So how do YOU like your eggs?

The idea for this blog came to me the other night when my husband made a somewhat bold yet very needed statement. He told me that I don't know who I am. Now he says this because of my constant struggle to make any sort of decision. This comes to ANY decision- movies, food, clothes, music, parenting, ect. I once stood in the sippy cup isle for over an hour trying to decide between two sippy cups. So I decided that my husband is completely right. I don't really know who I am or what I believe. Now I have gotten by on this seemingly okay up until now, but I am to the point where it is annoying! So I am on a mission of self discovery.

I am calling this journey "How do you like your Eggs" because of the movie "Runaway Bride". There is a scene that has always stood out to me where the main character played by Julia Roberts, realises that she doesn't know how she likes her eggs. Whenever asked this question she always replied whatever her current boyfriends favorite was. She was living off of other peoples identities. So she decided one day to cook eggs in every possible way that they can be cooked until she finally realised she didn't even like eggs. Except Benedict.

So I am on a mission to find how I "like my eggs" so to speak. I am going to try a variety of different things in a variety of ways in hopes of discovering what really makes me who I am. This will range from music to religion and many things in between. Strangely enough I am starting this journey already knowing one thing about myself- I like my eggs poky so I can dip toast in the yoke. My kids think it looks disgusting. ;)
