Sounds heavenly.<br /><br />Lindaraxa: Reggie aspires to be a farmer of the most gentlemanly sort, where the wearing of la Belgiques is a prerequisite. He is not so sure about his desire to take on the regular milkin' of the cows, a job best left to the saucy milking maidens who are more suitable for such activities than he.<br /><br />For the Love, LPC, and MFR: Thank you<br /><br />Architect: There is little more beautiful than a bowl of lovely eggs on one's kitchen counter.Reggie Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04044215790585354363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-14986529374574995702010-10-13T20:15:41.897-04:002010-10-13T20:15:41.897-04:00In the late 1950s, MD bought fresh eggs weekly fro...In the late 1950s, MD bought fresh eggs weekly from a friend who had Aurucana chickens. Not only did they have the beautiful blue shells that Martha Stewart later made famous, the yolks were frequently double and a very deep shade of yellow. They made the very best french toast.<br />These days, I also purchase my eggs at the local farmers' markets. The farmers are always quite happy to have their cartons returned for re-use.Cate Fitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12835720513248934609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-11777218697348602442010-10-13T17:22:07.928-04:002010-10-13T17:22:07.928-04:00Truth in advertising.

And, I thought that Reggie was au naturel.....how the computer can deceive!<br /><br />I do so agree, however, about ensuring the provenance of one's eggs. One cannot be too careful about this matter. Mine live in a ceramic chicken since I have so far not found any cardboard packages nearly so glamorous as yours. And, my Quail eggs go into a smaller ceramic chicken. Do Quail eggs reach the table at Darlington House? I think that they look so pretty atop some dressed leaves.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-17704275960628868982010-10-12T13:27:45.361-04:002010-10-12T13:27:45.361-04:00It may not just happen, but you certainly make it ...It may not just happen, but you certainly make it look effortless, despite the planning and research you obviously put into your very entertaining posts.<br />Best -<br />- MikeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8044541580633294348.post-9291230451304730012010-10-12T12:07:50.175-04:002010-10-12T12:07:50.175-04:00"You think this stuff just happens?"
