happy peep-er

My brother was doing something to my blog, or something weird happened with his computer, so that’s why things were wonky around here. His computer also ate the last post about the dead pound cake. Oh well. The dead pound cake post is back from the dead!
Anyway, for my Japanese lesson today, I took my “teachers” (the two Japanese exchange students) to Target. I learned how to say “garbage bag” in Japanese. I also had to tone down my excitement when I spotted the wall o’ Peep paraphernalia. I just got these two items:

The pen is squishy! And the chocolate egg, in case you can’t tell, contains a RED Peep.

    I LOVE PEEPS!!! Their wonderful squishy, sugary goodness! Which makes it difficult this time of year, because I’ve cut out refined sugar. Oh well, I guess I’ll have to ignore my health resolutions for just a little while. Have you ever tried making peep-y marshmallow-y things? I may have to dig out that recipe from Martha Stewart and give these a try…

    It’s time again for chocolate covered peeps. They are yummy but honestly all the sugar causes me to go a little bit crazy.

    Peeps! Glorious Peeps! Second only to Cadburry Eggs…(the original of course)

    Peeps are the best. I just picked up some of the special-edition target red ones, too!

    Peeps make the best s’mores! The sanding sugar carmalizes slightly and adds an interesting slightly crunchy texture.

    Peeps are YUMMY. I forgot about Easter candy! Where has my mind gone?

  12. Deborah says:

    Yum, the toxic waste candy!

    Sorry! I didn’t mean to comment twice. 😮

    The Peep egg kind of scares me, in a bad way…
    The pen on the other hand is quite adorable. I’d guess Japanese exchange students would love big ‘ol American Target.

    Oh my gosh! Thank you so much for the Target connection. I went last night and hit the mother load. I am a peeps addict. I even have an oil painting titled “Peeps In Blue.” It is a painting of a peeps package. LOVE IT!
    Thanks for the info!!
