Egg Blowers
Julie came over Saturday and we headed out to Michael’s crafts to buy all the stuff we needed to make the Easter trees. We ran into a serious problem with the eggs as Michaels didn’t have any craft ones – so we decided to just blow out regular eggs and paint them.
It’s actually quite an easy process. You poke a tiny hole in one end with a tack. On the other end you make a bigger hole – about the size of corn kernal. You take a pin or an opened paperclip and you stir the inside up to crack the yolk — and then you blow as hard as you can on the tiny hole end. This, in and of itself, makes a mighty farting noise as you are attempting to blow through a hole this size ——-> .
Out of the larger hole end comes rushing/gushing/slurping egg. It makes the most realistic diarrhea-sound – you will be amazed. We needed 20 of them so we giggled and dry-heaved our way through almost 2 dozen of them. I took a picture of Julie doing it. She took a picture of me. We both laughed at Peter when he tried and broke his egg all over the place….
Julie looked at me, completely amazed.
“This is the grossest craft I’ve ever done!”
“Yes!” I said… “Yes, it is.”
