Happy Fall “Egg”-uinox

Today is the first official day of Fall!  Have you heard about the myth that on the fall and spring equinox, you can balance an egg on its end? The Chinese are thought to have originated this practice, and modern superstition because of a more “equalized” gravitational pull on this day. 

It turns out this is not true according to snopes.com, the internet rumor buster.  You can balance and egg on any day if you are skilled enough!  Why not put your skills to the test today!

Happy Autumn, everyone!
