Granted my HBE are better than most as I have my own little mini egg factory out in my backyard! If you haven’t had a farm fresh egg than you don’t know what your missing out on as they are fantastic.

    I fly Turkish Airlines on a regular basis from Los Angels to Istanbul. Thanks to their delicious food I usually fast for 10 days before my flight! Ones I made the mistake of eating and wasn’t hungry on my flight. Told the crew that I didn’t want any food, oh boy the looks I got!😂 Their lounge in Istanbul is a foodie haven! You walk in and eventually roll out...

    I had a layover in Istanbul a few months ago, and spent it in the Turkish Airlines lounge. That was worth the price of the business class tickets! My thought while I was there was it was a caliph's vision of what a transit lounge should be! I can't wait to go back to Turkey.
