Easter Eggs-periments

Chris and I will be together for three years this July, married three in December. Our first Easter he was in Afghanistan, our second one in Guam. This year he is leaving on Easter Sunday for two weeks for classes in Virginia so I'm not making the big meal that I was originally. I am attempting some craftiness though.

I am actually crafty, but each time a person tries something new, it's not necessarily perfect the first go...and you will see how true that is for me if you follow this blog at all.

I got the idea for marbleized boiled eggs off pinterest. They are actually the most perfect boiled eggs I've made in a while. Sitting in cold water in the fridge overnight made the shells much easier to get off.

Pretty shells in the drain.

I made deviled eggs with them so you can't really see the colors anymore. Hopefully I will actually get my husband home next Easter, forth time's a charm! And I will do it different. Boil them, peel and cut them, remove the yolks, and then dye them. So they will be completely pastel colored. 

I piped the yolk back in rather than using a spoon, but I was too impatient to wait for the yolk to warm up a bit so it was a bit of a pain to get out of the tip...and therefore, globby.
