I have a mortar and pestle.  I use flax in breads-loaf bread, muffins, 
etc.  In addition to adding those Omega fatty acids, I believe it helps 
my concentration and focus.  I have a mason jar full of them on the 
kitchen counter.  I will try grinding them.  Eggs...they are good on 
eggs? What veggies?
