Wow! Amazing colors! How fun. You are so lucky to be able to dye eggs. Not in the cards for me this year but this brings back so many good memories. Thank you!
I wish I had these to give to the hippies at People's park today..
IF it stops raining hahaha
JUST BEAUTIFUL
HAPPY EASTER
These are so pretty! Oh, I miss that part of Easter! ~r
Thanks!! I hoped you might like....
Happy Easter!
Happy Spring!
Just plain old Happy Day to you all : )
Eggscellent post, J.T.! Happy Easter!
Thanks, 'm'! Happy Easter to you as well : )
This makes me recall a Russian painted wooden egg. I always wonder what happens to stuff?
Maybe the Easter Thug?
Easter Bunny steal eggs?
Government kills a hen.
Politicians steal sprouts.
huh?
I recall One Easter Meal.
Pink gum was in Brussels.
The young chew Tuti Fruit.
Then - Hide gum in Greens.

Once O washed dirty clothes.
On laundry day I discovered`
Brussels Sprouts in trousers.
I blamed the rowdy children.

Once there was a condom too.
I blamed the teenager years.
The condom wasn't mine.

Beauty. I want egg salad.
No stuff rooster in pants.
Thanks. I go find a bunny.
Thanks for the Easter poem, Art!
I agree, no rooster stuffed in pants...although, "Cock a Doodle do!" : )
Those are the coolest Easter eggs ever.
Lovely! Happy Easter:)
I love it! You gave me a glimpse of that egg laying bunny!
Beautiful! so glad I clicked here. I used to love dying eggs and making them as pretty as could be with my kids. Happy Easter to you..
Thanks for sharing these most beautiful eggs, reminded me of long ago when the boys and i dyed eggs and they had sooo much candy, I wanted to kill them for their unbelievable hyperness..haha JK. They were loveable, even hyped out!:)
Very cool colored eggs! I have never had egg patience and I could never do something like this. Nice...
I will keep popping back in today ...
Thanks Kim, happy day to you too : )
Happy Easter, scanner : )
Marissa: Nice to 'meet' you...and thanks!
aim: One photo in my email box this morning was of a dog with bunny ears hanging out of its mouth...
...fortunately not THE bunny : )
Pretty darn pretty. I'll bet the rabbit that laid those eggs is feeling pretty sore, too.
Loverly! I unambitiously dyed six eggs Saturday night, whose fate as devilled eggs draws ever nearer. :) Rated
Just so beautiful and clearly made with love.
That Easter bunny sure is a creative little creature! Loved the color! Looks like someone had fun! :)
lovely...love them! thanks...and the same to you...enjoy the egg salad!
I bought two dozen eggs and we didn't color any of them but this is even better because now I don't have 24 hard-cooked eggs no one will eat. And they wouldn't have turned out this pretty either.
These are eggsquisitely colorful - I hope you enjoyed them all. Sorry I'm a day late in commenting but I had an exquisite day away celebrating myself.
♥R
Glorious, gorgeous, colored eggs! Bravo!
Thanks Rita, nice to have you come by for a peek : )

Cindy: It was just like that when our boys were young...now we just sit around and paint too many eggs : )

Lunchlady: We don't do a big dinner or anything else for this holiday living this far from extended family...we color eggs...eat chocolate... and hike in the afternoon. We didn't even get to the hike this year. : )

Matt!! Ouch! Horrible visual... : ) Nice to see you...

Theresa: Nice to have you come by...and yes, once a year endless deviled eggs.

Sally: Thanks! We got out tiny paintbrushes this year...nice to have you come by : )

Thanks Patricia, hope you had a great Easter Sunday!

Persistent Muse: Thanks-- and yes, we're sick of eggs already!

Margaret: Thanks for coming by --- The painting of the eggs is our fun ritual, and your comment made me laugh! Last year we finally got around to egg-dyeing on Easter morning...this year we hard-boiled twice as much as we ever got around to dyeing, two of the five of us don't eat eggs....thank goodness the dog loves hardboiled eggs! (then she stays outside for all her sulfur farts) : )

Fusun: Happy Easter!! I'm glad you had a nice day yesterday....and thanks for coming by!
Cathy! I've been gone too much, I miss what's up your way...thanks for that!
We had a really fun time...come to think of it, no adults were drinking this year!
No one even noticed, that is a good sign of fun being had. : )
Gorgeous! What a creative, colorful approach to Easter eggs!
That was just amazing!!!
That reminds me of when I was a kid and used to color easter eggs. What a great trip down memory lane you just gave me!!!!
