Got Eggs?

Our chickens provide us with an abundance of eggs.  But since my family was gone for 11 days and Grandpa has been up at his log cabin in the mountains for the past 3 1/2 weeks, we currently have an unusually large abundance of eggs.

Yesterday I was able to use 50 eggs in various recipes and still have 13 dozen left.  I cooked up 15 homemade egg mcmuffins, a bacon, bell pepper, onion & cheese egg casserole, a pain egg and cheese casserole, fried eggs for breakfast, omelets for dinner, chicken pot pie for supper (used 1 egg in pie dough), and a German chocolate cake.  The egg mcmuffins, and individual servings of egg casseroles have been placed in the freezer for Mr.B's "to go" breakfasts.

Today and tomorrow I plan to use another 3 or more dozen by making deviled eggs for our church WM's meeting, and a Karbach Haus bread pudding, a family favorite that also freezes well.  Breads, rolls and cookie recipes that call for eggs are also on the list and should use up a few more.

EJ and I are also going to figure out a way to mount our "Yard Eggs" sale sign out near the mailbox.  Maybe, just maybe, we'll be able to sell some.
