What we have here is a Scotch ostrich egg, prepared by Fraser over at Blogjam. My apologies to those of you that saw this when it was originally posted. It's news to me and, I think, totally worth a post for those who haven't seen it. (Incidentally, today also appears to be Fraser's birthday.) This melon-sized egg was boiled for 90 minutes before being peeled, coated with sausage, breaded and then baked (it's tough to find a fryer big enough for something like that). The results, according to Fraser, are a lot like your standard Scotch egg. Imagine that. There are some other great photos in his original post that give an idea of the scale of this project.

Tip of the Day

Even though the crust of your pumpkin pie on Thanksgiving turned out flaky and buttery, consider everyone "pie"-ed out. Try these non-pie ways to use up leftover disk of dough.
