I'm thinking of wearing this to Easter services...what do you all think?

df ~ oh, that is a great one!

bb ~ beautiful!
lol!!!

They are total sugar overkill, but they are so worth it! YUM-O!

I used to really like that they were only out once a year near Easter, but now they have peeps for just about every holiday - Valentine's Day, July 4th, Halloween, Christmas - one for every season, actually!

Have fun peeps!

(oh, and unless you want to be serenaded by carnival-type music, turn the sound down!)

I found the golden bunny at the store. I didn't buy it though. Made me smile, however, knowing that there are some of my friends who like them.

Peepfrost- and you have time to change your mind about peeps! After that point, DF may well be calling you "Permapeep!" They are peep-licious!

PS, I think your name is cool- literally and figuratively

I can't do peeps myself. Am I bad? Just convinced H that we need to go by my Mini Eggs and Creme Eggs tonight, so I'm sure to get some and won't miss out like last year. Lovey hubby FTW!

PS - If I get called YakuPeepu or something, I may die laughing.

On it!!! Where is the running smiley when I need it.....

No Mini Eggs. Did they stop making them or something? Complete emotional destabilization in 3...2...1...

I don't know how to download pictures onto here- otherwise I'd play!

frosty ~ I love it!!! totally made me giggle. Post away!!!

p.s. for some reason, I find the pic of the two chocolate bunnies super funny, and my fav. I needed the smile today. Thanks everyone.

DF: OMG, that is me with chocolate too! Break out the sour patch watermelons or kids or fruits and I could eat those all day!

Frosty: I love that emoticon!!

Frosty - that's awesome! Where did you find it?! Nothing like jumping into a good piece of chocolate.... Chocolate covered peeps..... mmmmmmmm.....

I just made the pic of the two chocolate bunnies my Facebook profile picture. I can't stop laughing!

hey permafrost ~ how do you upload photos as a response on a thread? I was able to do it when I started the thread, but now, when I try to reply, the option doesn't come up. Hmm... What am I missing?

ok here goes...

first the cute:

*edited* darn didn't work. gonna have to come back and try again later.

thanks!

Oh, my computer geeks- I mean peeps- I can't figure out what the heck you are talking about...
How I wish to upload a picture. If I could find a crying smiley somewhere, I would put it here: :-(

Jane- that is hysterical. I love it. I really really love it.

I'm so sick of where I live.... these are my peeps.

Frosty!!! IT WORKED!!! oh, joy!

lol ~ good one!!!

Hold on a second there... are you tellin' me that there are peep flavored freeze pops? I LOVE freeze pops, and peep flavored? Heaven.

BTW - the Trojan Easter bunny comic? Priceless!

Df- so glad you are posting and safe- for you..

The bunny dance!!!





~ a sleepy jd

bb & df ~ those pics totally made me smile! so cute!

Love my kitties, but today it was my adorable daughter making me laugh. She is kind of, sort of, half-heartedly potty training right now. She went in her drawer, pulled out some Hello Kitty panties, put them on her head like a beanie, with one of her eyes visible through one of the leg holes, and ran around the house jumping and laughing. Love my kid!!!

Lol love this thread. Boy you guys in the States have such a great choice of fantastic sounding goodies, I am envious .

Ha ha but bet you’ve never heard of peanut slabs, pinky bars or chocolate pineapple lumps though.

LL

LL ~ good to see you! I haven't ever heard of those - googled to find out. They sound yummy! Pineapple lumps? like here: http://www.sanza.co.uk/apps/shop/product.asp?pId=4509 ? mmmmm.... now I'm off to google what pinky bars are

G'day JD lol! Thanks for the welcome. My god you found them, pineapple lumps my all time favourite lolly sorry candy in the world. I was just back in NZ recently and literally couldn't stop eating the damn things until I'd finished the bag. And then started on the next one urgh sick making. And they were SUPPOSED to go in my suitcase to bring back home. Probably just as well you can't get them over here.

LL

LL!!!! ((((((LL)))))))

LL!! ((LL)))

BB!!!!!!!!!!!! ((((((((( Beebs )))))))))))

LL

Edit: Or should that be ((((((((( Peeeeeeps ))))))))

Second edit: Are all Peeps chicken shaped and is that because they are Easter candy? Do you get Christmas Peeps as well? I suppose I should go and google them shouldn't I?

permafrost ~ oh yum! those look simply amazing! They look like they are right out of Gourmet Magazine. I have the same problem, and being a single gal, I'm always giving away my more successful "baking attempts" to neighbors and the like. Too many fun threads? never! (imho)

I had a dream about peep ice cream last night. I googled to see if it existed... and found this youtube video: Vanilla Peep Peep Baby

Yes, anytime of the year, (not just before Easter), it's always peepertime. hehe...

yesterday, I had black rasberry frozen yogurt with a peep on it. It was wonderful!

DF ~ I love the story about your kitty. Just made me smile

Yaku ~ your daughter sounds simply delightful! I love that spontaneous silliness little kids have.

I got dark chocolate Mini Eggs yesterday. H said I made an orgasmic noise when I saw that he bought them for me...and then I asked, "Wait, did they have milk chocolate ones there too? Um, I mean, thanks, sweetie!" I wanted some of each.

DF ~ lol! I just spit out the water I was drinking because that vid was so funny. I have no idea why I find it so funny... I just do... much appreciated.

Ha ha DF that vid just freaked my cat out, he couldn't work out where the sound was coming from. LOVE your sense of humour, keep it up!

By the way, just thought of another candy thingie that nobody in the world except three (or is it four now) million NZers know about - hokey pokey icecream.

LL

Edit: Here's a link to save JD from having to google it

http://webcache.googleusercont...rce=www.google.co.uk

Edit edit: Arrrghh no wonder the Tip Top stuff tasted crap when I was over there, THEY'VE CHANGED THE RECIPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Has to be Streets then.

toffee + ice cream?! yum!!!

Well PF, you could always try out what they did in one of the comics a few pages back... let them float in the public toilet and see what happens!

please excuse this interruption to the thread to interject a moment of cuteness

thanks for humoring me. Now you may return to your normally scheduled thread conversation.

Frosty, I want that little bunny right now. Please. I have been craving a little snuggle, and bunny looks like it'd be a good snuggle buddy for a little while. Heck, if it stays that small and cute, I'll keep it forever!

PF ~ aw... that bunny totally made me smile!!!

Didn't know there was a peeps contest! Check out the winners:

http://shine.yahoo.com/channel...74406/#photoViewer=1

There is a new candy out this year called "Peepsters". It is a marshmallow-flavored filling (not soft, actually fairly firm, like a truffle filling) coated with silky milk chocolate. They are wonderful. I raided the Easter Bunny's secret stash the other night and finished off the entire bag. So my girls will still get lots of candy...but the Peepsters are history.

SG

....Aw why don't we have them over here? Will swap you something for them, cos we're really missing out

starfishy

Starfishy...buddy...I wonder if Shrinklady could create a "Virtual Drop Off" portal so I could get these to you. Probably a bit much, though. I can't even imagine the bandwidth that would be involved.

SG

Another link for you all - this is hilarious!

http://www.buzzfeed.com/melism...marshmallow-peep-art

And one more...

http://www.washingtonpost.com/...r02-69859/index.html

SG, thanks....in the meanwhile I shall just enjoy the banter and imagine them

starfish

Percy pigs? hmm....

*jane curiously googles "percy pigs" *

like these?

Yes Jane, ...those, well done for finding them!!!! Perfect for cheering you up is a percy pig

Frosty, sort of, well maybe not exactly.....we have them as snakes, really sour ones too
And yes, kinder chocolate too in little eggs with toys in or (far better as in your pickkie) in strips of chocolate.

......but I still want to try peeps

starfishy

aw, perky pigs look too cute to eat!

I must pass the link below of a peeps art show in the Washington Post. Seriously amazing what people did with Peeps!

many of the photos are amazing works done of peeps in children's book images - and they are so neat that it makes me want to go play with peeps instead of eat them. go fig.

Ooooo and I love those little cadbury mini eggs with the thin candy shell and the chocolate inside - yum......well any sort of chocolate is good, especially on Easter Sunday
