Hatching Seedlings - Pinterest Myth or Reality?

I love the "seedlings in an egg" thing you see all over Pinterest, so I thought I would give it a try: 

Then my roommate brought home some organic eggs that came in clear packaging that made a prefect little green house for egg shell seedlings.

And then there were seedlings, WooHoo! 

Now we have broccoli, basil, two heirloom tomatoes, snap peas, and lavender.  Verdict:  Not a pinterest myth, it works, and I got a pretty good germination rate.  I'm very happy.
