    Pip: I have no idea whether the color of eggs impacts nutrient content. The food the chicken eats sure does. I like free range araucona chicken eggs best, but I’m seldom able to get them. I had an egg lady for a few years who sold us free range araucona eggs. The eggshells were a mix of different colors and were blue, green, pink, or tan. These birds were not kept in a huge open room with lights 24/7. The went outdoors and scratched up bugs and plants to eat. I miss their quality and the novelty of the pretty colors. :star:

    Barbara: Your deck looks wonderful! :bigsmile:

    Hi all, still wresting with my laptop and OneDrive. I found the unsync from this computer once, but chickened out of clicking the button. Now can't remember where it was. I really want to just unsync photos. Grrrrrrrrrr!
    Makes me very tired and cranky.

    Still exhausted from yesterday. I've got to wash my hair for the dancing, then might nap before putting face on and cooking early dinner. Not feeling it.

    Love Heather UK xxxxxxx

    Annie-Congrats on Daughter Graduation 👩‍🎓!!!

    Barbara-I try to be cruelty free -Free range their happier (unless at night they went in but had a large section open at top so they could climb a tree or leave as they pleased...the 1 who refused to go in could go in lol) the eggs are healthier because they can eat snakes 🐍 to lizards,bugs ,(lots of protein compared to caged bird) ,grass to seeds,food you feed y left overs ,y much more even greasy rain water to better nail care naturally. Caged ones eat their own eggs due to protein deficiency.Their nails have to be cut by man.My free range only 1 needed his spurs cut but he was more into mating than moving around lol.

    Drinking crystal light peach tea 5calories. Yummy nice change. Hubby got correct chicken yesterday!!! Woohoo so chick chick chicken tonight. JR vegetarian meal since he still has meat aversion (gags) like his sister think she was 4 when she finally started eating raw to boiled crab to fish (pescatarian). So gonna keep giving vitamins healthy meals just wait it out.

    Miss all the farm fresh food EXCEPT for 1 thing and that was chicken. Don’t ask me why but when I discovered satire chicken, I was in heaven . We made our own butter and cheese, that was cool.

    hi I missed a couple of days or so and 10 pages of messages! I skimmed but I'm just going to jump in and hope to understand the major things I missed little by little.

    Hi Annie from Delaware. Welcome.

    @Kevrit Rita wow for aimignfor under 20 carbs. I find limiting carbs soooo hard.

    @JRsLateInLifeMom free range sounds right. I was wondering about diet drinks. you barely see them here anymore.

    @lindabortner sounds like a good goal

    @barbiecat nice to hear it has worked for you.

    @pipcd34 what is "satire chicken"?

    @grandmallie mandatory unplanned phone detox ?

    Banana and oranges- Dentist told my mom the reason she had no teeth enamel anymore was because she drank Diet Coke in large quantities daily! It’s bad for your teeth so many avoid them. Not sure about the zero cokes to other types tho.

    JR has realized everyone in the family has glasses! Ugghh now he wants them! Trying to explain to a 2yr old it’s better he doesn’t need them or want them is impossible. So every 5sec today I hear 👂...” I wanna glassesss 👓.” He had fake ones but he destroyed them pretty fast 💨.He’s not gentle but Daughter wasn’t either. Lol now she’s in the Navy but in Elementary teacher called me because the whole class of boys hanged up on her to prove they were stronger than the shortest girl 👧. Lol she used 1 hand knocked the whole group over like dominos the 1st boy falling took them all down.They never tried that again accepted that they just couldn’t beat her at sports 🥎 to academics lol 😂. She didn’t even notice them as she went through was more occupied on getting to the books they were in her way! Lol 😂. Teacher 👩‍🏫 couldn’t help but giggle said she found it funny since Daughter was so so tiny yet she stomped around with a deep voice y was Paul Bunyan of the school lol. Now I got a giant who’s rough but gentle hearted wouldn’t couldn’t hurt a fly.

    This evening is Day 2 of "Reinventing Rhonda" . . . Although I stayed under my caloric limit and did the other items on my list of goals, I succumbed to eating too much fat as I had done yesterday. But as Scarlet O'Hara said in Gone With the Wind, "Tomorrow's another day! As G is my witness, I will be thin again!" Okay, she didn't say that, but I like the proclamation anyway.

    I will be thin again!
    I will be thin again!
    I will be thin again!!!

    Thanks to those that offered me a warm welcome. It felt good.
    Barbie - Sending a hug to you for the loss of a {{hug}} and big thanks for keeping the group going!
    Amber Tx - Your post cracked me up - I call my grand-daughter "Little Booger" (she's biracial, too :-)
    Barbara - SOCoastie - We have a few things in common. Are you a Duck or a Beaver?[/b]
    Shelly - I'm new to the group also, and can attest that meditation makes me better in many ways.
    Rebecca <3 - Ah, sisters. I have two, too! Your brief post reminded me of how much love I feel for them. <3
    New Linda in TX - Wow!!! 107# gone!?! You are an inspiration. I have much to learn from you!
    Connie in KY - I hope you can find solace in knowing you're a good daughter and niece {{hugs}}
    Kim from NoCali - You have resilience and strength. You're model for younger generations and half-way to your goal. You deserve an applause {{{{ hands clapping }}}}

    I hope to become acquainted with everyone as the days, weeks and months fly by and the pounds drop off.

    Kind regards,
    Rhonda (south of PDX :-)

    I will be thin again!
    I will be thin again!!

    I learned that chicken do need to eat bugs or some kind of protein to be healthy. I notice the shells are thicker when I buy better quality eggs usually the cagefree or free range ones. The color does not make so much difference. It is how the chicken is treated.

    Loving reading all your stories! <3

    Wasn't feeling it tonight at the dancing. Wonder if I'm coming down with something. It was nice to see everyone again though.

    Early night for me tonight.

    Margaret: I agree with you that the color of a chicken egg is not an indicator of quality. The intensity of the color of the yolk and firmness of the raw white tell the story of their quality. I just happened to enjoy looking at the colored araucana eggs. It seemed like Easter Eggs. Nutritionally they were excellent. I think that comes from the opportunity to be outside and scratch in the dirt for bugs. The eggs we’re able to get now are not all that great. :ohwell:

    Lanette: I’m glad that you’ve been cleared to drive. Yay!!! :star:


    I am looking for fun birthday cards. My stash of the good ones is getting thin. There is a hardware store in a town about 20 miles from here that has had some fun and funny cards in the past. I’m planning to go there in the next few days to see if I can find more good ones.
