Cascarones =Confetti Egg Fun!

You sneak up behind an unknowing friend, 
ammunition in hand,
then to their suprise,
the CRACK! of an eggshell on their head,
and a rainshower of confetti.
What could be more fun?

For several years, I have made cascarones, or confetti filled eggs, for different celebrations. 
They are really easy to make.

Hollow out one end of an egg (easier than you would think).
Just think of the small children you can attack.
Wash out the egg and let it dry.
See how quickly the kids catch on?
 Dye and Decorate the egg.

Or paint a MJ image on it.  You know, do your thing.
Consider being an overachiever like Gracie's Eggies (source)
Fill it with confetti.  Or birdseed.  Or money.  It would be nice to be showered with money.
Look at his joy!  And our thrilled kids!  Attacking Mom is fun!
Cut a small piece of tissue paper and glue it over the hole.
Then sneak up behind someone and SMASH it on their head!
Or just buy some at the store.  My sis found them for $0.10 a dozen after Easter last year!
