In bowl, mix sugar, salt, yeast, and 1 cup flour.  Heat butter and milk
until very warm(125F.).  With mixer at low speed, beat liquid into dry
ingredients.  At medium, beat 2 minutes.  Beat in 2 eggs, 1 egg white, and
3/4 cup flour; beat 2 minutes. Stir in lemon peel and 1 1/4 cups flour.
On floured surface, knead dough about 5 minutes, working in about 1/2 cup
flour; place in greased bowl, turning to grease top.  Cover; let rise in
warm place until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
Meanwhile, dye 6 eggs your favorite colors, following label directions from
Easter-egg coloring kit, but do not hard-cook eggs; set aside.
Punch down dough; turn onto floured surface; cover for 25 minutes.
Grease large cookie sheet.  Cut dough in half; form each half into a
30-inch long rope. On cookie sheet, twist ropes together to form ring,
leaving holes for 5 eggs. Cover; let rise until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours
Preheat oven to 350F.  Insert raw, colored eggs into holes in twist; place
1 egg in center. In cup, beat egg yolk with water; use to brush dough. Bake
30 minutes or until golden. Cool on wire rack. Yields 1 loaf.
