I am trying to be a good earth inhabitant and this bled over into the easter/spring feast.
Natural egg dyes.

To make the dye, bring the water and color source to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes. Cool and strain through cheesecloth-lined strainer, then stir in vinegar.

Red
2 raw beets grated
2 cups water
2-3 tsp white vinegar

Blue
1 cup purple grape juice
3 cups water
2-3 tsp white vinegar

Yellow (this is one I tried and it is beautiful and very vibrant)
2 table turmeric
2 cups water
2-3 tsp of white vinegar

beets, grapes, vinegar, tumeric, eggs, easter
