[blparent] coloring eggs

[Veronica Smith]

That is.  I believe it.  A friend of mine colors 3 dozen eggs each year.  We
only do 1 and it takes us forever to eat them.  It's a good thing Gab loves
them nimus the eggie balls.  At WW, 3 egg whites is equal to 1 whole egg and
is only 1 point or the equivalent of 50 calories. V

I was reading the other day that Americans buy 20 million more eggs for
Easter than they do in any other week of the year.  Poultry raisers actually
increase production about six weeks ahead of time by manipulating the light
received by the hens so that they think that a day and night passes in eight
hours, and so each hen lays three eggs instead of one in a 24-hour period
during the six weeks before Easter.  I thought that was really interesting.
