"Today: No PAAS, no problem. Corynne Pless shares a handy recipe so that any inky vegetable can be used to dye Easter Eggs. Just check your crisper drawer to get started.
Whether you’re dedicated to the all-natural lifestyle or you merely forgot to pick up food dye from the store, using vegetables is an easy and inexpensive way of tackling the age-old tradition of dying Easter eggs. Using just vinegar, water, and vegetables, your eggs will soak up earthy jewel tones overnight. Purple cabbage—that often lone soldier of the crisper drawer—makes eggshells an especially gorgeous blue-green, and you can use Washi tape and lace scraps to create natural designs on them."

I've always wanted to try this out. No idea if I'll have time this weekend, but I'm clipping it to my craft ideas in Evernote in case I want to give it a go next year.
