This could've been a Thursday Throwback ... or I could've waited until Friday Flashback time. But truth is I didn't know what to post to my blog today, so went searching through those oldies-and-goldies files and wow, up popped this rather timely one!
I'm not sure I even remember what these things are ... it's been awhile since I've seen them, you know. Once upon a time they'd be here often, mine Mommy might scramble 'em, or boil or fry them and lots of the time they'd go into salads she'd like to eat. I wonder if she misses them. I think I do, a little bit, the bright and sunny yellow part she'd give me a tiny taste of and it was really good, just a tiny taste.
And I even remember seeing them in a storybook about the Easter bunny, where they were all painted in pretty colors and little kids would hunt for them. Easter is just 6-weeks away, don't think the bunny will be hiding too many this year. Even those plastic ones (from China) who wants to have those! No China stuff please, and anyway, we don't need more throwaway plastic. Oh, I know: Cadbury Chocolate ones. Purrfect!
Lots of peoples keep talking about these and complaining, but honestly, looking at the Big Picture right now, even though yes, I'd enjoy a "tiny taste of sunny yellow" again ~ much, much worse stuff is happening. Oh yeah, meow, much worse.
All of normal, everyday life is being scrambled up.
cadbury? we are in ;o)
ReplyDeleteYes, the world is very scrambled at the moment. Thankfully eggs haven't increased in price here, but they are one of the very few things that haven't.
ReplyDeleteSeeing the hardboiled eggs makes mom think of Molly. She got one on her meals every single day. Not sure how doable that would be now. Eggs are so yummy. We hope the prices go down in the near future, Juney, and as for Easter - Cadbury eggs are yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou are trying to get us in the Easter mood aren't you June. I eat eggs I bake with eggs I make all kinds of things with eggs so I keep buying eggs. I'm lucky that I can afford to and I'm grateful they're still on the Shelf.
ReplyDeleteThe egg crisis is a crazy thing right now!
ReplyDeleteJune, you are hilarious!
ReplyDeleteglad the archive dive turned up you and your eggs, June... eggs are still a lot cheaper than meat. or detergent and toilet paper.. gas for the car and milk are the same for a gallon,
ReplyDeleteCadbury Chocolate sounds good, June! Everything now is scrambled indeed ...
ReplyDeleteoh dee mum luvz eggz!!! she does not eat much meat but luvz her eggz on dee weekend, in salads, scrambled wif truffle oyl, eggie salad! i luv me a lick ov dee soft boiled eggz or poched eggz!!!
ReplyDeleteToo true. Eggs have become the new toilet paper during trying times. Sigh.
ReplyDeleteOur parents use eggs in lots of things too, but our mom is crazy for those Cadbury ones. The price of a dozen of those is just a little more expensive as a dozen of chicken eggs. BOL!
ReplyDeleteWe're sad that so many chickens have been slaughtered, leading to this mess.
ReplyDeleteEggs are about $8 a dozen around here so I don't use many any more. XO
ReplyDeleteAwww, that is such the sweetest look on your face beautiful June!
ReplyDeleteLove your flashback. Lucy and Chia get a raw egg every morning with their breakfast. (Xena's allergic.)
ReplyDeleteThe Easter buinny better be careful he doesn't get mugged
ReplyDeleteWhen I worked in a deli that sold a lot of european products....eons and eons ago...they had eggs that were filled with cognac. Now those were good!!
ReplyDeleteI have heard that some people who have a yard, are renting chickens, so they can have fresh eggs! Not kidding!
We get egg sometimes. An yeah, the yellow part is best. An sometimes TBT makes flat kinds with cheese added, Those are "inneresting". We keep tellin him ta add some kibbles or treats, but he doesn't go fer that much. So we just get some on the side.
ReplyDeleteThis is not a problem in our house, I mostly eat vegan and my Sweetie got pelted with a rotten egg as a child and has loathed eggs ever since. I do feel for those who really enjoy them, and I'm sad for the bird populations.
ReplyDeleteLulu: "Well now our Dada says he wants an egg salad sandwich for lunch!"
