Eggs-pect the Best – brunch with Eggland’s Best! #EBbrunch

You may have noticed that I like eggs, after all — we do have a backyard full of chickens! Yes, we do still buy eggs on occasion! Whether our girls are on a molting strike, or I just need a few extra eggs in the fridge, I want the store eggs that I do buy […]

Spring Brunch Strata with ham, potatoes and cheese #EBbrunch

Recently, I threw a fun egg themed brunch where I focused on creating recipes that use nutritious Eggland’s Best eggs. I thought I would share just one of the dishes that I served to my guests. I decided to make a cross between a strata and a frittata — this is what I came up […]

5-minute Fresh Egg White & Herb Breakfast Wrap – Spring #recipe

One of my very favorite things about living in the country, is being able to walk a few steps out my back door, and find breakfast waiting for me. Out in the coop, I gently slip my hand underneath Penny and find three warm eggs — the girls have already been taking turns on the […]

Mutant Chicken Strikes Again

So THAT”S what all the fuss was about earlier. I completely understand dearies :)   This one is large & wrinkly!   Pardon my daughter’s bright red nail polish, she’s celebrating no school!
