I know, I know, I KNOW!! I did the same a few years ago, fully intending to "do" a water colour of them, but never did. Aren't they just so wantable though? x
They are certainly beautiful and worth buying just for blog candy! I feel that if you decide to make fairy cakes, they should be especially dainty in size.
We have quail and they are quite delightfulcreatures. The eggs are good boiled if you can contemplate shelling them all, my husband loves them. He sometimes pickles a far (yeuch, I hate pickled eggs). They are also adorable fried on a warm salad.
What to do now?
Anyone for fairy cakes?

ReplyDeleteYou could just look at them?
ReplyDeleteIs it too late to incubate? ;)
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful in all their tiny speckled-ness.
ReplyDeleteWell you did what I would do.
ReplyDeletePhotographed them.

ReplyDeleteThose are incredibly beautiful.
ReplyDeleteeat them! they are delicious lightly boiled with various antipasti meats, pickles and other Italian delights with crusty bread for supper.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of our alfresco lunch at Ali's--the first time I'd ever tried a quail egg! K x
ReplyDeleteYou could alwasy just have mini fried eggs on toast!
ReplyDeleteThey are very beautful. What does one do with quails eggs?
ReplyDeletemicro-omlettes!
ReplyDeleteGood thing my boys aren't around otherwise you'd just have empty eggshells!
ReplyDeleteBoil, peel, rock salt with pepper and celery salt. Yum yum.
I don't know. I would have dropped them by now.
ReplyDeleteblow them all empty, make omelettes and save the shells for next year..........
ReplyDeleteOh whatever you do, definitely save the shells. They give new meaning to the word "exquisite"!
ReplyDeleteI love quail's eggs. They're great in a salad with warm chicken and croutons. A great summer dish.
ReplyDeleteI'd hard cook them - then put them in a special something (dish, with a name, perhaps?) and lay them on the dining table to admire.
ReplyDeleteIf you're truly stuck, send them here. My children love the smallness of them and are very rarely allowed to have them.
ReplyDeleteI usually boil them but I think I would like to see a picture of a fried one ...
