Is that bowl new? I've never seen it before. We seem to have an egg theme going.

Connie-I eat at least a dozen a week. All my colesteral levels are excellent. I think you can really only believe a fraction of what you read.

Sandy-Bowls were a Canadian Tire special. Eggcellent!

I love this photo!

I should cook eggs more often - they are so yummy, but I forget about them, sitting somewhere in the depths of my fridge.(the eggs that is, not me. I do not sit in my fridge. Though I imagine it could be quite restful)

ooh gorgeous photo. I love eggs and this picture looks perfect. Who would've thought - eggs can bring such enthusiastic reactions? (I came over to your website from Lindsay Lobe's website).

Now I remember. You bought the set for Christmas dinner one year. To go with the chargers if I remember. I believe Bert was your guest.

Interesting what people like to look at. Eggs of all things. They are nice and smooth very much like a baby's bottom. Maybe the attraction is a motherly hormomal thing.

Vee-Welcome. Your a fellow canuck? Please check back again sometime. Quite often I have more exciting advenures to post (other then hard-boiled eggs).

Jellyhead-I am going to try and capture the eggs steaming just after they have been removed from the pot of hot water. I think that might be even better.

Hi Wendy! Nice to meet you, and thanks for stopping by to say hello.

We're ovaphiles, too. My son fries his own ("like a man"), and egg-salad is the favourite sandwich in our house.

I don't believe eggs contribute to high cholesterol. Pish. I think it's all the crap, all the refined garbage and artificial colours and preservatives, etc, etc. that are killing us, not real food.

Very nice photo, btw. I wish I could figure out the b&w feature on my digital camera!

Hi Wendy

Those eggs look very smooth indeed, unlike the ones I loved to eat when I lived as a boy in country NSW and we had our own chooks.

Medically speaking it has been confirmed eggs dont cause high cholestoral as was originally thought up until fairly recently.
I was in the supermarket to day and purchased our usual order of Tasmanian salmon steaks and smoked salmon.I am also rather partial to Tasmanian oysters, a favourite amongst Melbourian restaurateurs.

When are you going to post on Salmon farming in Tasmania ? I know a little about your industry and how it's both successful and sustainable, but I'm sure we would be all interested to learn more about it from you !11

Unless your a person who loves the heat I dont think you ever get used to it.

We recently experienced a number of hot days around 40C and a scorcher last Sunday at 44C or 110F.

Tasmania's geographical position means that ozone-depleted air passes over your State in spring and early summer. Be careful to cover up as the effects can be severe, for in these conditions the level of skin-damaging UV radiation increase dramatically.

I am sure you are aware of these aspects.

Best wishes

madcapmom- Welcome and thanks for stopping by. I think the processed junk is what is making us sick too. I used the B&W after I downloaded the pic to Picasa.(which can be downloaded free on line). That way I never have to read the 50000 page digital camera instructions.

Lindsey-I originally started my blog for my Canadian friends we left when we moved to Tasmania. Most of them are in the Salmon Farming industy so it didn't cross my mind that anyone would be interested in reading a post about it.
However I certainly can put together a good post about it and its viability and sustainability since my hubby has been in the field for 20 years and farmed in 4 countries,with one of the largest company in the world and pobably one of the smallest in Tasmania.

If you come to Tasmania, I am sure we could arrange for a tour of the farms,hatcherys,processing plant, labs ect. It is all very interesting.

Thanks for the the confirmation on the health of eggs and the hazards of the UV's in Tassie.
