What better way to make a tribute to all the hens that provide us than to to color eggs and celebrate one of the great traditions of Easter!

Tip –
Add a teaspoon of baking soda to water before you bring to boil & that will help your eggs peel cleanly!

Chill your eggs!

We tried out an egg coloring option that involved whipped cream:

Heavily line a pan with whipped cream – YUM

Add food coloring of your choice – we went for a multicolor tie dye look!

Wash them off, lightly or more and Voila!

See the results & enjoy your Easter Eggs, whatever way you like them!

The grass is greening up, chickens are starting to lay…and the first few eggs of the year have a tendency to be funky. Stories have been rolling in about weird eggs — double yolkers, triple yolkers, and even the rather astonishing egg shown here.

Our neighbors cracked open this huge specimen last summer and found inside not only two yolks…but also a smaller egg complete with shell!

I’ll bet you can’t top that story…but maybe you can? If so, I hope you’ll email your weird egg photo (and story) to aimee@wetknee.com so we can share it with the world!
