Breakfast: toasted some of Monday's bread - mostly white, with some seedy bits. A streak of bacon and then four gently fried quail eggs. They are tiny. The fragile shell contains a tough membrane, so cutting the tops off is the only reliable way of getting them out with the large yolk in one piece. Even so I only managed to get one whole onto my toast. The large yolk gives it a creamy texture, with a flavour maybe slightly less eggy than chicken can sometimes be.

* Proper post on my new living arrangements and cohabitants in preparation. Because it's worth writing about.

Dit is deel van die plan :-)
OMG so jealous!!! Was talking to friend Mimi last night about bringing quail eggs to them for dinner tonight (donders duur)...lightly hard-boiled, peeled, and dipped into little dishes of mixed slat and pepper.Heerlik. Pictures of your quails?
Yip, the ones in at the market are ridiculous! But I'm sure you can find space on a roof, somewhere...
Also contemplating that spanish egg in soup habit - but with mini eggs...
Pictures will come :-)
