– said Brittanie Pyper, a blogger and influencer who prepared the instructions for painting potatoes, in an interview with the Axios portal.
At first I saw these memes and I laughed it was ridiculous. But after a while I thought: why not? Who cares if we dye our eggs or opt for potatoes because of the high cost? We will still have fun and will be remembered
