TREATS FOR BODY AND SOUL
÷SPEAKING of health, Derry and I got a lovely healthy surprise last week — an early Easter gift of Margaret’s Happily Free Range Eggs. There were white eggs, eggs enriched with omega-3 and regular free-range eggs for all to enjoy. Eggs are so easy for me to do. They are a great source of protein and so easy to prepare.
During the last big snow, we had eggs for breakfast, on our burgers and with smoked salmon on different days. Even Derry reckons I make better poached and scrambled eggs than he does. Praise indeed.
Even though I don’t have children to cook for any more, I still love a boiled egg with toast. There’s nothing better.
It’s comfort food at its best and so good for you. For over 30 years Margaret and her growing family of passionate farmers have been 100% dedicated to free range, and inspired to keep hens, care for the land and produce eggs in the right way.
For egg recipes with a difference Margaret has teamed up with Killian Byrne of Operation Transformation — I love the Ham & Egg Cup recipe.

NYX does a gorgeous green cream eyeshadow called Morning Sky with a delicate pearl finish for €8 . It’s really lovely, as pencils to match at only €7 each. Available from pharmacies nationwide.
