Egg. This is the theme chosen for this week's
Theme Thursday.
I have to admit, this is one theme that has had me stumped. I didn't know where to go with this.
So, I am just going to run down a quick list of some eggs that have been of interest to me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
First up is one from my childhood. I give you the one and only Mork from Ork, with his eggship:
I used to love "
Mork & Mindy" when I was a kid, watched it every week.
Robin Williams was hilarious, making Mork a truly memorable, one-of-a-kind character. I also had quite a crush on the lovely
Pam Dawber, who played Mindy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Speaking of Mork, this was one of my favorite toys as a kid:
Played with this all the time, until it was either broken or lost. Ah well. Good memories, however.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Next is this absolutely amazing creation:
The Cadbury Creme Egg consists of a chocolate egg shell filled with a white and yellow creme filling. It is delicious, and not too big to seem like a horrible snack choice. And no, I don't want to know the "Nutrition Facts", thank you very much.
By the way, does anyone else think these things have gotten a lot smaller over the years?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a cousin to the creme egg:
The Cadbury Mini Eggs are a smaller candy, made of a hard sugar shell with a chocolate filling. And they are very tasty. Could eat these little bastards by the bowl full.
Again, keep the nutrition facts to yourself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Finally, I couldn't end this blog without something horror-related, so I give you this:
This is an alien egg collectible from "
Aliens", the 1986 sequel to the hit "
Alien". The alien queen has an egg chamber in the movie, and
Sigourney Weaver's Ripley manages to destroy most of them.
Nasty little buggers, ain't they?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hope you enjoyed this rather bizarre post.
Now I gotta find me some Cadbury eggs!
