Top Ten Signs that YOU may live on a Chicken Farm:
10. Every time you go to a potluck event, you bring deviled eggs, egg salad, or chicken salad.
9. The crowing roosters wake you up at 5 am, 4 am, 3 am, 2 am, 1 am and midnight.
8. No one wants to eat with you because you always seem to get to the topic of how you "humanely kill chickens" (in graphic detail).
7. You feel at home when you get out of the car and smell the familiar chicken poop smell.
6. Your hands and arms frequently sport small peck marks from huffy hens.
5. You'll be sitting around in public and suddenly notice small flecks of chicken poop or chicken food on your shoes and/or clothes.
4. Your friends who do NOT have chickens have started avoiding you at parties because all you do is talk about your chickens.
3. When you call home, the first thing you ask is, "How're the chickens?"
2. Your to-go container at restaurants is a small bucket that you scrape all your plates into (and if you're not careful, you start scraping others' plates also).
And the #1 sign that you may live on a chicken farm is.....
1. When your beloved crawls into bed at night, you roll over, take a whiff, and ask,"Have you been cleaning out the brooder? Please go take a quick shower....." That chicken smell definitely sticks to your hair!
Boy, I'm guilty of #10! Always having plenty of non-sellable eggs on hand, egg dip is my number one pupu. I have to make a conscious effort to avoid #8 and #4. They're real conversation killers.
ReplyDelete#2 is my number one offense. It's really bad when I start eyeing up other people's plates. Understanding friends now offer me their leftovers, but strangers seem to get offended, don't they?
