Ducks in the millpond, Geese in the ocean; Hug them pretty girls, If I take a notion.
Ducks in the millpond, Geese in the clover. Fell in the millpond, Got wet all over.

​TODAY'S RECIPE & NUTRITION TIP! Creamy Duck Egg Flan from Insteading.com's 10 Delectable Duck Egg Recipes. What a simple but elegant dessert! Duck egg flan can be made up to two days before serving. Garnish your flan with whipped cream and fresh berries for an elaborate but easy dessert.  Find your Duck Eggs from Maryland Duck Company and your local strawberries from our two Fruit & Veggie vendors at the market, Chestnut Hill Farm Market & Five Points Farm Market & Greenhouse.

Did you know? Duck eggs are an excellent source of nutrition. Their dark yellow yolk indicates that they hold more antioxidants, more omega-3 fatty acids, and 50% more vitamin A than chicken eggs. Duck eggs offer more protein than chicken eggs, even taking size into consideration. Protein can help you build lean muscle, maintain a healthy weight, and recover after exercise or injury.  Learn more about the Health  Benefits of Duck Eggs on  Nourish by WebMD.
