Easter & Oven Baked "hard boiled" Eggs {recipe}




Happy Easter {a day late} from the Anderson family! 

Though Ezekiel hasn't been home quite a year, this is his 2nd Easter with us. 
I tried explaining to him yesterday that Easter Sunday falls on different weeks, depending on the year. 
He just looked at me like I was an alien. We moved on quickly.




Anton really r.e.a.l.l.y wanted me to put this one in. 
{he's making a heart in case you can't tell}




sigh. mhm. sticks. 
Way more interesting than sitting still for a photo





darling girl.




I thought perhaps I could get them all smiling if I had them race. 
This is right before laith completely bit it and rolled down the hill.




Sweet family.




Imani was obviously over picture taking.




 love the sticker from church {and the chalk-covered hands}
but what's with the punch? 




I love you too, buddy.

Anton, ever the people pleaser trying to make others smile.




Can you see how t.i.n.y Ezekiel is????? 
He'd been home only a hand full of days and spoke about that many english words.

. recipe . 

I hate making hardboiled eggs, I can never get it right. How long do I put them in for? 
Wait. Add salt or baking soda? Huh?

Too much effort. I usually just buy them pre-done at Costco.

But this year I found a recipe to bake them. 
easy & effortless!




Simply place them into a mini-muffin tin for 30 minutes at 325-350 degrees.

When done, place into a bowl of iced water.

They came out perfect aside from a few brownish spots that disappeared in the water




We wrapped rubber bands around the eggs once they cooled & stuck hole enforcers on others. 
{gotta be creative when I didn't feel like running to the store}






They turned out pretty darn cute!

Notice there aren't many in our bowl? I had to cut the 4 kids off...they ate 17 hardboiled eggs. 
Yes. Seventeen. Gross.



 He is risen!!

TERESA
