Fresh Farm Eggs, Did You Know?

Please make sure to always wash your hands after touching fresh farm eggs. Wash the shell before cracking.

Unwashed farm eggs retain a natural protective coating called the "bloom" or cuticle, which seals pores to block bacteria and maintain freshness. They can be stored at room temperature for 2–3 weeks or in the refrigerator for up to 3–6 months. Washing removes this layer, requiring immediate refrigeration.

Words: What are they good for anyway?

“Single” doesn’t mean a heart is available and free. Married doesn’t mean a heart is not available and trapped.” -Stacey Cook (Added one of my scarlet macaw Costa Rica pictures for fun. He had no mate in sight, "Single" and hanging out with me. The safety guy says, "They are not that friendly. Plus, I don't see his mate.". Therefore, the conclusion, he must have been bitten by a snake and was dying. Maybe the last hours of his life, all because he was "Single".) Why in the h-e-double hockey sticks would I say, “Words, what are they good for anyway”? I will explain. Words are just that, words. What gives them meaning are the attachments such as beliefs, culture, emotions, experiences, commitment, behavior, and character to name a few. For example, “Single” might mean “I am not married,” simple as that. For others, it might mean, “I am available to have fun”. I will let you guess what kind of fun I mean. Words are used to he...

What the Hell!

What the Hell (WTH) is a common phrase used in “frustration”. We all have WTH moments. This short blog is about a transition from WTH to WTF to Now What to You Got This . It was a typical Sunday morning at the tail end of January. I got up around 4 am, finished a few updates to a training course, then my oldest son and I headed out the door for our tennis lesson. We left a bit early because of ice on the road. On the way, I felt the compelling urge to explain how to drive on ice. This interrupted his earbud music playing on the passenger side, that is never good. Our conversation turned into a debate, “Mom, I know physics.”. We arrived at the court and started our warm up. I was on the add side and Jake was on the deuce side. We were sharing the indoor court for our lessons. I remembered feeling pretty good about my timing and how easily the ball was going over. Then I went for one of my favorite s...

My Macaronian...

As I listened to a TedTalk podcast on my way to work, I get frustrated, “Children need a healthy diet. Starting their day with a healthy breakfast increases their concentration and allows them to learn.........." As I listen, I think..."You must not know what it is like to live with a Macaronian!" Diet stories when others were younger go a lot like the stories I used to hear from my grandparents about walking to school. "We used to walk up a hill both ways with snow up to our knee caps." Remember those stories? Now with diet, it goes like this; "We didn't have a choice, what was on the table is what we ate." or "Healthy eating habits start by them seeing what their parents are doing." Here is the doctor's advice when my Macaronian was younger; "He will eat when he is hungry. Make sure he is taking his multivitamin." My Macaronian was super skinny when he was between the ages of 5-10. ...
