Anyone Remember PAAS, The Easter Egg Coloring Kit?
I remember them, but I'll let Patton Oswalt take you back:

1. Of course, And PAAS is still around.
My friend and I always laugh about it when we see it in the stores. I'll have to send him this clip; it's a riot and it reflects our comments about PAAS when we're laughing about it. I've never heard of this guy, Patton Oswalt, so I read his bio and saw that he voiced Remy in "Rattatouile," which I loved.

3. He used to be on "The King of Queens" once in a while.
I've seen him do stand up. Quite funny.

2. Yeah, and I remember the odor of vinegar.
Did you use that in the dye?

15. Vinegar, Lemon, Water
Use vinegar for "ultra-vibrant" color, lemon for "traditional" color and water for pastels.

4. I've got some on my counter right now, right next to a bottle of vinegar.
When my son gets home from the swimming pool, he and my daughter will dunk some eggs.

7. As did I. I made some lovely graffito styled eggs with the crayon (resistance)
and keeping the eggs in the dye a LOBG time. I almost hate to break them now!

16. I haven't colored Easter eggs in years, but next year there will be
a grandchild old enough to hunt for eggs.

They turned out exactly the same.

12. I haven't colored eggs in a long time.
I remember it being messy.


We use plastic eggs, reuse them every year.

14. totally - that's what easter was all about
.... however, there was the time when I was about 4 or 5 that I dumped a cup of the dye over a neighbour girl's head. I don't know why. Maybe just to see what it would do to a person. Maybe I had my first crush. Oh well. I still feel pretty bad about it.

21. Dumping the Dye!
My soon-to-be four-year-old dumped two cups of dye on the floor deliberately right in front of me as I was telling him not to do it. I gave him his biggest time-out (ten minutes) ever! I guess it's just a four-year-old boy thing to do.

Now, how do I get all this dye off of his hands?!
