Like me, the dear sweet Bear boy is getting older.
“Seniors”, we are…
My good dog.

Not every Sunday, but as often as I feel like it, I have an extra indulgent breakfast.
And today is the day to see what lies inside the Jumbo XXXL egg.
In deference to SUPER EGG, I got potatoes going in the oven: soak cubed potato (gets rid of some starch so they crisp up in the oven), drizzle with lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper and roast at 450 for 20 minutes.
A dark chocolate mocha was in the works as well.
Some sliced linguisa and a thick slice of oatmeal-whole wheat bread round out the accompaniment for SUPER EGG!
Will it be a huge single, a double or maybe even a triple ???
Auggie was not worried. He says the “house” always wins…
A huge, orange single! ***
Good grief – my “money shot” was out of focus and I only took one photo, because breakfast was ready!
It was a good egg!
Fresh peach jam and a second slice of toast finished things off.
A wonderful Sunday breakfast.
Dishes done…
Bear and Auggie had their breakfasts and then we all spent time outside on this beautiful Sunday morning.
A mug of my special lemon-honey-turmeric-cayenne “tea” to enjoy in my kitchen chair before settling down to some work.
I’m in good shape for my Thursday deadline, but thought I’d get in excellent shape by working today and will reward myself with Friday off … a three day weekend, just for me!
*** When my neighbor’s chickens were first laying, there were lots of doubles. They were always long, skinny eggs. I recently read that doubles typically occur more when chickens first begin laying. I don’t know if that is correct, but although the super egg was huge, I was not surprised that it was a single. Mel’s chickens have a gorgeous run, are let out to free range daytime when someone is there to keep an eye on them and get good chicken food as well as scraps and bugs and their special treat: crickets! The yolks are orange and rich and I am completely spoiled!
