Dying Easter eggs. Simple. Fun. Memorable. Until I practically skip giddy with excitement into the egg aisle. Brown eggs. No white eggs. I look at Max. "We aren't in Kansas anymore Toto." "What mommy?" "Oh this is why no one knows what dying Easter eggs is. Silly American mommy fail." "Okay mommy. Dye Easter eggs!!!?!" "Yes dude. Let's see just how brown Easter eggs work. How bad could it be?" "Yay!! Eat Easter eggs?" "Great idea. Where's the chocolate?"
Fun Fact. Brown eggs can be dyed. They look a little pastel but the experience is the same. Max had some friends over and he had a blast dying the eggs and placing stickers on them. We put the kids in painting clothes just in case ironically they were messier eating chocolate! Finding the chocolate eggs we bought was the highlight though. He had 5 chocolate eggs eaten before I knew it.
Living in a different culture continues to give us the greatest stories. Lucky Max and future filled with two cultures and lots of crazy traditions.
