Is egg crisis over? I am seeing the shelf full again. After being deprived so long, I couldnât help grabbing extra two dozens. I didnât need that many. I tried to put them back but I couldnât. I liked having them. Whatâs wrong with me?

I still stock up on TP (and Kleenex and napkins, but especially TP) as if another pandemic will arrive every year.
I canât help myself.
If we donât have the 4 bathrooms stocked and the garage, too, then I feel like we are running low.
Making my therapy appt nowâŠ.
ETA: and garbage bags, too.
Iâve even sent them to my oldest son in DC who tells me to stop bc he has no room.
ETA2: another thread on what we hoard now bc of missing it due to supply shortages during Covid could be quite entertaining.

I also hadnât realized this: âThose late-season hurricanes from the end of 2024 disrupted bird migratory patterns, diverting some birds carrying the virus into areas with chicken farms that they normally wouldnât have visited.â

Itâs almost Easter. Just speculating that the egg farms plan ahead to have extra laying hens ready to go for this time of year and that might be why we are seeing more availability at the moment.

Our Costco (in the greater Town of Grace area 
) finally had eggs! Two dozen of white ones $8.69. Thatâs a whopping price drop of $.20 from the last time I bought them.

I am coveting my dozen and a half eggs for the upcoming Jewish holidays. Both passover and Easter use a lot of eggs.
Husbandâs basketball shooting farmer friend is still trading his product with egg producing neighbor, and bringing eggs to the court to hand out. So looks like weâll manage Passover. Also, local TJâs have had eggs when Iâve been in the stores. I think itâs probably time to ease back on our favorite Eggland eggs.

I think of my hoarding of TP etc as âCOVID-PTSDâ

That is one of the few times I have seen the word âcovetâ used in a context other than a religious prohibition on coveting your neighborâs anything (presumably including eggs). Maybe religious holidays bring that word to mind?
Organic free range brown eggs from Costco today. Just over 8 dollars for 24.
Shelves half full.

Wow, eggs canât win these daysâŠ
I bought 2 packs of 18 today at Costco - the limit was 3 and there were plenty. I only had like 3 eggs left at home but also thought if I got 2 now Iâd be set through Easter. Just because we eat a fair amount of eggs and will have some extra breakfast peeps this month.

This weekend:
Aldiâs $4.97/dozen
Costco $5.79 for 18 eggs
Just got back from Costco. 2 dozen eggs @8.69, cage free. Local eggs were more for fewer eggs so I passed and just got these.
