Today I spent some time dying Easter Eggs, for my son and nephew to find on Sunday.
The boys were supposed to be doing them, but Grandma and I did most of them while the boys were sword fighting each other. :)
Although, after an overturned cup of green dye, we needed to supplement the cups to finish the eggs.
Food coloring worked so well in place of the pale pastels, and one sided neon pinks, that next year we plan on making all the colors with it, rather than buying a pack. The colors were richer, more true.
We might even go with the old standby of boiling some onion skins for yellow, and figure out other options for natural dyes. I'm all for that!
Finished the eggs and still had time to stop and smell the tulips.
