Naturally Dyed Easter Eggs

I love the look of rustic and natural. Easter eggs dyed with vegetables and spices have a muted color – and occasionally marbled. Sometimes you get exactly the color you were going for and sometimes you get surprised. Either way, it’s fun to do and the eggs come out beautiful!

The color egg you start with will affect the color you end up with. Brown eggs give a more muted look while white eggs are brighter.

Want to try it yourself? Keep reading and I’ll explain how I did it.

What’s for Dinner? Sunday Link up #463

What a crazy week!! We’ve been wildly busy – the sun was out – and got to work in my yard. Our two ponds out back both need work before we can get them up and running – and we need to get them up and running before we get too much heat –  don’t want skeeters. 

We worked until 1:30am to catch two feral cats to be neuters (we got one) –  And we spent yesterday taking and picking up the one we caught – and trying to catch up on sleep. We had to get up at 5:30am to get to the appointment on time. I was so tired I didn’t even eat!

SO needless to say, I’m behind on everything else. Working on my summer routine. I need some easy dinners! What are you’re dinner ideas?

What’s for Dinner? Sunday Link up #462

I’m loving the sunshine these days – still lots of rain, but a sunny day inserted here and there. I’ve been working in my yard. I moved two blueberry bushes that have been in shade and not producing, and planted a new one. Three blueberry bushes. Fingers crossed for some little blue gems.

I’m also creating a tea garden – herbs to use in tea. Keep a watch out for a grow some tea post!

And while I’m working outside and planning and planting, we still need dinner. Any ideas? Share them here!
