Invasion of the Bygons

Until recently, my maternal grandfather raised chickens.  Niall loved collecting the eggs when we visited.  He would go from nest to nest to gather them, and put them in a basket.

Walking back to the house, he stumbled and barely recovered.  My mouth was open to say “maybe we shouldn’t put all the eggs in one basket”, and then thought Oh.  Huh.  That’s where that comes from.
