The Keek & Eggs Story

Many people are wondering, "Why 'Keek & Eggs'?" So we thought we'd take a minute to explain the blog name. Prepare yourself for some complete and total dorkiness.

My little sister, Olivia, has never called me "Kristin." It came out "Kiki," and that stuck for awhile until she shortened it to "Keek." Neither my dad or my stepmom--or Olivia!--call me "Kristin" anymore. I am now "Keek." I also can't remember the last time Greg called me by my first name...our wedding maybe? He only calls me Keek. There are other variations, "Keekstah," "Keekle," etc. But Keek is the main one.

Greg was known by his nieces and nephews as "Uncle Eggy." For some reason, I picked this up, and shortened it to "Eggs." I now fondly call him that, or some variation, like "Scrambled Eggs," or "Egg Salad Sandwich."

And so, there you have it. Dorks? Yes. But then again, you probably already knew that. :o)
