lol Waterglass - one word - is somewhat like eggwites. It is not - it is some conncoction that is mixed with water to form this slippery, slimy, semi solid goo.:}The waterglass seals the pores of the eggshell so that the egg doesn't spoil. We never ate them raw - like in an eggnog. Always cooked. :} Barbara ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joyce Gaston Reece" <bjreece@bellsouth.net> To: cherokee@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 2:31:02 PM Subject: Re: [Cherokee Circle] More on Black Drink Because if they float they are getting to old to consume Joyce Gaston Reece -----Original Message----- From: Alli :) Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 2:20 PM To: cherokee@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cherokee Circle] More on Black Drink Why did you store eggs in a glass of water? -----Original Message----- From: cherokee-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:cherokee-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Barbara Young Sent: Sunday, March 30, 2014 12:11 PM To: cherokee@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [Cherokee Circle] More on Black Drink Hi Fran, I had the shivers reading what your Granny said.
