I plan to use my poor sweet husband as a guinea pig. Periodically I'll fix eggs using these but not tell him. He has a pretty sharp sense of taste and smell, so he'll know when they've reached their storage limits!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-13764419288871158742016-12-16T21:48:24.357-05:002016-12-16T21:48:24.357-05:00maybe that's why they were chopped up so small...maybe that's why they were chopped up so small, to keep you from noticing. ???Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-34371385989361227052016-12-16T09:19:15.410-05:002016-12-16T09:19:15.410-05:00Leigh,

Hard-boiled, chopped, frozen in bags. Probably with a few chemicals because that's how they do everything in the industry... we would put the eggs out still frozen because they would thaw quickly.Renee Nefehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08167893445846427824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-37637277402840062332016-12-15T10:15:20.579-05:002016-12-15T10:15:20.579-05:00sounds like the Thanksgiving story...

Here's an illustration showing why I love ...Ha! Here's an illustration showing why I love explanations and understanding how and why a thing works.<br /><br />A mother was teaching her daughter how to cook. "Today's lesson," said the mom, "is how to cook a roast. First we cut off both ends of the roast and put it in the pan."<br /><br />"Why do you cut the ends off?" asked daughter.<br /><br />That stopped mother in her tracks. She thought about it and then said, "I don't know. That's the way my mother did it, and her roasts were always wonderful."<br /><br />The next time they visited grandmother they asked, "Grandma, why do you cut the ends off your roast before you bake it? Is that why it's always so tender and tasty?"<br /><br />Grandmother replied, "No, that's the only way I can make it fit in my little roasting pan."<br /><br />While I don't think science can solve as many of the world's problems as folks think it can, it's an invaluable and guide when paired with tradition. ;)Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-90560200705828619262016-12-15T09:06:51.008-05:002016-12-15T09:06:51.008-05:00Me too!Me too!Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-50455420245580218692016-12-15T09:06:42.086-05:002016-12-15T09:06:42.086-05:00Thank you!

Their cooking videos are informative and wonderfully done.<br />https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yUYgguMz1qI<br />He submerges the eggs in the lime in the shell.<br />I hope this adds to the discussion!<br />PS-- Goat barn looks fabulous!Meaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05523870360235902272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1694364001063554832.post-24414736776442052072016-12-15T05:19:53.322-05:002016-12-15T05:19:53.322-05:00Thanks Mike!
