I was watching CBS Sunday Morning and sipping on my coffee, surrounded by cats, and watched by my dog–an idealic, quiet morning. When what should I see but a piece about Peeps. So I went to the PeepsShow.com site (don’t spell that with only one ‘S’) to see the fine Peeps art created by Zade Ramsey.
Unfortunately, he doesn’t allow any of his art to be used anywhere, even as part of a teaser blog to get more people to his site. As an artist, I can understand that. But looking for a piece of art to accompany this blog was more difficult than I had thought it would be. So I hit the Wikipedia site for Peeps and was not disappointed.
To read more about peeps there is the http://www.geekbabe.com/peeps/ site that hasn’t been updated since 2004, but there was a lot to explore there. There you have it more about the Easter Icon Peeps than you probably wanted to know. What did Suzy and I have for Easter? Well I had part of a Godiva Easter bunny and some coffee. But I let Suzy bite the ears off my chocolate bunny first.
Oh, I think I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention Lord of the Peeps for the fantasy-minded folks out there. Enjoy.

I love Peeps. It’s my favorite Easter candy! Now I want some and I don’t have any so thank you. ;-(
You are making my mouth water!!! I love those things and I have been excellent about not buying any of them. I love the yellow ones even tho color has nothing to do with their taste.YUMMY!
You gotta see the Peep Show from the Washington Post. Also, it’s very sad that even with No Child Left Behind, so many kids can’t find Iraq on a labelled globe. Maybe we should band together to demand better.
they are so adorable! we have no Easter here.
Now they look tasty but I am not familiar with Peeps… It’s not easy being a Canuk! :)
