Confetti Eggs






Down here in Texas there is a tradition at Easter of confetti eggs. We didn't really know what they were all about, but you see them everywhere, as people sell them by the roadside. Today I had the opportunity to make my own, and the kids got to "smash" them. After you hollow out the egg and clean it you paint and decorate it, fill it with confetti, and then glue tissue paper over the end. You are supposed to smash it on your head. We don't really get why they do it, but the girls thought it was fun.

Looks like lots of fun. I have never heard of that. You will have to tell me how you did it. Hey, is that the grill I see in the background? Nobody got hurt did they?
