oh yes, we have no bananas
but we do have another green egg
some of the shredded paper I used for their nest box, apparently still had some sticky stuff on it
couple of paper shreds were clinging to the egg
when I pulled them off ... off came some of the brown-coating of that egg, and the pale blue shone through, like blue sky after a storm

wish these patches of blue sky would stick around, but it is blowing like crazy (30 mph or so, the trunks of the big oaks are swaying). so the blue scuds along as if herded by white-cloud shepherd-dogs
smart chickens, they're all hunkered down on the roost in the small coop --41 inches seems to be just right for 6 pullets and a cockerel

oh drat, I just realized -- with DS living elsewhere ... either I learn how to manage the riding mower (big hydraulic commercial machine), I buy a conventional lawn mower (which I know how to operate), or we hire someone to come in and butcher our weedy grass -- almost an acre and a half of it
