The Summer Garden

7 jars of Raspberry-Peach Jam, 9 jars of Blueberry-Strawberry (freezer) Jam (best enjoyed with "Suesse Hoernchen")

I just love those big combs and waddles!

All the girls are in full production mode now, we've had 6 eggs every day for the last 5 days. A few days ago we were inspired by "Master Chef" and had poached, soft boiled, and "sunny side up" eggs for breakfast. Delicious!
