The joy of fresh farm eggs

My friend Erin gifted me a dozen eggs from her hens. The colours are amazing, from bronze to khaki to blue. My camera doesn't do them justice. Such variety in the world! Does the colour change the taste? No, but it gives me joy.

It's the same feeling when I grow my own dry cooking beans. So many varieties to choose from, hundreds if not thousands, but if you go to a grocery store, there are maybe 4 or 5 kinds on offer.
