Nothing amazing, but it's my first time making it. I usually only buy frozen or sometimes make stuff I can eat in one or two servings because I'm worried I'll forget about the food and/or the ingredients and they'll go bad.

But I'm taking care of my mom's chickens and ducks for a month, and I have too many eggs, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to make stuff I haven't made before.

Since I have more eggs than I know what to do with, if I mess up or make too much or forgot to eat it all, it doesn't feel as wasteful. No fuel burned transporting the eggs either!

I was gonna post this in /c/food, but this is more about trying things I'm normally scared to try due to autism and adhd, as described above.

Also peeling the boiled eggs was a pain and I'm 100% sure I did it wrong.

    love it! I have some chickens but recently was sitting some ducks for a friend- and I loved it! Ducks are so cute and goofy!

    Have you ever baked? Some consider baking with duck eggs to be a delicacy- personally, I don't think I notice too much. but doing baked goods with duck eggs will result in a more fluffy texture. So, something on the simpler side like cookies could be fun to try! Strong work challenging yourself, comrade!

      For Christmas I baked some Donas Amélias (Portuguese molasses cupcakes) with my mom. I think we used a mix of duck and chicken eggs (it takes a lot of eggs) and I don't think I noticed a difference. Then again they aren't very fluffy in the first place. I guess I should find something meant to be fluffy and try it.

        mmmm, very nice! Yeah, I also didn't really notice when baking with the duck eggs, but I had a buddy who bakes and she was very jealous that I had duck eggs- who knows!
