eggs in abundance

over winter there has been pretty 

stodgy baking because of the lack of eggs

too many buttery biscuits

and rubbery muffins

where I used olive oil instead of eggs

I refuse to buy eggs at the shops

prefering to get local free range if they are about

but even those have been thin on the ground

now with the hen house back into full production

the abundance of eggs is being put to good use

in coconut macaroons

and mayonnaise
