Here is a short and sweet Dementia Cafe CST session, just for fun.
Begin by asking members whether they like eggs and how they prefer them to be cooked?
Next, complete these idioms together ...
As sure as eggs is EGGS
Egg on your FACE
Don’t count your chickens before they HATCH
Put all your eggs in one BASKET
Kill the goose that laid the GOLDEN EGG
You can’t make an omelette without breaking a few EGGS
Walking on egg SHELLS
Smell like rotten EGGS
He’s no spring CHICKEN
Pecking ORDER
Rule the ROOST

Free range EGGS
Egg somebody ON
A chicken and egg SITUATION
Build up a nest EGG
Running around like a headless CHICKEN
Why did the chicken cross THE ROAD?
