A "Variety" of Eggs

BOFFO EGG BOX!!! 
Hen Honcho Hoots: "Super Spring!" 

Galien, Michigan. It was announced today from Busy Solitude Farm, home of the Beautiful Egg, that spring has arrived a week early. The hen team worked overtime to produce three dozen eggs in the past week -- "simply unprecedented production" was how Proprietor Johanna "The Egg Lady" described it. 

Easter Bunnies hoping to fill their baskets with beautiful pastel blue, green, and brown eggs should place their orders now, or risk resorting to bland, old grocery store eggs and vinegar dye.

Silly girl!

One night this past week I awoke with a start, feeling clearly that something was wrong.  I heard something.  A breathing sound.  To my left.

That can't be, I thought.  There's only a small space between the bed and the wall to my left.  Anything breathing would be on the bed, or on the right side where the floor is covered with a comfy rug, and the door out of the bedroom is always open.

But it could not be ignored.  Something was breathing to my left.  So I turned on the light.

There stood Ulani in the small space between the bed and the wall.  And when the light came on, she shook her head as if awakening, paused a moment to get her bearings, then backed up, turned around, and quickly walked to the other side of the bed before jumping up and laying her head on the pillow.

Silly sleepwalking girl!
