I'm totally fed up!
The green is really kind of a puky lime green margarita barf color

the purple is pink

the pink is kind of salmonish, but if you mix it with anything it immediately turns brown

the blue is gorgeous

the orange and the yellow are okay, but nobody likes those colors anyway

I've had it. How am I supposed to explain to my children that our civilization can turn entire countries into rubble, but we can't make a decent green dye, much less a purple?

7. what will I do with the eggs.
I followed the directions exactly in the Better Homes and Gardens cookbook and the eggs suck. The shells stick to the whites something awful.

I accidentally dropped one of the eggs, so I gave it to my dog on his food and it was impossible to peel. I'm really a terrific cook, but apparently I can't hard boil an egg.

Sheesh!

Fed up, I tell you!

I'll mail you the orange ones.

6. If you run out of pills...
Edited on Sat Apr-15-06 11:14 PM by madeline_con
you can use vinegar and egular old food color. Good luck :hi:


EDIT: I went to change the word "egular", and thought it worked o.k. :)
