Happy Easter!🐰🐣
From the Roots & 'Shrooms Gang to you, we wish you a Happy Easter, a lovely Spring, and a great day! To celebrate the occasion, Ashleaf and Fernadette decided to color some eggs! Spring is all about color and everything coming back to life after a long Winter season, and eggs are often associated with new life and fertility. What better way to celebrate everything blooming and life springing anew than with some vibrantly colored eggs? ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
Satisfaction guaranteed!
Egg Coloring with Me and @socially-awkward-chocobo today!
This was a new coloring kit we’ve never used before so there was a learning curve. it’s amazing how the dark colors wiped off to almost completely pastel colors
Instead of dipping in dyes with vinegar and water, we used a packet of powder and some water and a hand mixer to whip it up like a meringue. It honestly looked like the meringue cookies I like to make. So much so, Choco even asked if we could eat it (I wasn’t sure but decided we shouldn’t. Though egg dyes are usually safe enough in case it gets through cracks in the eggs, but i figured it wouldn’t taste very good)
It was so weird to use foam to dye the eggs. We had 3 colors only, to drip and mix into the foam and then dip eggs. It was definitely a fun and unique experience, even if they’re mostly the same colors (I wish there’d been more distinct color variation from one egg to the next), they still had fun patterns.
We did REDIP a few eggs that had blank spots, because we found out the foam won’t really drip to cover them during the sitting process.
Between us, it was pretty clear that our favorite color was NOT green, as there was almost no green on any of those eggs till we redipped 5 or 6 of them on purpose.
Happy Easter!!!
“I just don’t understand what coloring eggs has to do with Jesus.”
Cas dips one of the hardboiled eggs into a cup of yellow coloring. Like most things in their relationship, Cas has yet again found himself begrudgingly partaking in one of Dean’s ideas, despite his lack of understanding.
“It’s not about that,” Dean says, pulling a bright orange egg from one of the cups, setting it on some newspaper to dry. “It’s about the novelty. It’s about the candy. It’s about having fun as a family.”
“Yeah,” Jack interjects, pouring half a pack of glitter on top of his egg. “It’s about having fun.”
“Well, I for one think this is awesome.” Sam smiles, carefully gluing two felt antlers onto his egg which reads, “Moose.”
Eileen signs to him that his egg is cute, just like him.
Dean places the orange egg in front of Cas. “This one is for you.”
Cas reads the little message written on the egg, raising his eyebrows. “He is risen?”
Dean nods, “Yeah. You were gone in the empty and now you’re back! Easter is like, the perfect holiday for you.”
“For all of us. Death doesn’t take in this family,” Eileen says, thinking about how many times all of them have collectively died, and somehow found their way back to each other.
Sam chuckles and Jack pays the comment no mind, choosing instead to focus on getting the perfect tie dye look on his next egg.
Cas places little bumble bee stickers on his bright yellow egg, and a couple of flowers. Maybe Dean has a point, it is fun to sit around and do something normal without the impending doom of the apocalypse hanging over their heads.
Dean works on writing something on an egg, but he doesn’t want anyone to see. He feels stupid because it’s something so simple, but it’s something he hasn’t gotten to do before.
“Done!” Jack holds up a messy little egg with colors splashed all over, but the smile on his face was so bright, and so innocent, all his dads and Eileen could do was smile and tell him that he did a good job.
“I know this is going to seem extra corny, but whatever. I fought my whole life to have moments like this, so here you go.” Dean sets another egg down in front of Cas. It’s half blue and half green, with blue and green egg stickers placed on each side, and in marker Dean wrote “Dean <3 Cas”
Cas picks it up and smiles. “That’s very sweet of you, Dean. I heart you too.”
Dean leans over and gives Cas a quick kiss.
“Gross.” Jack says, turning his focus back to the sparkly egg that he created, because that’s so much better than watching his dads make out.
“Really?” Dean asks, turning to look at Jack.
“Yeah, I’m with the kid. Y’all gotta cool it with the PDA,” Sam says, taking a swig of beer.
“Whatever, Bitch.”
“Jerk.”
“Hey,” Eileen interrupts, “Be nice or I’ll make sure the Easter bunny brings you vegetables for Easter.”
The rest of the evening is spent sharing laughs, and enjoying each other’s company. It was their first Easter as a family, and hopefully there would be many more to come.
HAPPY EGG DAY
Happy Springtime!
Conjuring Easter egg hunts and springtime is this adorable letterhead from the Paas Dye Company. Tiny elves dye enormous Easter eggs. The Paas Company has been making egg dyeing kits since 1893 and is still going strong today.
We stumbled on this letter, from 1940, in the records of the House Ways and Means Committee. Because businesses write to Congress about tax and tariff legislation that affects them, the records of the Ways and Means Committee are filled with wonderful letterhead like this.

Happy Spring! :D
My sister and I bought eggs and a marble egg dye kit and we colored eggs for spring!
