Easter Eve

I know we aren't the only ones to have been getting ready for Easter tomorrow! I thought I would share just a little of our preparations.

My family has a tradition of coloring the eggs after they have been peeled! :)

I dissolve food coloring in water and put the peeled eggs in it. After they have turned the color I want, I then slice them and make deviled eggs. Yummy! :)


We were going to do a Peep cake, but Mom decided that cupcakes would be easier to serve. (Great idea too!) Why don't we do cupcakes more often... they are so fun! :)

After looking around a little on the internet, I'm kindof wishing we had done green icing...these are really cute! Oh, well. There's always next year! :)

Blessings!

  1. Neat idea about coloring eggs after they are peeled. Do they turn your mouth colors when you eat them?

  2. Tammy - I didn't notice anyone's mouths turning colors. :) The color lightens a bit after overnight in the fridge - the yellow ones didn't even look like they'd been dyed.

    June - Thanks! Glad you had a good Easter as well! :)

    Sorry for the long wait in reply... I guess I took an unofficial blogging break. :)

  3. Oooo, I like the idea of dying peeled eggs.

    And YES, green frosting on the Peeps cupcakes, with Green-dyed coconut for grass! (I love dying coconut, lol.)
