Today was Easter egg dying day. I don't know what it is about that activity that I love so much. When Clint and I do it together it is definitely a study in our temprements and personalities! I dyed about 11 eggs and Clint dyed about 3. At one point I was dying two eggs at one time. My favorite colors to dye with this time were peach and lime green. My eggs have weird designs, are multi-colored and are not too dark because that takes too long! I want to dip them and move on. Clint on the other hand is very attentive to the egg he is dying (it would be torture for him to do more than one at a time.) He says a good egg is one that has even strong bright color so he spends a lot of time rotating and bathing his egg in the dye. His favorite colors today were straight blue and straight red. He is very steady and thoughtful while he is dying. When we started I set out four paper towels- two for him and two for me. When we finished Clint had only used one of his paper towels and it had about 6 drips of color on it. I had used both of mine- and the other one of his and when I got done with them they looked like soggy crumpled tie-dyed towels. We are so opposite it is a wonder we get along- although we have decided we prefer being refered to as complimentary!
