Happy Birthday, Dear Frozen Eggs, Happy Birthday to You

Happy Birthday, Dear Frozen Eggs, Happy Birthday to You

The New York Times
Sunday, September 1, 2024 1:38 PM GMT

Egg showers have become common on social media, but a Brooklyn woman has gone a step further by throwing her eggs a birthday party every year.

Lauren Martinez was well prepared for a birthday party in her backyard in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. She set out a tray of deviled eggs next to syringes filled with confetti; there were Eggo waffles, egg salad sandwiches, a quiche and onion dip with roe. There was also a bag of mini chocolate eggs and a tray of cupcakes, each decorated with white and yellow frosting in the shape of a fried egg.

Right before the event was supposed to start, her friend showed up with a homemade cake — “brat” green — with two fried eggs made of fondant on top.

If you’re sensing a theme, that’s because this wasn’t just any birthday celebration: It was the third birthday party for Ms. Martinez’s frozen eggs. On the invitation, which was dispatched to more than 40 friends, she called it her “cool mom bday party.”

“I’ve been throwing them a birthday party every year,” Ms. Martinez said, referring to the eggs she froze in 2021. “It’s summertime; it’s a good excuse for a party and to get together and have a bunch of people come.”

Ms. Martinez, 35, said that the decision to freeze her eggs was a difficult one for her. “I definitely spent, like, a year before I did it just feeling, almost, kind of bitter and pouty,” she said, adding that she felt as if it were a tax she had to pay for not having her relationship “figured out.”
