Isn't it funny how can Spanish people turn something as simple as an egg as a unit of measurement? Yes! Believe it or not, when we attach the expression "un huevo" to the end of some expressions, we really want to say "a lot".
"Cuesta un huevo"= It costs a lot.
"Te quiero un huevo"= I love you so.
"Me gusta un huevo"= I like it a lot.
Now that we are at Easter time, nothing like an Egg expression ;)
