Hen, eggs and jellies...


Hi girls, hope you've all had a nice weekend,  well  the question is "what come first, the chicken or the egg?"  in my case it was the egg or eggs!!



   A dozen big brown eggs freshly laid by my friend Shirly's hens.




So the last few days we've enjoyed boiled eggs and soldiers, a scrummy mushroon omelette and the biggest yorkshire puds you ever did see!!


Then, guess what come along, the chicken from the lovely Henny Flo from Fat Hen and Flo




I couldn't believe it when I saw that I'd won  a lovely rosy hen thank you so much Henny Flo I love it, she's now called Henny Penny and she sat  for a little while, on my big brown eggs. Sadly shes now sat on an empty nest as the eggs have all gone, but I shall buy her some more tomorrow.



Shirly also brought me some lovely desert glasses, the stems are twisted glass and they have fluted tops, they don't make them like that anymore. So I had to make some jellies for tea, raspberry,

 

lime and....



orange which we had with a scoop of vanilla ice cream and a flake!! 

I'm off for a shower now then put my clean PJs on before I watch "Dancing on ice"...thanks again to Henny Flo for my lovely hen, and thanks to Shirly for the very tasty eggs.

Night all, enjoy your evening,

Love Lucey xx
