Beautiful eggs
Not what you expected to see with that headline, is it? These are the most naturally-gorgeous eggs I've ever seen. I brought them over to the family party for decorating yesterday, and I don't think I even got the chance to show them off. We ran out of time for decorating but admired the eggs that were already there from over a decade of tradition.
White eggs never offer such a variety of tones, speckles or spots. It makes buying brown ones that much more gratifying. I've only ever decorated white eggs, although in later years I ended up with ones stamped with "BORN 3" in either pink or blue. Not exactly the blank canvas I had in mind. ;)
I hope everyone had a Happy Easter!

Happy belated Easter!
Thank you!
Sorry it got so hectic that we didn’t get to see your eggs, or decorate them - they are beautiful!
They’re so lovely I didn’t entirely want to decorate them. If I’d had supplies here I might have done it… maybe I’ll blow a few out and keep them as they are! (Decorate next year?)
