Egg Dyeing!

Today has been an amazingly productive day. Woke up early and made breakfast, then started cleaning and doing laundry. Around noon the laundry was done and the apartment clean. I made lunch while boiling eggs. We boiled 36 eggs before I went into school. I had a short meeting with a teacher then I went to the library and found 9 more books to get me through the weekend. I then came home, took a short nap, then started on dinner. After dinner, we set up the egg dyeing stuff and three of our friends came over to dye easter eggs. It was quite a nice day!

One of the interesting things is trying to figure out the best way to hardboil an egg. We chose three different methods from the internet and then tried all three. The best way I thought was to boil the eggs until my little timer said they were done. Those eggs turned out near perfect. David liked the ones that were still a bit runny inside. Then there were 10 eggs that turned out to be more liquid than solid inside. We coloured them anyways, but we will have to throw them away later. We let Peter dye those since he'll be leaving to go home tomorrow afternoon.

All in all, quite a wonderful day. This weekend the plans are to study and study and study.
