We like dying and eating eggs for Easter and I'm starting a collection for later reference:

Maybe you already saw this other post of mine about colored eggs, but just in case:

It's not a recipe, but there is a pretty picture.
Happy Easter!
I'm always amazed at who finds these posts on my supplementary blog. Thank you for the link; I've added it above.
Interestingly enough, as an adopted child of second generations of Armenians and Norwegians, we had annual "egg fights" on my mother's side as you described in your post. Her dad used a rubber egg one year for the egg cracking contest, in addition to his standard protective egg-holding grip - no one could beat him. My father was not pleased about the rubber egg and the following year he procured for us kids enormous goose eggs to use against Grandpa. I'm sure there was more to the story, but us kids were thrilled to finally beat Grandpa at his game.
A few years later, my folks decided to eschew tradition by not serving lamb and calling the day Resurrection Sunday with no Easter baskets. As a kid, this was a bit of a disappointment.
