    Hi Jenna, The “egg dying” did take an explantation, how cute for such a cutie. Your table is beautiful, I love all the moss. I love moss! Salads sound delish…………

    Awww I love how kid’s think, Jenna! I’ll bet the dying of eggs was fun with your cutie pie.
    I think I’ll go for salad, too…no bird’s nest soup for me! Your table looks so pretty, and I have that same birdie that’s holding the blue egg.
    Happy Easter blessings, Jenna!
