God, I miss California. Here are two completely unrelated reasons why:
1. Egg prices are going up because of a California law that went into effect on January 1 mandating that egg farmers give their chickens more room in their cages. Starbucks, Burger King and Whole Foods already do not buy eggs from caged chickens. Now all eggs that are sold in California, including eggs from other states, must be from chickens either free range or in ample cages. Paying a few more cents a dozen is a small price to pay to end the cruel practice of confining chickens to tiny cages.
2. I was forwarded a photo of the new Speaker of the California Assembly receiving a congratulatory kiss from her spouse. You can see it at <http://www.sacbee.com/opinion/editorials/article4885797.html>.
