Zeren, I put vegetable oil in some of the coloring cups and it kept the dye from sticking to parts of the eggs. Did you click on the link? It gives detailed directions. Hope you have a great week, too!

Linz, Thanks!

No Holly, feet are gross. Not as gross as snails mind you, but gross. I never met a cute foot.

I'm so with you on the feet thing. And the Johnny Cash thing. I was just today watching videos of him performing (on YouTube-they have one somebody filmed of one of his very last performnances before he died. It was heart-wrenching!).

Connie, I really enjoyed reading this post! It's fun to know a bit more about you and your daughter. :) I'm still catching up on reading blogs but the answer to your question about why my blog is "older than the cheese" is here:

You'll probably have to cut and paste. Sorry!

ROTFL!! Love the 20 random observations! Congrats on the 100 posts. Keep up the great work.

And yes, all feet are ugly. Unless they are baby feet and brand new without that "feet" smell.
