Not exactly a food post, but we are swimming in goose eggs right now,

What do you do with goose eggs?
We eat them.
Goose eggs are very tasty! Mild, very much like chicken eggs, but 3x larger by volume.
Yolk:white ratio is bigger, which makes for great baking and custards.
If we aren't making a fried egg and don't need the yolk/white separated, we try to blow the egg out first. Then we use the hollowed out shell for decorating.
How do you blow out a goose egg? My method:
poke top and bottom w/ a thumb tack
use a hand drill to make one of the holes big enough to get a skewer through,poke with skewer to loosen the membrane and break the yolk sack
blow through little hole to make the egg come out the slightly less little hole
1 goose egg~3 chicken eggs ~ 3/4 cup egg, so plan your receiving vessel appropriately
Now what?
1 goose egg makes a lovely "3-egg omelet", quiche is always good, and of course I have a few other recipes....
And after a little rinse the blown out eggs are ready to decorate!
