I went to a small local market within a few minutes of the house. I wanted to check if they had eggs & if so, the prices.
They had local, brown eggs for $6 & ‘rainbow’ eggs from their own chickens for $7. I had been paying $5 for local eggs in various places, including a farm near our old house. I don’t mind the $6 price; however, I will be happy when I can arrange for my own chickens. My niece has offered to hatch some for me.
The eggs I bought had a label: “Butt Nuggets” .... I had to laugh.
Cute!
I pay our egg lady $6 for a dozen (delivered). She was only asking $4.50. My neighbor and I both thought we should offer her more. She lives about 30 minutes away. We hope $6 is a reasonable price. I will go higher if she wants. The grocery store asks that much for eggs that aren’t anywhere as close to as fresh as these are.
She and her husband have a farm and also three young children. I’d like to see them succeed.

I have been looking on Amazon. Vendors there have a ton of cute ‘stamps’ that you can put on your eggs. Gonna do that to amuse Mom & Sis in the future.
When we sent ‘Weber’ to ‘The Spa’ I printed labels that said, ‘All Gave Some, Some Gave All - Weber’ and put those on the cuts of meat I shared with family that Christmas. ;)
Yeah, we all have that, ‘same sense of humor.’ ;)
