The eggs look great. What do you paint them with?
ReplyDeleteThere's a special dye sold around Easter. Just dip them in for 2 minutes. Very easy
DeleteThey look great.
ReplyDeleteI’m not doing eggs this year. I’ve gone a new way
Just wait and see.
Oooh, that sounds interesting!
DeleteThe look like red jaffas!
ReplyDeleteWish they were! Haven't had a Jaffa in years
DeleteBetter watch they don’t get rolled down the aisles!
ReplyDeleteYe gods and little fishes, did you do that too! What a waste of Jaffa's that was! Love em
DeleteToo pretty to crack open!
ReplyDeleteWe will be eating boiled eggs till they come out of our ears!
DeleteThey look like Snooker balls. You will be right on cue for the Midnight Mass.😊
ReplyDelete. We crack them like conkers to see who has the strongest egg,cwhich doesn't get eaten
DeleteWe have just been given a basket of coloured eggs, are they really safe to eat if you don't do your own? I've seen them in the laiki and supermarket over a week ago! 🤔 Yours look fabulous.
ReplyDeleteWe spent a few hours at the church hall dyeing eggs yesterday…we did about 250 or so of them, not including the ones that cracked or split open. Then polished and cooled, bagged with a koulourakia...plush 4 more tsoureki (we fell short on the orders!). The bags will be handed out on Pascha. Romeo was chrismated on Lazarus Saturday!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of dye do you use? I'm tempted to try the onion skins next year....
