Just wondering do you dye Easter eggs and if you do how many? What's your favorite color to dye an egg? :angel11:

Rarely. Did it a few times when I was a kid, and preferred "tyedying" them, but our family usually goes for the plastic eggs. I don't have kids of my own, but my nieces/nephews usually do a dozen then devil them for Easter Dinner :)

I love the new pastel colors and I still dye a dozen for my husband and I.  Easter would never be the same if I did not dye easter eggs.  I still use the Paas dye that uses vinegar.

I loved dying eggs as a child. My favorite colors were pink and purple. We always colored at least 2 dozen eggs.It was Fun!
I do like egg salad every once and a while but really don't care for eggs so I stoppted coloring eggs years ago. :wave:

We color a couple dozen with our kids.  They enjoy using a wax crayon to make designs then dye them.  The images where the crayon was don't color so you can see them when the egg is dipped/colored.  We try to make the coolest colored egg by mixing them.

I don't have any kids so I used to go to my sister's house and dye eggs with my 2 nieces.
They are  now grown and both are at college this year ... hmmmm ... maybe my sister and I
will still have an egg dyeing night ... that sounds like a good excuse to just hang out and
catch up with my sis.

We haven't colored eggs in awhile.  I believe we will this year though.  Just cuz we haven't yet with our kids and they will love it!  :)
