Misadventurous Melissa

Everyday is an adventure, or misadventure as the case may be. It is the latter that makes for the best stories, inspiring the name of my blog. I'm a nurse and an attorney (and way too silly sometimes). I am retired now. WELCOME to my blog! This is a work of fiction inspired by true events. The patients I refer to are a patchwork quilt of various patient's problems mixed together. If you think you recognize someone, you are wrong. These people do not really exist.

Fallen Egg



I found this egg lying in the dirt. I looked around and couldn't find the nest, so I'm not sure what happened.

By the way, I think that's fur stuck to my fingers. When I'm hot and sticky, fur clings to me. Instead of tarred and feathered, I've been sweated and furred.

awwwwwwwwwwww.... I had a parakeet that would get out of her cage and lay eggs in a hanging plant that she would fly to. They never hatched.

You could have cooked them since they weren't fertile. I wonder what parakeet eggs taste like? :)

Madwag, maybe as a garnish rather than a meal it would work, such as potato salad topped with parakeet eggs.

Michelle, I hadn't thought about lizards. I only think of birds as laying eggs.
