What is pocillovy? Why you will want to collect this!!

Ok, I hear you groaning....not another vocabulary word!?! In this article, I will tell you what it means, and why you want to be a pocillovist!
Pocillovy: The definition
Pocillovy gees from the Latin pocillum ovi meaning "a small cup for an egg". Pocillovy is the collecting of these cups.
So...what are they used for?
Egg cups are used extensively in European countries as a serving dish for soft boiled eggs eaten for breakfast. The egg in its shell is placed in the cup, then the diner gently breaks the shell around the tip of the egg, removes it, then scoops out the tender egg with a special egg eating spoon. There are also special slicers that will remove the top of the shell with less of it getting into the egg!
