egg shapers

I love little trinkets that can make something ordinary into something very special.

These egg shapers ($3.20 - 3.50, jbox.com) are not only adorable, but easy to use. You simply hard-boil your egg, peel the egg, place it into the mold, then either put the mold in the fridge or cold water for 10 minutes and poof! a cute little egg.

Of course, some people prefer their eggs sunny-side-up. With this type of egg shaper ($5.95, mcphee.com), you simply crack the egg into the shaper while its on the frying pan. Can't get much easier than that.
