I'm finding it hard to post and then read blogs because of trying to get things done in our home. We're doing lots of downsizing and man does that take time. Sure wish we lived closer cause we would be happy to buy eggs from you and Jack. Glad things are going so well for you.Beatrice P.

I even have my own brand new computer. I think I've been sore a lot am walking a lot trying to get ready to find a job. <br /><br />Always love to hear from you. <br /><br />I almost never drink out of anything but my cup. Weird, water tastes better out of it. Happy Thanksgiving and Christmas or holidays if you prefer.grinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03916101406698502578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-16102504418244416212011-11-28T07:28:35.686-06:002011-11-28T07:28:35.686-06:00Hey Jim! thank you sir!!

I have to admit that it still fascinates me to no end to go out and just pick up all those eggs out of the boxes! It is like magic! lol! We do have a pretty good farmer's market here that runs most of the year but has closed down for now. I'm gonna have to find somewhere to sell these eggs though! $3.00 is a bargain for fresh, clean eggs too. I have seen organic eggs sell for $4-4.50 a dozen in the grocery stores.<br /><br />Hey Jen! you are most welcome! thanks for reading!MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-62843105638229460032011-11-27T19:30:00.485-06:002011-11-27T19:30:00.485-06:00I enjoy reading your blog..no matter what you talk...I enjoy reading your blog..no matter what you talk about.

It took twenty weeks before they began to lay. What a moment it was when my 12 year old son brought in the first egg. We went around town and showed it to everyone we knew. It was like a miracle. It did not take long for the hens began laying in earnest. I had no idea how many eggs 100 hens can lay. Eggs, everywhere. I had a fridge full in no time. We sold what we could at the house but we needed a more deliberate plan so we formed a small company for my son. He developed an egg route. Thank God for a few places that took 15 dozen at a time. At times I was eating two dozen a day myself. When I had an overflow we bundled them up and sold them at the weekly farm auction. (Do you have such a thing in your area. It is a wonderful place to meet other hobby farmers). How time has moved on I was happy to get $1.00 a dozen and you can now get $3.00 a dozen.Tossing Pebbles in the Streamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04354065895900279070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-54434715658675805262011-11-27T11:46:37.467-06:002011-11-27T11:46:37.467-06:00I sure like coming over here!

Don't sell yourself short and think it's not good enough to go in a gallery setting either. Lots of people do that. I have sold some stuff online but find it much easier and more successful to sell directly to people. When it comes to crafts, generally, I think people still prefer to be able to hold the object in their hands before purchasing.<br />I think you put words together just fine too! ;)<br /><br />Hey Aunty! Good to hear from you! hope you had a great Thanksgiving also. Yes, anytime you are in Birmingham you call me for some eggs! Be happy to get you some and I will definitely let ya'll know how I like the stove!!MamaHenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17018971960706063902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22455933.post-89632353481804869762011-11-26T19:27:39.466-06:002011-11-26T19:27:39.466-06:00Hey EdiRex!!

Visited a consignment shop today. One that will sell your craft for you. We were hoping to find a nice place to sell what we make but may find it best to sell on line. This place was just shabby and very very cold as in no heat. We make quality products and want to sell them. So I guess when the time is right we'll see about Etsy or a blog although as you can tell I do not put words together all that well. Good to read your blog again. I hope you sell all of the pots you make and they ask for more. Yea!Ritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07287238810628574373noreply@blogger.com
