Peeps, Easter Eggs, and Bunnies
Wednesday, 04.04.07 @ 12:03AM
Another candy holiday is upon us, but its the last of the candy holidays before the heat of summer makes us turn to ice cream instead. And ice cream doesn’t roll under the couch. Meanwhile, we’ve been invaded by Peeps! The purpose of Peeps is to to fill out an Easter basket, but some people like to eat them. And for those who don’t eat them, there are plenty of uses for Peeps. Some folks perform experiments on Peeps and post them on the internet, like this guy who soaked his in chocolate milk, and these folks, who try to destroy them.
Other folks use them for art. Tiny chicks and bunnies can be used to illustrate events and stories. I posted quite of few of the more imaginative Peep scenarios at Mental Floss. In addition, check out The Princess Peep, A production of The Princess Bride, performed by bunny-shaped Peeps. Also see this set of Peep plays. And for my friends at JTR Forums, here’s Jack the Peeper.
You can also travel with Peeps, watch them dance, and play games about them, like Peeps in Outer Space
! Of course, there’s always the classic Peep Jousting.
Some folks are afraid of Peeps. Read Peeps: Harbingers of Doom for the human race?

All I Need to Know About Life
I Learned from the Easter Bunny
Don't put all of your eggs in one basket.
Walk softly and carry a big carrot.
Everyone needs a friend who is all ears.
There's no such thing as too much candy.
All work and no play can make you a basket case.
A cute little tail attracts a lot of attention.
Everyone is entitled to a bad hare day.
Let happy thoughts multiply like rabbits.
Some body parts should be floppy.
Keep your paws off other people's jellybeans.
The grass is always greener in someone else's basket.
An Easter bonnet can tame even the wildest hare.
To show your true colors you have to come out of your shell.
The best things in life are still sweet and gooey!
Cute baby sheep.
Cute baby bunny.
The Easter Bunny Rap.
At this interactive site, you can play with Fred the bunny! But it’s not what you might think. Please check it out yourself before you show the kids. (via Innings)
Odd European Easter Customs. Nothing really odder than hanging plastic eggs from a tree, like they do here.

Thought for today: A true friend is someone who thinks you are a good egg even though they know you are slightly cracked.

Peeps. They have never seemed appealing. Unless it is Samuel Pepys (pronounced peeps). He might be called the original diarist and therefore perhaps the father of blogging.
Happy Easter.
That "Peeps Joust" was hilarious!
Now, for my favorite Easter joke...
The Monday after Easter, I opened my refrigerator to find a bunny with a basket, just sitting there.
"What the hell are YOU doing in here?"
"This is a Westinghouse, wight? Well, I'm just westing."
I had no idea that Peeps was a real term..maybe it's because up here in our glacial paradise, Easter is sometimes celebrated during a Blizzard and Good Friday is Good mainly because it is a Holiday..it should really be called TGIGF.
Great work and congratulations once again on your nomination and consistently amazing Blog.
You are awesome.
