[Rotary] Dying your eggs...Naturally!

[Donna Schuler]

Hahaha...Liliana, does this resonate as the topic of our brief conversation
during lunch today?!  To bad I already dyed mine! It helps to know the
audience when inviting to an event, and the Mendo parents would appreciate
free range grass fed organic eggs dyed naturally. They do not care to give
their kids candy, but might ease up a little for easter. And I do not blame
them, all in moderation :) It is going to be fun.
