The Master

Millie told me straightforwardly and with no hint of jealousy that she thinks Annika knows how to make prettier Easter eggs than she does. Really, Annika's secret is simple. She scientifically dunks each egg in nearly every color. Observe.

The method requires great concentration.



Dunk once.


For the sake of efficiency (and because there's only so much that you'll all endure), I'll skip the pictures of dunks two and three. Here's dunk the fourth.



Dunk the fifth.


Skipping dunks six and seven, for the reasons stated above...



While she finishes dunk the eighth, she streamlines her efforts by simultaneously beginning a dunk the first on a new victim.

*sigh*

Sadly, no eggs (or hands) ever did end up finding color out here. I was determined to do so after we returned, but then-Easter preparations, caring for our hospitalized neighbors' daughter...etc. Never happened. Now-Panda's birthday. I guess we'll have to forgo this fun until next year. It was fun watching your girls enjoy it though!

Better to skip it than to jam it in there just for the sake of doing it! Next year, you can dye twice as many eggs to make up for it.

And you just reminded me that Annie's birthday is also next week, and I haven't been able to leave the house to get what we need for the celebration. AHHH!
