Eggs, eggs, eggs...

In the Kitchen

Last week, I got some duck eggs from Meadowlark Heritage Farm!  I had duck eggs for breakfast yesterday.  I had never tried duck eggs...they were great!  Everyone says they are super good for baking.  I will be making some cookies later this afternoon...

Yesterday, I went to the Women in Ag Conference.  I met a lady that said she sells goose eggs and duck eggs.  I was really interested in the goose eggs!  She said that she has 3 pairs and that they mate for life.  They only lay eggs in the spring (March through June).  She sells them at the Co-op so the boys and I went to the Co-op and bought one.  They sell individually for $2 each.  In this picture, the duck egg is on the top, the chicken egg is the brown one on the left and the goose egg is the bottom right.  I will probably be eating the goose egg for breakfast tomorrow.

Women in Ag Conference

The conference topic was communication.  We walked through a DiSC Personality Test and tried to figure out which "personality style" we had.  The idea is that if we understand our personality/communication style and recognize that others have different ways of communicating, then we can identify different types and adjust our communication to fit that person.  Or, just don't talk to personality types you do not like...just kidding!

If you are looking for a quick tool to help you better understand yourself – and others – immediately, you are in the right place. Our Free disc Personality Test gives you an instant estimate of your disc profile based on answers to 12 short questions.

In no more than 10 minutes (probably more like five), you’ll have a better understanding of why you communicate the way you do and insights into how you can communicate with others more effectively. With your results, you can:

Immediately improve interpersonal communications

Connect with co-workers more effectively

Understand what you need to do to be more successful in your interactions with others.

It was hard for me to narrow it down...I felt that I was D, C and S.  I knew that I was definitely not an "I".  Then, someone told me that you could take a free test online.  I did the 12 question test and it came out with D, C, and S.  Of course, they want me to pay to find out more details about which type best fits me (not going to happen.)  I feel that I am mostly C...(maybe that is wishful thinking...)
