We were thrilled that Cheryl & Parker decided to join us this weekend for Easter...and to celebrate Cheryl's & my birthday. To celebrate, we ate dinner at Black Angus, which is my favorite restaurant in town. At the end of the meal, both Cheryl and I got a free very huge chocolate chip cookie topped with ice cream. It was delicious.
After dinner, we went to our house and decorated Easter eggs. I saw a new method on Facebook I wanted to try. You put shaving cream in a pan, smooth it out, then add drops of food coloring and run a toothpick through it to make a pretty design. You then roll the egg in the mixture...
then put them in an egg carton for 20 minutes to allow them to dry.
Unfortunately, I forgot that we were supposed to wear gloves. Oops! Our fingers were died green, red, yellow, and blue. It was messy, but a lot of fun.
After 20 minutes, you take the egg and wipe the shaving cream off with paper towels.
This was our final result. It worked pretty well, but I think I should have put in more dye, combined more colors, and put less shaving cream in the pan. Oh well, next time we do this, we can make those adjustments.
