(12,132 posts)my father-in-law loved to laugh at me and reminisce about the time before I married his daughter when I came over to their house for dinner and they had a basket of eggs on the table from his chicken coops out back. They were all various colors of brown and I picked one up and said "These are fresh? When do they paint 'em white?" Because I had never seen a brown egg and figured the white ones at the grocery were painted/dyed/bleached for marketing purposes. He laughed about that for the next 20 years. I swear he thought his daughter was marrying the dumbest fuck on the planet. But he let it happen anyway.
I kinda miss that old coot. And his eggs - the coops were too much for my mother-in-law to keep up with so she doesn't have them anymore.
