Fern went to the Market

We have a market in Nelson that is on every Saturday morning where people can bring what they have made to sell to people. Fern is looking for something to buy. He is going to buy eggs first. He needs five dollars to buy a jumbo tray.
He might want to buy the paua. Paua is a kind of shell. It is very beautiful. This paua is made into a Maori design.
He could have these greenstones for earings or pendants. Greenstone is found in the rivers of the South Island of New Zealand.

Is the green stone easy to find in the rivers? Did Fern go home from the market and have an omelet?
