This weekend we took a little trip down to Portland to visit my cousin Ruthie. Isn’t she the cutest?!We had a big time. Portland is too cool! Here’s a sampling from the weekend –
Also Ruth taught me a new way to dye eggs and you know how much I love eggs! Here are some photos of the process –
First you peel some onion skins off of purple and yellow onions and then soak them in water. We also did purple cabbage but it didn’t work too well so I wouldn’t recommend it.
Then you wrap the egg in skins –
You then roll up the eggs in some clean scrap cloth.
Bind the whole thing up in rubber bands and boil like you would hard boiled eggs-
And the result! –
Cool, huh?!
Very cool! Love the pictures! Hi Roothie!
I love that dying method, but haven’t done it in a while! Dontcha just love the Starring cousins in each others blogs? I do. 🙂 Missing all my cousins, as usual.
Cool eggs! It looks easy enough for someone as craft-challenged as me to try!
