I have always loved the idea of having farm fresh eggs, but they are
expensive to buy. As I was driving out in the country, on my way to my
in-laws yesterday I saw a sign for someone selling them for only $1.50 a
dozen! Now that is a deal for fresh eggs! I asked my in-laws if
they knew someone that sells eggs and sure enough their neighbor does!
I got an even better deal...a dozen, straight from the chicken coup for
FREE!
I will go there again! If I make it a regular item in my
fridge, I will pay for them. =)
I was pleasantly
surprised to see how pretty the eggs were! How appropriate, because it was
Easter weekend! Too bad we already colored our eggs for Sunday. I also
found it fitting as I reflect on Easter and the meaning of this special
feast day.
Eggs are a symbol of new life. Jesus came to bring us new
life, as He rose from the dead, opened the gates of Heaven and prepared a
place for us. We don't have Easter eggs just because they are pretty,
they remind us of the new life in Christ we have because of His
sacrifice for us. Thank you Jesus for this new life, and help me to not
take it for granted.
And thank you for these beautiful farm fresh eggs. They made great fried eggs for breakfast!
