Easter Peeps

I don't like peeps; I never enjoyed putting them into your Easter baskets, but put them in I did. An Easter basket without those spongy little chicks and bunnies looks empty and forlorn. I like their sweet pastel colors as they nestle in the faux straw of the basket, vying for attention as they quietly lie with the chocolate eggs. Regardless of the mess, their immediate hardening upon contact with air, and the cavities created from eating the ears and heads, I continued to place them into your baskets. I believe in tradition.
This fun recipe
makes the peeps more appealing, but still, I would never eat them.

Ha, those look awesome!
I LOVE peeps. But I won't be eating them this year, and I'll be a better woman for it. That reminds me, I better get stuff for the kids baskets today.
