Kliluk, the Spoted Lake
In the hot sun of summer, the water of Spoted lake, located in British Columbia and Washington, evaporates and crystallizes the minerals, forming many white-rimmed circles: shallow pools that reflect the mineral content of the water in shades of blues and greens. It contains one of the worlds highest concentrations of minerals: magnesium sulphate (Epsom salts), calcium and sodium sulphates, plus eight other minerals and traces of four more, including silver and titanium.
The Indians soaked away aches and ailments in the healing mud and waters. One story cites a truce in a battle to allow both warring tribes to tend to their wounded in the Spotted Lake, "Kliluk".

Gestual
The sign for "egg" is made by forming both hands into the letter "h."
Bring your right middle finger down on top of your left.
Move both hands down and out.
Another way to do this sign is to bring the right hand "h" down onto the left hand "h," then lift the right hand up an inch or so while bringing up the left hand a half-inch and then bring both hands down and apart. This second version is soft of like "cracking and egg and then lifting the egg up a bit to break it apart into your pan.

Egg Rock Lighthouse
Egg Rock, a little less than a mile northeast of the town of Nahant, resembles a whitish-gray whale rising out of the ocean. The three-acre island - about 80 feet high - can be seen from many locations north of Boston, from Winthrop to Marblehead.
The island is often battered by fierce wind and waves, and is frequently icebound in winter. The area around Egg Rock is one of many locations on Boston's North Shore where reported sea serpent sightings were common for centuries. There were many reported sightings in 1819, again in the early 1830s, and at least as late as 1875.
According to a newspaper report, one day in August 1832 more than 150 people watched from Nahant as a large serpent cavorted between Egg Rock and the mainland.

Yazidis
[...] Para além de adorarem anjos e de se baptizarem numa fonte, os yazidis também cozem ovos que às vezes pintam com cores diferentes e espalham por cima das portas, em casa ou no templo de Lalish. "Toda a vida vem de ovos. Quando cozemos os ovos, estamos a celebrar a vida", explica Shahwan, no pátio largo que antecede a entrada na sala maior do templo, a tal que tem uma porta com uma serpente negra à direita. E um degrau, que não pode ser pisado ao entrar. "É preciso saltar o degrau, em sinal de respeito." [...]

Huevos Rancheros
Huevos rancheros é um pequeno-almoço tradicional mexicano com raízes nos ranchos mexicanos. O prato era tradicionalmente servido ao pequeno-almoço a meio da manhã ou ao almoço, aos trabalhadores do campo.
A versão básica dos Ovos Rancheiros consiste em Tortilhas de milho ligeiramente fritas, ovos fritos com molho de tomate e pimentos. Os ovos são muitas vezes acompanhados por fatias de abacate, batatas fritas e pimentos extra picantes.
