My one dozen per week egg customer asked for 3 dozen. YES! Also have a dozen for eggnog for a Christmas party, a dozen for breakfast casserole fo DS10 next week while school is out.

That gets me down to 2 dozen in the fridge. I can manage that. Except they're laying 11-13 per day. Uff dah. I need to find another egg customer.

I've been making homemade pudding with goat milk and eggs for mom and dad's sweet tooth. It's a good way to use up both!

Make deviled eggs.

When you make the pound cake, use the yolks and make crème brulee. It is awesome, I bought a small torch to melt the sugar topping.

I don't think there are any homeless shelters where I am. But you can also search for Domestic Violence shelters, anyplace that feeds hungry people.
I say, farm laid eggs are best enjoyed FRESH.

I make lemon curd and can it when I'm getting too many silkie eggs. It's a quick way to go through them since they are little and it takes so many.

Currently I'm saving every egg I can since we are probably going to see Mom and Dad in a couple weeks. I'll take them all my eggs. Mom can't eat the store eggs without getting sick.

I almost never have leftover eggs. They give me 700 eggs a week and I always sell around 60 dozen a week. I also have serama, ducks and pheasants. If I don't have enough regular ones I have to give my hubby serama eggs or others, in his morning sandwich for work.

Puff Pancakes
melt 3 tb butter in two cake pans (or as I use medium size skillets)
then mix......
4 eggs
2/3 cup milk
2/3 cup flour
1 tsp of vanilla
split the batter between the two pans/tins and stick in the oven at 375*
I bake for 20 minutes for myself (they will collapse a little after you take them out at that time). If you like things crispier on the edge or would like them to hold their 'puff' for better presentation then bake them a bit longer. If I bake longer I turn the oven down to 325* for the last half. with some whipped cream and fresh fruit they make an outstanding and easy fancy breakfast.

Eggnog is a family tradition. My Great Grandmother made it for Christmas breakfast. Everyone drank it, even little kids. My Mother remembered drinking eggnog at breakfast on Christmas morning. My non drinking parents always drank eggnog made by my Grandmother and let me have some too. Before my Grandmother died and took the recipe with her, we watched her make it and wrote it down. I hope ya'll love it as much as my family does.

Mamma Wall's Eggnog
12 eggs, separated
12 heaping tablespoons of sugar
12 shots of bourbon (I use 6)
1 half pint whipping cream
1 cup milk
Beat egg whites until stiff.
Beat whipping cream until stiff.
Beat egg yolks, add sugar 1 tablespoon at a time.
Continue beating egg yolks, slowly add bourbon 1 shot at a time. Beat egg yolk mixture thoroughly while
adding bourbon. The bourbon cooks the egg yolks-if you just dump the bourbon in you will get curdled eggs.
With a large spoon or spatula, fold the whipped cream into the egg yolk mixture. Then fold in the egg
whites. Stir in the milk.
Serve in cups with nutmeg or cinnamon sprinkled on top.

I'm failing at eating eggs! My standbys are french toast casserole (12 eggs), eggnog (used 30 eggs in eggnog in the last week), lemon curd (12 yolks) and egg white soufflé (12 whites), and deviled eggs (12)

I've been making those and am down to 7... dozen.

I don't want to cull hens. I sell 1 dozen per week, and if we cull I won't have enough eggs to try to get new egg customers next year. But if we have excess eggs, DH will cull without consulting me.

We're having egg salad sandwiches for lunch this week. I think I can use a dozen there.

help. Please. Drowning in eggs.

Perfect time of year to donate to the local homeless shelters or food banks, if they will take them. I used to donate my extra eggs to a local food bank and they were eager to get them. Try asking at your local senior center as well....those folks will often take excess veggies, fruit and eggs off your hands.
