OK - Who laid the egg? Someone is going to have to keep it warm.

She carried her hard-boiled egg around quite a bit today. Here, she had the idea that she and her egg would sit next to her two other friends on the steps.

Luckily this day there was only one little cart available. Some days, I get to chase two little carts around the store.

Hold on a moment, I have some sifting to do

In other news, we are all shaken but fine after a magnitude 6.5 earthquake occurred nearby. We had some bookshelves emptied, dust and chips on the floor from cracks in the walls, and a slight creep of the refrigerator, but surprisingly few substantial effects. Some other buildings around didn't fare so well, with Grandma's house among the unlucky ones that had damage both inside and out. She is fortunately OK, just busy cleaning up and arranging repairs.

Merry Christmas!
