A Good Egg

dbcurrie, you're definitely right about the cost. However, I would argue that since the farm eggs are so much larger and fluffier than their factory-farmed counterparts, the cost-per-egg volume (does that make sense?) is the same. Taste-wise, though, there is no contest.

My husband and I have a couple chickens and we keep their eggs in cartons donated by relatives. When we have more than a few eggs in there, we can't even close the lids. We actually did a tongue-in-cheek science experiment testing our chickens' eggs against organic store eggs and regular store eggs--our relatives had a load of eggs hanging around during Easter, and we were bored :P

I totally agree with you about using regular ol' eggs in meatloafs and things like that, though.

Sunday Night Soups: John Elway’s Hamburger Soup

Why not pierogies and kielbasa in a broth of Heinz ketchup? Oh fine, have your hamburger soup.
