My Russian grandma always brought us deep mahogany brown eggs that were dyed in a pot full of onion skills and trimmings collected for about a month before Easter. Not a pastel, but a beautiful color nonetheless. Lovely eggs and an even lovelier Baby Yum in the garden.

I love any type of holiday craft activity! Hi Alisa, Thank you! Baby Yum had a great Easter, except for brief trauma over the Easter Bunny man at our community Easter Egg Hunt. She howled! lol. Hi Shirley, Why thank you! I love sharing my baby girl. She's such a huge part of my life I just can't leave her out of the blog... Hey VegJ! Yes, I'm trying to get her interested in food and cooking. She loves helping in the kitchen. Now if only she'd eat everything she helps me make... Donna,

Hi Shirley,
Why thank you! I love sharing my baby girl. She’s such a huge part of my life I just can’t leave her out of the blog…

Hey VegJ! Yes, I’m trying to get her interested in food and cooking. She loves helping in the kitchen. Now if only she’d eat everything she helps me make…

Thanks for all the delicious recipes you post. The pictures of baby Yum are so precious. What a cutie she is. I remember when you first told everyone on "Silly Yaks" you were pregnant. Hey Sea,

I love the soft pastel look of them and can't believe they are natural dyes! So cool. Baby Yum looks like she is having loads of fun. Those eggs are so beautiful!

The picture in the recipe is from 2008, so I don't exactly recall, but I think I may have soaked the eggs in purple cabbage "juice" overnight to get that deep color. My Mom accidentally bought radicchio (mislabeled) at the store, so this year I got a very light "blue". I actually like it as it seems more like a natural color that would come from a hen, but the deep blue is certainly striking. I may have to try soaking some overnight again with the proper cabbage dye to see if I can get the same results again! Thanks for the Baby Yum love. It was a pretty special weekend, full of holiday fun and quality time with Baby Yum and the DH. *hugs* -Sea Why thank you, all!
