Today I put together two things that are
very simple but bring me much joy, and for
that I am grateful.
I looked around today and thought to myself how
much I enjoy the simple pleasures of having
Farm Fresh Eggs to bake with every day.
I have had the same best friend for over 35 years and she
is gracious enough to share with me
all these beautiful eggs.
I love how they look piled up inside my Grandmothers
bowl. She called it her popcorn bowl, because
she used to eat popcorn from it every night until
she handed it down to me.
They both look so pretty resting on the vintage
red and yellow pot holder.
It's funny sometime how the little things in
life bring a smile to your face.
Hope everyone has a wonderful day and
finds something to be grateful for!
How nice to have fresh eggs. Beautifully displayed.
ReplyDeleteVery pretty photos. I buy only local, free-range, organic brown eggs. There is nothing like them. I wish everyone would stop buying the supermarket eggs. They come from factories where the chickens are treated inhumanely. We need to stop now.
ReplyDeleteI love fresh eggs too Dawn, you lucky girl having a friend who has them year around. I get fresh eggs in the summer but not the winter. I couldn't agree more about having simple pleasures that fill each day, it makes the world go around. Enjoy the snow today!
ReplyDeleteI am like you Dawn and enjoy looking at the simple arrangements in my home. Never tire of your pretty pictures.
ReplyDeleteDawn, how touching. Brought tears to my old eyes. Love you.
ReplyDeleteI love the simple things in life too Dawn. Having farm fresh eggs is such a happy thing. I love your Grandmas popcorn bowl. But my goodness, mine is the largest Tupperware bowl in the house! You know, that giant one?

Nothing better than farm fresh eggs :)
ReplyDeleteFarm Fresh Eggs taste better, too! My grandpa always made us popcorn when we went to his house. Since he passed away, I have not had that delicious of popcorn, ever. He used real butter and an air popper. Popcorn reminds me of him as that bowl must have special memories for you.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures! I remember always having fresh eggs from chickens growing up...that and all the fresh vegetables! delicious!

I'd love to have farm fresh eggs but have to settle for what's at the grocery. When the Farmer's Market opens I can get them there...lovely photos as always.
ReplyDeleteYour farm fresh egg vignetts is daring!!! So happy and tells a story of cooking happily in the kitchen with these wonderful eggs on hand! I get my eggs from one of my friends too. They are the best!!!
ReplyDeleteYour post made me smile. The yellow pitcher
ReplyDeleteand the bowl of fresh eggs. How Spring!
I've been fighting my HOA for 4 years now
to have chickens but they will not budge!
Lovely Post

Dawn,

you are so lucky< we used to raise laying hens on the farm, had fresh eggs all the time, sadly their house was dismantled last fall and I have had to buy store bought. Hopfully this spring we will build a new hen house and I will be in business again
ReplyDelete"Simply" beautiful, Dawn. Your vignette brings a smile. I have a very similar pitcher in green -- love that sunflower color!
