A couple of months ago I read The Secret Life of Cowboys by Tom Groneberg and I fell in love with his writing. His wife Jennifer’s a lovely writer too and she once commented on my blog, which made me happy.
I have quotes from his book written down and sometimes when I’m hungry I read them – “As August ripens, things sour.” ” Night is gathering. I can smell the burning stars.” Delicious. And fat free.
I’ve gone and memorialized Tom Groneberg’s words on an egg.
“This place I’m dreaming of is tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow. And if it doesn’t exist, I do not want to know about it.”
The end.

Ooooh I love these eggs, and I love the words you’ve chosen for them. In fact, one quote in particular is so appropriate to our lives now that I want to write about it at my own blog and I’ll link to your post here, too.
Thanks for the inspiration, and for sharing this beauty. And thanks for reading Tom’s book!
