July27

Oh where to start.  I guess the best place would be with the  eggs I have been making, they are called Pysanky's plural or Pysanka singular.  The are a Ukrainian art of decorating Easter Eggs with traditional Ukrainian folk art  designs buy applying bees wax and dyes in multiple layers.

This started with me going to a festive with my mother and was blown away by their beauty. I had never seen anything like, I just had to know how to do it  The colors, intricate patterns, and the were so delicate.  They had eggs ranged from Bluebird to Ostrich, I stills can't get over the intricate patterns on some of the eggs. I have become obsessed with making them.  I took a class that was offered and thus was born a monsters. a dozen eggs go down the drain a week just so I can have the shells.  

I told Jerrell I need chickens so I could get thicker shells,  I even figured out how I might do it so the HOA didn't know.  He just shakes his head. (thinking I married a crazy women)
