Easter Eggs


Okay, one more quick one. I was way behind on the blog posts, but I want to be able to just write about Wellington as soon as I get back without having to do any catch-up, and same with Rarotonga. Today, Erin's friends Adeline and Lauren (sp? on both) arrived. They are both on Erin's study abroad program in Brisbane, and they are both from France. Dyeing eggs was a new tradition to them, as they usually paint blown eggs. We are not quite so patient for either painting or egg blowing, so we dyed them hardboiled as per the American tradition.

Lauren dyeing an egg purple:

I introduced the rubber band to them (Shalom and Erin included) as a decorative device. None of them had ever dyed eggs with rubber bands before, and the result was nice:

The red with yellow stripes is Erin's, the green/blue egg with the lines that look like a stick figure is Shalom's, and the other two are mine.

Erin's egg matched her shirt. And our complete dozen (note the French flag upper left):


Happy Easter, everyone!
