EIGHT YOLKS, NO JOKE

Posted on November 7, 2019 by oneta hayes

 

I’m on with a wager – no money, but my pride is at stake.  I’m betting you have never before seen one skillet with four eggs, double yolkers, – eight yolks – at one time.

Breakfast time this summer.   I broke a double yolked egg.  Thought of calling Jadalyn to give a little lesson.  Decided not to bother.  Broke another egg.  Double yolk again!  That time I called her to come see.  Told her how rare that would be.  Broke another egg.  Double yolk again!  Broke another egg.  Another double yolk.  Four eggs in a row out of a dozen eggs purchased at Aldi’s.  I scrambled them – but fortunately I remembered the camera first.

More of the story.  The fifth egg was a single yolk.  The sixth was also double yolk.  Poor Hen!  All that work for her small portion of five cents per egg.  All the rooster did was strut.  😀

About oneta hayes

ABOUT ME Hello. To various folks I am Neat’nee, Mom, Grandma Neta, Gramma, Aunt Neta, Aunt Noni, Aunt Neno, and Aunt Neto (lots of varieties from little nieces and nephews). To some I’m more like “Didn’t you used to be my teacher?” or “Don’t I know you from someplace?” To you, perhaps, I am a Fellow Blogger. Not “fellow” like a male or a guy, but “fellow” like a companion or an adventurer. I would choose to be Grandma Blogger, and have you pull up a chair, my website before you, while I tell you of some days of yore. I have experienced life much differently than most of you. It was and is a good life. I hope to share nuggets of appreciation for those who have gone before me and those who come after me. By necessity you are among those who come after me and I will tell you of those who came before. Once upon a time in a little house on a prairie - oops, change that lest I commit plagiarism - and change that “house on the prairie” to “dugout on the prairie.” So my story begins...

    That’s pretty crazy. I’ve only seen a double yoke very few times, let alone 4 eggs at once!

    Wow! This must be some sort of record. I’ve seen a few times in my whole life but never more than one double say in a two week period. Thanks for sharing! Again all I can say is WOW!

    So funny to find so many in one carton of eggs. We get one like that occasionally, but you’ve set a record! 🙂

      Hey, I was thinking about you last night. Thought it had been quite a while since you had visited me. But here you are – browsing around a bit. Time sure gets away from one, doesn’t it.
