I have been calling my annual Easter Egg dying escapade “guerilla pysanky” for over a decade because I have all the tools but lack any of the discipline. Our household owns three manual and TWO electric kistkas (expensive wax applicators), as well as bricks of bourgeois beeswax and specialized trays. It doesn’t matter. I always want immediate gratification and waiting to etch teeny tiny lines and dots is torturous. I’d rather skip to the end. My eggs only take five or so minutes.
Plus… I like to eat them (so we always use food safe colours).
