rest your egg bag

Jun 27, 2011

As kids, Mom would often say to Scott and me, “Rest your egg bags.” I know it meant that we were supposed to calm down, but still have no clue where in the world that phrase originated. So I asked Mom…

She said she has no clue where the phrase originated either, but it’s something that her mother always said to her. So I Google it. Nada. Nothing. The worldwide web doesn’t know what happens when you rest your egg bag.

So I have to ask…

Have any of you ever been told to “rest your egg bag”?
