Happy Easter!

We tried out a new egg dying technique this year and it paid off.   You make your egg dye as usual  (ours is 1 c. boiling water, 1 t. vinegar and 15 drops of food coloring), then add about 1/2-1 T. of oil.  You stir the water and oil just before you drop the eggs in and you get a beautiful colorful swirly design on the eggs, see:

The kids had lots of fun with it and tried several color combinations.  We used red, yellow, blue and green dye to create these.  Have fun.
