I had a plastic rooster egg cup once - now using some kind of stoneware.

Medium boiled egg for breakfast when I have the soy flakes/nuts/bran/etc.
mix with plain yoghurt. More often it's an omelette, with cheese topping,
and mixed with a handful of chopped herbs from the garden: lovage,
parsley, tree onion stalk or chives, oregano, spignel which I thought was
only ornamental, actually it adds a curry flavor. Autumn is coming - I
should pick a lot of these and freeze portion packs.
