I dyed some eggs yesterday - purple cabbage worked the best. Turmeric was ok, and paprika and beets were very light.
We hid the eggs (and some little non-crappy foil ones) this morning and waited for Josh to get up. Once he came downstairs, I explained the concept of "The Easter Bunny Game" to him, more or less.
Josh labeled them "Sneaky Eggs", and also told us that WE were sneaky. J said, "And don't you forget it!".
I felt the need to also hide a sprouting potato - in my defense, it was egg shaped. Josh first looked under it, found no eggs, and then about 5 minutes later found it again and triumphantly put it in his basket. Ugliest egg EvAr!
10 small foil eggs in 20 minutes isn't that bad, as sugar-highs go. I'm glad I limited my chocolate buying, even though I was tempted to get Josh one of those awful half-wax chocolate bunnies (mostly for the sake of nostalgia).
