ON THE BRIGHT SIDE 

MONDAY, JUNE 2ND, 2025

The moments of our lives may be bright with possibility, dark with fear or sadness, or even plain everyday gray, but God's glory never fades.  May God's glory shine into the exciting lights, upsetting darks,  and boring grays of your every day.

Today is National Egg Day, which celebrates an excellent source of protein and Vitamin D, which makes eggs one of the healthiest Breakfast foods. There are more than a hundred ways to cook eggs. Some of the most popular are scrambled, fried, poached, hard boiled sunny side up and over easy.

While eggs that we eat are typically come from chickens, a wide range of poultry like ducks and geese provide a tasty egg variety.  Quail eggs, for example, are considered a delicacy in my countries.

Celebrate today and cook up your favorite egg recipe for breakfast, lunch, or even dinner

THOUGHT  FOR TODAY

 Eggs are very good for us.  Some people don’t like to eat egg yolks because of High Cholesterol, but I don’t have a problem with that. My daughter’s son prefers egg whites scrambled when he eats them.  My favorite eggs has always been the sunny side up ones,  but I do like scrambled eggs too.  

I also love deviled eggs and hard boiled eggs chopped in a salad or just alone. Egg salad sandwiches are among my favorites too, and they are usually a part of making lots of baked goods too. We always have eggs on hand here.  

We need protein in order to grow and maintain overall health. Protein is important to help your body repair cells and make new ones.  It speeds up recovery after excercise or injury.  It reduces muscle loss, builds lean muscles, curbs hunger,  and helps maintain a healthy weight loss. 

Don’t forget to keep eggs in your diet.  They are so very good for us.

Fresh eggs are tastier than the ones we buy in the store and many people keep chickens so they have them all the time.  I remember a time my mom told me I was eating duck eggs so I would eat more of them.  My grandparents had lots of chickens and one of them often  laid eggs with a double yolk and that is what they passed off as duck eggs to me.  So I grew up eating fresh eggs and know the difference. 

Eggs will keep a long time especially when refrigerated.  My grandma sold eggs from her chickens and made her spending money with them.  She would call it her pin money because she loved to sew and used the money to buy what she needed to make things. 

It’s a new week with a fresh start and I love it!  Who knows what might happen.  It seems every day brings new surprises with it!  

I hope you all have a GREAT start to this new week.  Happy Monday!
