Serendipity



Was it just luck when I tried this a few weeks ago?   

Last time I made potato salad I cooked the eggs on top of the potatoes...just long enough for hard boiled eggs.  I continued cooking the potatoes. 

I usually scoop out the eggs with a spoon.

But I like to have a few smooth eggs to decorate the top of the potato salad. 






Smooth eggs, like these.

When I peeled the eggs the shells came off in several large pieces.





We have chickens.  That means that the eggs we use for cooking are very fresh.  

Fresh eggs are supposed to be harder to peel.




It happened again?  The eggs peeled easily.  

What does the potato do to the egg? 

Maybe you know.

Darn the Torpedoes, Full speed ahead!




How long has it been 



Since you have eaten a Torpedo Egg?  





What do you think?  Does this Torpedo Egg have a yolk?  And, if so, is the egg yolk round or is it oblong?

Actually, two new plaques in my Etsy Shop.

Enjoy the rest of the week my dear

Caution!





Use one of the other doors.











Snow from the roof is coming down.
Going, Going!




And down in one big loud crash. 





Only a little snow left today.




Still plenty of snow out in the fields.








I can tell that the days are getting longer.  
 Our chickens laid 10 eggs yesterday!





And my greenhouse is coming alive. 

Have a great week my dear

Greens for the Chickens and for their Owners


If you want your eggs to 'sit up' like this


You have to go to your chicken coop and get them


If you want your eggs to be this orange
You have to give your chickens lots of fresh greens every day


My chickens are pampered
I grow lots of fresh greens for them in my garden




This is their favorite green this year - a mild variety of Collards


However, there must always be lots of Greens left for us
Curly Kale


Collards and Turnip Greens



Early Cabbages growing under chicken wire and white gauze to keep the dreaded cabbage worm away.



My Garden must always have 'Zuckerhut'  cabbage,  the perfect cabbage for making Sauerkraut. 



Chickens need Greens and so do the Owners, this time in a Quiche.

Have a great weekend my dear Blogging Friends
