Another mysterious coconut along with hideously expensive butter and what looks like 3 of the regular 10-cent loaves of bread. Then a dozen (pricey) eggs on Thursday, and that's it till next week! DD notes that the eggs are 3 times the cost of a loaf of bread, which is far from the case today. Why were they so expensive in a city surrounded by a zillion farms?!

I bet eggs are more expensive in the winter, because hens are not laying nearly as much. That's why custards and other spring foods focus on eggs, because the influx happens in spring. And then, there's the eggs the Easter Bunny brings.
