I still need #4, #9 and #10 - arghh!

So much for work, making dinner and interacting with my husband - thank goodness I showered before I started looking for eggs

Woohoo!  My husband gets to have dinner tonight!  I found all ten and had a lot of fun doing it - thanks, Moderators!

Well bah humbug - apparently because of my spyware or something I can not get into the chat room.  I keep getting some kind of an error message!  I have searched off an on all day (luckily I work for DH at the office) and have only found 3.  Will keep looking unless my eyeballs explode first!

When you least expect, you'll probably stumble into some more!

Generally, we haven't buried them deep - meaning they're in threads that appear on the first page of our various boards.

And the hint that we shared in the chat room was...

   Each board has no more than one egg in it.

So, if you've found an egg in a particular board, you won't find any more of the ten eggs in that particular board.

You'll know it when you find one.  This is the only help I'll give  Grin .  They are in the message area.  Pretty big, bigger than an avatar.  Beautifully decorated.  Have a number from one to ten.

...I don't think I gave to much away

After several hours I have found 1, #7. This has not turned into an obsession yet, but for some reason, I seem to be still searching...
