Four a Day and I'm Already Up to My Eyeballs

Picture My hens began laying eggs a couple of weeks ago. For the first few days, there were only two eggs a day. Then suddenly there were three. Over the past ten days, the number has gone up to four eggs a day.

Despite the relatively low level of production to date, my refrigerator is already overflowing with eggs, and I find myself wondering what I'll do when all twelve ladies click into gear and ramp up production. When that happens, I'll have ten-to-twelve eggs a day, every day -- at least until the dead of winter when production apparently drops off rather precipitously. 

As far as I can see, I have only two options -- either I go into business, or I start gathering a volume of creative egg recipes. Since most people in my village have their own hens, I reckon egg recipes will be the way to go!
