A day of thanks.

I went to my dear friend Kellie's house for Thanksgiving. I am thankful that I have such a good friend. It has made my move to Wisconsin so much easier around the holidays.

Beside bringing 2 dishes I also brought deviled eggs. I have noticed that I have been seeing a lot of double yoke eggs. This dozen eggs that I got the other day, 2 of them were double yoked. In all my years of using eggs in Anchorage I never saw a single one. In the year and a half that I have lived in Wisconsin I have seen maybe 10? ( I gave the cats the other double egg white. The yoke was to close to the edge and the white broke.)

That seems to be high odds. Maybe I should go buy a Power ball ticket? I jokes! I have yet to buy one. I just can't part with the dollar without getting something tangible back. ( I think it's my cheep nature)

  2. That's nice that you can go over to Kellie's house for Thanksgiving dinner. Didn't you make the green bean casserole too?

  3. Where are you getting your eggs? When our chickens were laying like crazy a few years ago we routinely had double yolks, but I've never gotten any from the store..

  4. Glad you had a nice holiday! I've never had a double yoker from eggs bought at the store too....so I'm also curious whether you got them from the store or from a farm?

  5. So to all Krissy's bloggers who may be farmer types, if the double-egged yolk were allowed to mature, would two baby chicks actually hatch from the same egg? Or are the babies too small, weak, etc? Krissy - we had fun but I did miss you!

  6. I have a friend that did incubate a double yolker and it did develop into 2 chicks, but they were too weak to live.
