Betsy, I thought you’d like this article about a group of middle-schoolers researching food safety. They chose eggs as a topic and discovered very helpful information about how to safely handle eggs and a tip about a future solution for detecting egg contamination:

Yay for eggs!

Betsy, thanks again. Your right about G not R. Too many pickled eggs I guess.

Congratulations Betsy Kaufman a true motivator. Your eggies are easy to use, great for making pickled eggs Via organic chikens . I’ve had the fortunate experience of winning a set of eggies through EN. Thanks again for motivating me to rejuvenate a failed R3 into an R4.

Ideas in your head Adrienne? You’ll meet so many others here with the same MO. Eggies was just an idea that popped into my head early one morning. Thank goodness there’s a company like EN. Have fun, and good luck on your submissions!

Frank….too funny, but oh sooooo true! ha, ha

Betsy, I love it- thanks for sharing your story with us. I especially like how you kept it to yourself that you are the inventor and then giggled to yourself in the car. Just think, soon you’ll be in your car LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK! In Fact, the way your product is selling you might even be HYSTERICLY LAUGHING ALL THE WAY TO THE BANK!
Frank, too funny! LOL
Welcome Adrienne, you will find that everyone here is so supportive and that we also enjoy sharing an occasional chuckle. Best of luck with all your inventions!

Congratulations to Betsy, EN and everyone involved in this wonderful success story! I feel like i’ve been getting to know you all through my random peeks at the forums for the past two months. I am so grateful a friend of mine had heard Betsy’s story on NPR one day and told me about it, I’ve been inventing in my head for years with no time to take them anywhere as a busy working single mom with kids in sports (‘nuff said) …now I’ve been able to toss a few in the ring. : )

LOL…. Mary, the reason Betsy hasn’t got too see anyone buying Eggies is because she buys what’s displayed! LOL

Just kidding, you know that Besty… <:-)

By the way… I’m almost ready to get started on the Ornament I was telling you about on the phone! <;-)

Mary, haven’t had that experience yet. I might have been close to it once at Walgreens. I was buying a couple boxes of Eggies for friends and as I was checking out—there were 2 ladies behind me who pointed to the Eggies and asked me what they were. So, I explained how they worked. Then they asked me where they were in the store. I pointed to the ASOTV aisle and they headed over there. Without thinking, I paid for my stuff and left without saying anything. I got in my car and started laughing, realizing I had blown my chance!

Jerry, I think that was the day I bought the frame at Walgreens for the Harriet Carter cover. Don’t cringe, I know you’re a pro framer. I’ll wait to use your talents on something really awesome…like if I ever buy one of Frank White’s original paintings.

Michael, a huge Eggies poster?! That woman’s sparkling nails would take up half my living room wall! ;~}

Betsy,
Framing that cover was a great idea! I wonder if you could blow it up to poster size? I know if it were me, I would have to do it! lol!

Anant, EN and the ASOTV partner (Allstar Product Group) gets ALL the credit in my mind. I have the Harriet Carter magazine cover framed in my kitchen, just to remind me that it’s really happening! I still can’t get over the woman’s beautiful manicure on the cover! ;-)

@Toni….your math is right! :→

That must be the catalog where my mom saw them. She saw another commercial for them yesterday morning at 6:45. She called to tell me, but it was too late for me to see them. Woke me right up though! lol.

Betsy, this is still just the beginning!! Incredible!
