It's true. We've all been there.
Real Moms decide last minute to make cookies to take to someone or to surprise their kids when they get home only to realize half-way through the recipe that they are out of eggs.
Hooray for good neighbors that can help you in a pinch, but when that fails, a Real Mom will now be equipped in what to use as a substitute:
Substitute for 1 egg
2 Tbs flour
2 Tbs water
1/2 Tbs oil
1/2 tsp baking powder
Put this in your dough in place of the egg, and continue on in your awesomeness. Works like a charm in almost all recipes (except of course omlettes, scrambled eggs, etc. You catch my drift).
Now speaking of making cookies, I've got to go get mine out of the oven. Yes, egg-free.

Some potty advice
People ask if I would ever get a pet dog, and I look at them dumbfounded...Why would I ever get a dog and willingly clean up more accidents when I have ENOUGH potty training trouble as it is? Clearly, I don't understand the joys of a dog, they say. Clearly...
No way, no way, no way. This is even better than applesauce, since if I don’t have eggs, the chances of me having anything like applesauce is nonexistent. You guys never cease to amaze me!
Funny. I just ran out of eggs while making waffles the other day. I found this great site that gave tons of great egg ideas. We used the applesauce replacement and LOVED the waffles. I never knew there were so many ways to replace eggs! http://tipnut.com/egg-substitutes/
We make almost all our cookie dough like this. It turns out great and no worries about eating the dough either!
