Naturally Nested


"Naturally Nested Chicken Eggs"


Up close and personal!

My family doesn't eat many eggs.

Generally speaking, one dozen eggs is sufficient to meet our weekly egg needs.

I suppose that's why I was more than a little surprised when I went to scramble two eggs for myself and I only found four little cackleberries nestled in an egg carton that I had just purchased the day before. I couldn't help but wonder where the other eight eggs had gone. It all just seemed so odd.

A few days later, I went out to the garden to pull an onion for dinner and what do you suppose I found?

Yup, you guessed it! I found my eight missing eggs evenly divided into four little nests!

I'm not sure which of my progeny decided to "naturally nest" our chicken eggs, but I do know this.

Those eggs smell to high heaven!
