Quail Egg!
What Is an Egg?
by Lucia Kemp Henry & Denise Nesbitt
(Guess which verse I wrote! LOL!
What is an egg?
It's a special place.
It's warm and it's safe.
It's a cozy space.
What is an egg?
It's a place to start
Growing bones and a beak
And feathers and a heart.
What is an egg?
It's a place to grow
For a chick and a duck
And an owl and a crow.
What is an egg?
It's a place to begin
For all sorts of birds;
For rooster and hen.
What is an egg?
And why this tail
Well it is ABC Wednesday
and Q is for Quail!
I really enjoy creating the cards I produce, not only for the really special occasions like weddings and births but for everyday occasions......celebrating the things in our lives which matter, like friendship!by Lucia Kemp Henry & Denise Nesbitt

Quails' eggs are my favourite, but they say not to eat too many. High cholesterol? Hmm! I like that quote... a good friend is someone who thinks you are a good egg... hehe!
We had a covey of Quails at work the other day. They were trapped in the tennis court by the fence. They sure were cute pacing around trying to get out. I left the door open and the little family was gone when I went back.
Denise, I have tried to keep my ABC blogroll up to snuff. I going to compare it to yours.
Thanks for starting this. It gives me something to do on Wednesdays instead of it just being trash pick up day here.;-)
I love the phrase "An all round thoroughly good egg". Good idea for ABC.
I like the slightly knacked egg story.
We used to have bobwhites but we never hear them anymore. I love quote about friends loving you even if you are cracked, that quite cracked me up!
great cards, a treasure to receive
Denise, you have given us a pretty little egg today. That Ackworth born comment is just right!
I like the cozy egg quote and your pretty little egg!
I will check my list against yours to keep it up to date. Many thanks for keeping it organized!
Ahhh poor Junior. I don't think I can make soldiers small enough to fit in that egg...LOLRx
ackworth!
What a star!
deb,
I have never had them, but I do really enjoy eggs.
digital,
It is fun isn't it! Must admit Q was a difficult one! LOL!
Mike,
Thanks, yours was good too................but then I WOULD say that wouldn't I!
hpy & Jean
True though!
ibeatie
Hope so
kml & Ruth
Great posts! Just shows how creative your minds are! Ruth.a quiz eh! LOL!
wow never thought about a Quail egg great thinking
Thats such a pretty egg.
Junior is doing well and sympathises with the poor pup in the picture. The life of a conehead seems fraught with danger and doorways which he gets stuck on. So hugs for the pups.
In other ABC news one of our own, Max from the MaXe files had a heart attack yesterday yet managed to have his abc q post published. Now thats dedication.
Kaye,
WOW! Indeed! Max...what a hero!
I didn't know you made cards! I do, too. I only make them for very special people because it takes me the best part of a day to put one together (I embroider), but it really is worth the effort, isn't it?
Loved the "cracked" saying, it made me smile.
ah yes, quail egg.
Very nice.

Eggs"Quisite and a lovely lampshade, I think I left that comment of someoneelse's post
That is a really cool looking egg!! And love the pic with his head stuck in that lamp shade?!?
I like your new header picture. The quail egg is cool. And you're almost done with the ABC's and I've yet to play - pout.
did the egg or the quail come first.
i just realised something, in my perfect dorky state, Im a letter behind you for some reason..Im still on the letter *P*..
Quirky n'est pas?
PEace, Kai xxx
Denise, you always make me laugh! A very nice post!
Never seen one Denise so obviously haven't tasted one. Do children still paint conventional eggs at Easter??
Love the card, it's so nice to get a personalised greeting.
Yes...you are a little quacked DUCKY! sending love.
:-)
Aaaahh, not nice for the dog. I like your cards and have received the card you sent. I'm very happy with it and give it a special place. Thank you very much again.
I never got the last card I won!! And I have never had a quail's egg either LOL
Oh, Poor Puppy Poo!
Quails lay beatiful eggs!
Love the Cracked Egg
Friendship Pharse!!!
I haven't forgot about you!
Like what you did with my photo.
I don't know how to do it on the
computer. I do it at the store on
their machine when I go to have photos cropped. I've also had some altered that turned out pretty wild.
Love your Cards. You have so
much talent Denise!
I'll catch up later on your other
posts. Have a Blessed Month!
I had no idea that you made cards. You are so talented.
My husband and I named our quail Mr. and Mrs. Childless. for 2 years they did not have any babies. This year we saw that they had 5. We were so happy for them. lol.
Fantastic Q post! I've never eaten a quail egg, but I have eaten quail that my maternal grandmother cooked after my Daddy had gone hunting and returned with them.
