work.   I'm just kidding.  We have some pretty productive people on the Boards.  But the Boards do become very addictive, even without the eggs to coax us.
