I am sure it would've been a nice pastel color if we'd had white eggs. <br />Beets are the best dye (which, anyone who has cut beets for cooking already knows!). The color is so vibrant, even on brown eggs.<br />Good luck; I'm sure you'll have fun!mamaTAVEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02390291198270050830noreply@blogger.com
