Simple Deviled Eggs

GINA If you are having an Easter-egg hunt, you might as well have deviled eggs. I remember asking my great-great-grandmother, “Why do they call them devil eggs?” And she replied, “Because if you eat too many, the devil will show up!” To this day, I have never understood that saying, but I miss all those little pearls of wisdom that my mom and grandmother used to share. The two of them were magic together, and they always kept us guessing. Pat had a similar experience: as a child, he always wondered how his mother got the insides of the hard-boiled egg out, made a delicious egg mixture, then put it back in! Deviled eggs are easy and even fun to make with the kids. Here, once again, I do my thing as the “Spice Fairy” with a magic sprinkling of black and red pepper, which gives this dish just the right amount of kick.
