I’m a horrible blogger… I am always so late to the game, sharing holiday stuff AFTER the holidays. The reason? I don’t do holiday things ahead of time. I do my holiday preparations, tablescapes, crafts, food for my family, when we celebrate the holidays.
With that said, often times the things that would be helpful to you either don’t get on Dine & Dish or they come way after they are needed. For example, I am certain 90% of you have already dyed your eggs for Easter. There might be a handful of you, who like me, just got around to dying Easter eggs with your kids today and a few more of you who still have eggs to dye. Well, this post is for you, my fellow last minute friends!
My mom called the other day and said “I have a tip for you! You can use a wire whisk as a holder when you are dying easter eggs! Just separate the wires a bit and put the egg inside, then dip it in the dye using the handle of the whisk to hold onto it.” Is that brilliant or what? She read the tip in her local newspaper, and I’m so glad she shared it with me! It was the cleanest egg dying experience we’ve ever had!
Also, Leah wanted to share her tip with you.. Here’s her video on how to crack a hard boiled egg (PS… Simply Recipes has the best recipe for making perfect hard boiled eggs…no fail every time!).
Anyway – I hope you all have a happy Easter and I hope at least one of you finds this tip helpful!
LOL…such perfect timing you have lol…we are just sitiin’ down to dye the eggs now….we will try this whisk idea i love it…thanks so much for thinkin’ of us fellow last minuters (is that a word? it really should be lol)
Yes! We need t-shirts that say “Proud to be a last minuter!”
Have fun with your eggs!
you’re not a horrible blogger, you’re a real life blogger…that’s what I do too. It’s real and true…and genuine, just as you are!
This is brilliant! And we haven’t died eggs yet, so I’d say your timing is perfect! 🙂
Happy Easter Kristen! Great tip 🙂
Ok this video is hilarious. I love her!!! And from one non-holiday blogger to another, cheers!
Too funny——
I don’t normally talk about ME, but please make note of the slight name change from Wild Goose Tea.
New web design—whoopee and adding some new features.
We did this this year. First tip, you can get pretty good whisks at the Dollar Store, which it great, because then you can just leave the egg in the dye while working on others and not spend a ton of money to do it. $1! Yay! Second tip, keep a whisk for each color or wash it off thoroughly, otherwise you run the risk of leaving different color lines all over your egg. It’s a great tip, for sure!
