There isn't exactly a big market for organic or fresh eggs here. Too many people have chickens or will go with the cheaper eggs from the store. If I sell any eggs, I sell them online as hatching eggs.becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424703824657047654.post-90232214208544444382011-05-26T17:33:42.621-04:002011-05-26T17:33:42.621-04:00feeding organic eggs to the dog? you are RICH! ;) ...feeding organic eggs to the dog? you are RICH! ;) sorry to hear about the sneezing and HIGH temps. we're getting a lot of rain here in KY but even tho' it's been up to ninety, the cloud cover and new insulation are keeping the house relatively cool. haven't even turned on the air conditioner yet.

One baby did die in the shell and I probably should have helped that one out. Sometimes the helped ones do not do as well but to me it is better to try than not to.becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424703824657047654.post-15659567228895791522011-05-26T13:02:49.694-04:002011-05-26T13:02:49.694-04:00I never use my food processor unless I absolutely ...I never use my food processor unless I absolutely have to and even then I try to find another way to do it. I hate all the noise it makes. <br />The thing about A&M's is that most people think they have A&M's and end up only having English whites or a mix of the two. True A&M's are supposed to be quite a bit larger, with whiter meat and they are quite hard to find.becky3086https://www.blogger.com/profile/01026872543168452124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2424703824657047654.post-7960924811406615322011-05-26T10:09:44.557-04:002011-05-26T10:09:44.557-04:00When I make pasta dough, I beat the duck egg first...When I make pasta dough, I beat the duck egg first. If I need more liquid, I add a little water the bowl I beat the egg. It grabs some of the leftover eggy bits! <br />I usually make the dough in my food processor.<br /><br />I picked up those 6 A&M's last night. The guy we bought them from had a great setup!
