Perfect Hard Boiled Eggs
Cover the eggs with cold water, bring to a boil, cook 2 to 3 minutes, then turn heat off and let sit for about 20 minutes. Put in cold water, then store in the fridge.
-I have also found if you roll them around in your saucepan a few times before the water reaches a boil, it will put the yokes in a good place.
On another note, I am 95% done with all my birthday party projects. I have to make a couple things today, then the rest will be done when I get back from the Easter holiday. Here is one of the projects that got finished up this week......
My dot garland. I love it. I found this cute idea over at the Purl Bee. This garland was perfect for me for a couple reasons. First, EASY project for a non sewer like myself, you sew a line down the middle of the dots with invisible thread. So even if you can't sew in a straight line, which I can't, no one will know, because the thread is invisible. woo woo! Second, it is great because it is super cheap! My budget for this extravaganza is super small, so using some felt I already had, and invisible thread, dirt cheap. I even ended up buying 2 sheets of felt, it cost me a whopping $.50.

Have I told you my theme for my son's birthday? I can't remember if I have or if I am keeping it a secret. Any guesses with the color scheme from the garland?
Now I want an egg salad sandwich for lunch. Hah.
ReplyDeleteWe must be on the same wavelength - I totally have a felt dot garland hanging above the baby's crib in the nursery! I'll have to take a picture and show you. I have no guesses for your party theme based on the garland though ... whatever it is, I'm sure it will be awesome. I'm excited to see what you've come up with. And I can't believe he's a year old already!
