We actually blow the yolk out of the egg through 2 small holes at the top and bottom so we can enjoy them as decorations longer!

My family always eats our decorated Easter Eggs–but we leave the prettiest ones for last. :)

No, I don’t.

They are so pretty-ful that I leave them out ages after Easter and they go bad.

As long as the eggs haven’t been out of the frig too long of course I would eat the hard boiled eggs.

I like to put them on display until they go bad or my mom eats them. :-)

Yes. We make potato salad, add them to our salads, and just plain eat them. Yummy…

What cute baskets! I definitely eat the decorated eggs because something about making scrambled eggs from a beautifully dyed egg makes them taste so much better! We save the prettiest ones and use them on the table as a centerpiece and then enjoy the rest.

It depends on how they’ve been handled and how long they’ve been out. So, my answer is sometimes!

I love the pretty baskets you’ve shown in this blog.

You mean, people don’t eat their decorated eggs? Well, indeed we do! In the form of egg salad…delish!

Yes, we love eating our decorated eggs – usually as deviled eggs. But candy eggs are our favorite!!

Absolutely! something about the vinegar in the dye bath makes them taste even better. And that lovely crackled dyed look. Yum.
