The dyeing step of the Easter egg process is much more fun for everyone (but more so especially those of us who don’t have to clean up afterward).

We used a water, vinegar, and food dye mixture. It didn’t make for as vivid eggs as we’re used to, maybe, and they’re a bit splotchy, but it was more like “cooking.”

The kids loved stirring up the dye liquid and pouring it over the eggs. They liked mixing up the colors a little, too.

Thank goodness I put down the old cloth. We survived with relatively few dyed areas, furniture, skin, or otherwise. :P
