Eggs Today For Free No Pay

Eggs today. For free. No pay! What kind do you have? Mink eggs. Mink eggs! For real? Why would I lie? They are furry and tickle. I stare in disbelief. We have elephant eggs and oyster eggs too! I stare. What part of the country are we visiting? My husband looks at me. “Which do you want?” he asks. As if this is normal. We have some dipped in chocolate, they are surprise eggs. You do not know until you take a bite what they are. I stare at my husband. You choose, I tell him. Do you have pink elephant eggs? Sure! I will take a dozen.

Mink ones, not sure on the fur getting stuck in my teeth, the oyster ones are hard as pearls and may break my teeth, chocolate surprise ones, not sure what I would be getting, pink elephants ones, well, I can see why you got a dozen . . . ; )
