It's that time of year again, PEEPS are at Target!!!

For those of you who love the little marshmallow bunnies and chickens, you don't have to resort to stealing them out of your children's Easter baskets. You can buy your own and Target has lots of them out now.

RacerX, you can probably make some brownie points with your wife if you take her a peep present. Just a thought grinning smiley

They are NOT marshmallows.

They are evil.

There's an acrid rotting-flesh taste to them that's a total gross-out for me.

I never had them as a kid, but I've recently been introduced to Peep-Jousting and was "awarded" several for my victorious purple chick.

Then I ate one. Yech!

No wonder they feed those things to frat pledges.

no the brownie points would be having the bathtub clean, and the chocolate fountain running with a stack of peeps next to it in the bathroom on the toilet seat lid for when she comes home from a training session.

Hmmm, peeps in the bath, I hadn't thought about that.

And MacMagus, it seems that people either love or hate them, I've always been in the former category. Brightly colored sugar covered marshmallows-yum! B)

Didn't you see the snowman peeps at Christmas? Just as nasty as the Easter version. One bite, instant stomach ache. Seriously.

I actually have some Valentine's heart peeps "aging" in the pantry. And they were bought on clearance, which makes them even tastier. grinning smiley

They are good when they get crunchy. Ask RacerX, his wife likes them that way, too.

Just Born, birthplace of Peeps, is one town over.

i liked 'em as a kid, but not any more. if i'm going to eat massive sugar-bombs, there's better candy than Peeps.

for one: Atomic Fire Balls

Hey, I belong to the official Peeps Fan Club and have a card to prove it!
I love them-- but only the yellow bunnies and chicks. The Halloween, Christmas and Valentine peeps taste nasty to me, too.
I am planning a photo essay for summer, starring yellow chick peeps photographed in different recognizable places in my hometown. "Peeps in Puyallup" is sure to be a hit with a few of my friends. The "stars" may be too grimed to eat afterward... but I bet the local squirrels will eat them.

Peeps ARE evil!

And I love 'em! I hate them for that.

(Yes, ambivalence is my homage and contribution to bi-polar disorder.)

Peeps snowmen? I did not know that.

I NEED to get to Target to get a Nokia car charger but have yet to do so. But *this* will absolutely get me there tomorrow.

rg, I love/hate you for telling me this.

Oh, and for the snowman thing, too.

Are there Halloween Peeps?






I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.

I thought they also had black witches on broomsticks for halloween.

And that 100 peep challenge is no joke, I had friends in High school that tried it, the best was like 50 peeps I think, followed by vomiting.

For Halloween, since Rammie wants to know, they had Ghosts, and Cats, cocoa and black. They also had the rare and hard to find, new last year, are you ready, filled orange pumpkins. They were filled with a chocolate cream stuff. I had to go to several stores to find them. They were pretty good, but I think I like the original Peeps best. They also had regular unfilled pumpkins, too.

Here are two links for the other fans out there. I would never have thought Rammie was a Peeps fan, I knew I liked you for some reason. smiling smiley

Now peeps are something Cheney should be aiming at instead of the flight-handicapped attorney he was hunting.

Wait a sec...
