So I am a little behind this week and I have to say a little uninspired. I don't know whose idea it was to have bathrooms as a theme but whoever it was should be fired!! Anyways back to my bathroom...
You are probably wondering what eggs have to do with my bathroom... Well I will tell you:) Last year my husband decided to go into the chicken business (kind of anyway). We have had laying chickens off and on for several years and when Lan was old enough he became the egg gatherer/washer. Last year when we started raising meat chickens as well and it became Lan's job to feed/water/care for the meat chickens and Ryley inherited the job of gathering and washing the eggs. Well Ryley isn't quite tall enough to easily wash the eggs at the kitchen sink so he uses the sink in the back bathroom. And because it is an everyday job it seems that I ALWAYS have eggs in my back bathroom. Its almost like they are part of the decor:) You might also be wondering what that green egg is doing amongst all the pretty white and brown eggs... Shortly after we bought our last batch of laying hens the boys noticed that one of them had green feet. So we were curious what kind of eggs this green footed chicken would lay and surprise surprise she lays green eggs! At first I thought they looked gross like a rotten egg or something but it is growing on me:)

I love how the focus is on the green egg. I'm sure you did it on purpose using those settings... I'm dying to figure out that foreign language.
On a completely unrelated subject, we're getting chickens this spring and I CAN'T WAIT. I had them growing up so yes I know it will be work but I'm also dreaming of learning to make omelets and quiches and eggs every morning for breakfast. Lucky!
If Amy is your teacher you will learn the "foreign language" quickly:) And yes I used those settings on purpose:)
I love having the chickens and fresh eggs! Even if I feel like I have eggs coming out of my ears half the time!!! I think we have a few too many:) I especially like that it gives my boys a job to do and I don't have to do it :)
I want some green eggs and ham! :)
