She did it wrong - she should have tied those onion skins tight to the eggs - that would have made for a variegated brown/yellow, much more interesting than just plain br.. I mean amber. BTW red cabbage being used in the same way gives blue.
Do you know how Rednecks weigh a pig? They put a plank on top of a fence straddling it, They put a pig on one side and rocks on the other until it balances… then estimate the weight of the rocks.

My Polish grandmother did the onion-skin thing (boring) and also red beets for a really nice magenta color. Never knew about the red cabbage.
But where do these people live that they have to run all over town to find white eggs?

Dying is the easy part of Lithuanian Easter Eggs–they are then incised with patterns like these
Romanians have similar traditions
