Happy Easter 2013

Wow, has it been forever since I last posted?  I've been a bit busy learning a new career in Art Education. 

 I love Easter!  Today is the first day of Easter vacation for both Gracie and I so we decided to stay in and dye eggs and make cupcakes.  I just had to share how colorful and darling it came out.  It's so much fun having a little girl!  She makes everything in my life more enjoyable and memorable.


Aren't these bunny toothpicks cute?  Nana sent them with matching polka dot cupcake liners.




Here's the trick to really colorful dyed eggs, cleaning them with vinegar first, rinsing under cool water, THEN boiling, OR drying off raw eggs before dipping in dye.  We opted for raw since no one in my family really eats hard boiled eggs.  I think they turned out great!



Here is Gracie enjoying the fruits of her labor.


Happy Easter!
