Guest Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Don't you feel like this somtimes? Made a delicious quiche last night (parmesan instead of the usual cheddar in it really is nice) but my enthusiam for all things eggs is starting to wane a bit. I just can't get through them all, try as I might. How does everybody else use them up?!! There are only two of us and our girths are expanding. I am taking another 6 round to my mother tomorrow...

The Dogmother Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Wish we were that inundated! Only one laying at the moment. But we plan to distribute spare eggs (when we have them) to the other young families in the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Louise Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I have that problem too Belinda, There is only me and I get at least 12 eggs a week from them. Everywhere I go they get a gift of eggs. One of my neighbours was walking past with his dogs one night when I was removing eggs and he went home with them The girls have just filled the order of 12 for my dad who is coming to stay this weekend so with 12 going North and the number he will eat this weekend I may be cleaned out completely by Monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Cluck Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 hi we only have 2 of our 3 laying at the moment but our plan is to sell the excess 4 at a time for 50p towards their food. Our friends give us their Omlet boxes back with their names on when they want more. Lyn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 So I shouldn't feel guilty that I am not madly baking cakes and making merangues? Phew. (I did make some lovely chocolate ice cream last week with a pint of milk half a pint of double cream, three eggs and a slab of Green and Blacks bittersweet plain chocolate....)

Louise Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Nah - don't feel guilty Belinda. i got the chickens because I wanted them the eggs are a bonus. I just don't ever want to waste them so i give them away. If I ever get any more chooks I would try selling them to my neigbours but its not worth the effort with only 2 chickens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 We sell ours. Problem is lsat week we sold all of ours and I ended up buying some from the supermarket (another good reason to get more chooks) - although we will probably sell them too............... RECIPE PLEASE for chocie ice cream - I have just ordered my shop from Waitrose (only because i had a £15 off voucher to make it more economical) and have just orderd Green and Blacks Vanilla ice cream. Apparently you are meant to leave it out of the freezer 10 minutes before eating. Yeah. Right. It will last 10 minutes when I get it out the freezer............

rachel19 Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I know I'll probably be thrown off of the forum for this but am i the only one who hates Green & Blacks?

Louise Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Never tried it Rachel I only ever bought it once - as a present for Lesley I don't like chocolate very much full stop so you will not be an outcast alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 Rachel that is an outrage I will have to contact the other moderators to see if you will be allowed to post on the forum again......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 An emergency meeting should be held ASAP. This is a very serious matter that will need to be dealt with swiftly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
motherhen Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I'm going to put my vote in for being a liberal in inclusive forum - even to the extreme of welcoming women who don't like G&B chocolate. All of you so afflicted are very welcome to send unwanted pressies of said choccy my way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted October 14, 2005 Share Posted October 14, 2005 I clicked on this topic thinking someone was in crisis about an eggbound chicken, only to find a 2 page choc discussion. When will you all ever learn.......... ....that its OK to like G & B and Cadbury, its not either / or for me! Or was choc. an eggbound solution? (PS, a joke...choc. bad for chooks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel19 Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 - Well that's told me then hasn't it!!!! Would this also be a bad time to bring up the fact that i don't really like any form of alcohol either?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popcorn Posted October 16, 2005 Share Posted October 16, 2005 It could be fair to say Rachel, that ones goes quite nicely with the other, so you'd be forgiven for not liking either without having tried them at the same time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
