Easter Festivities - Coloring Eggs

Of course we had to have the Disney Princess Egg Dyeing Kit this year, so here are our two little princesses modeling their paper crowns (later ripped in half by Princess Eva).

After multiple spills and green dye all over the kitchen, we decided to just give Eva some water with yellow food coloring and let her go to town and hope for minimal damage. Her egg unfortunately did not escape unscathed and was in smithereens by the end of it all.

The finished product!




Later when Little Miss Imp was otherwise occupied, Sophia, Daddy, and Mommy made Resurrection Buns. Unfortunately this is the only picture I got! We read the Easter story with her from the Children's Bible too.

Here's the recipe - it's simple and they are very yummy!

Ingredients:

frozen bread rolls

large marshmallows

cinnamon-sugar mixture

butter (melted)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 325.
Take bread dough rolls (thawed) and flatten with hands.

Take 1 marshmallow and place it in the center of the dough.
Now "fold" the dough around the marshmallow, pinching to crease seams.
Dip the ball of dough in the melted butter and then roll it in the cinnamon-sugar mixture until covered.
Place on greased cookie sheet. Cover with wax paper and let rise overnight.

Bake at 325 for about 10-15 min. or until golden brown.
Allow buns to cool. The buns which were full when they went into the oven will now be empty -- just like the tomb where Christ was laid!
Consider reading the Easter story aloud while enjoying these seasonal treats.
