Ham with a side of apocalypse

I was cracking eggs for french toast this morning and one of the eggs had a mutant conjoined-twin yolk. At first I thought it was cool, one of those flukes of nature that take us by surprise from time to time. But then, the very next egg I cracked? Filled with blood!* If that's not some sort of creepy harbinger of the end times, I don't know what is. Naturally Nested, all right. Naturally Nested in hell!


*OK, perhaps "filled with blood" is overstating it. "Tinged with blood" may be more accurate. Yet less dramatically fulfilling, don't you think?
