Here have an egg.

Hey,let me tell you a little story. Last time I went to a Malay wedding. At the end they gave me a bad full of cookies and then they gave me an egg. It really puzzled me because usually in weddings they don't give you an egg or maybe its a tradition or something i don't know. It is soooo funny to me because its like they are saying " hey, thanks for coming to my wedding! Have an egg." Wouldn't they know that we have enough eggs already?????? If we wanted eggs, we can go to the shops not a wedding. If you know what the egg is for please comment coz its driven me nuts!!!!!!
