Easter =)
It's Easter today so we play with the eggs! I won three times (one against little brother, grandma and dad) and lost once to mom >D Oh well :D
Since I really liked how the eggs came out (we painted them on Saturday according to tradition) ^_^

I have 2 questions tho-why does the first egg have to be red? And.. Uhm...are they blown out and hollowed, then filled with confetti? Or is the actual egg-stuff in there? You said you break it open in a year and if there's still stuff in it...does the egg stay in the house, or is it kept outside? Or?
I'm sorry, i'm probably asking a stupid question there, and have missed something obvious...just curious, i promise!

The first egg is supposed to be read because under Jesus' crest eggs were placed and they got red because of his blood that dripped on them, thus the first egg is red, like his blood :)
No fillings or stuff. There are hollowed eggs but we use them for decoration only. We boil the eggs and then simply color them. Nothing more, nothing less :P The first egg is kept inside the house (we keep ours on shelf in the living room). ^_^
The eggs are boiled because we uhh, not sure how to translate - 'fight' is not the right word. We hit two eggs at each other (not trowing them) and who evers egg survives, he's the victor. :D Though this year the eggs came out really pretty and it was a pity when we broke them >P
