PEEP WATCH 2008 DAY SEVENTY-ELEVENTH
And for those of you with so LITTLE FAITH...no I have not eaten the peeps.
#18. Tweek the peeps nose. It should break of very easily. Now he has nothing to keep his glasses from sliding off. Of course...his earlessness was already a problem so this peep so he is a devoted contact wearer.
#19. You should be able to bend the peeps tail and it will not move back into place. The sugar should be nice and crumbly.
#20. Take a bite. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM peep heaven!! Do you remember when you were little and could buy individual bubble gum for a penny? I think it must cost 50 cents or something now but I digress. Remember its texture? Its wonderful chewiness?? That is EXACTLY how your peep should feel in your mouth! Now you know you have arrived at PEEP PERFECTION!
21. Always remember. Peeps have their own built in safety device much like the bank bags that the tellers will give to robbers. They leave their mark.
In compiling this riveting piece of journalism, I told Rach that I have gotten peep sugar on the floor of my office. Every time my chair would run across the sugar it would make a crunchy sound. Rach said it was like running over little peep bones. ~snickers~
And I am sorry about not getting the video up on the microwave experiment. My technical assistance got a better deal on vacation sites other than my home for spring vacation and he dumped me. I hope he does not get in a video entitled *Learners Permits Gone WILD*.

ReplyDelete*snickering*
I am such an un-believer, and am leaving a comment under my horrible cloak of shame. Sorry to have ever doubted your peep-ocity.
ReplyDelete(and oh yeah I am so in for the surprise.)
Peep bones and "Learners Permits Gone Wild" - too funny! I'm feeling pretty lucky with the giveaway, 'cause I won one of the raffle prizes at the Catholic church's St. Patty's dinner.
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know just exactly how long the shelf life of a PEEP is ??
ReplyDeleteBek
Mindy's been walking around the office all morning, saying things like: "Ith mah tonje still bue?"
ReplyDeleteWhat - what - what are you giving away???? And will I want it? And if so, what's to keep me from just goin' over there and takin' it??? Not yer blue tongue, that's for sure!
Peep Bones!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't bought my bunnies yet, but I'm headed that way.
Put me in the big ole bag of names for the super secret give a way!!!
I've still got your "something" to mail to you, just haven't gotten off mah butt to do so........
I'm so tired of the rain.
Man, I have missed this whole Peepin' series. Where I been!?
ReplyDeleteI have never never bought or eaten any Peeps. Don't know why. Just ... scared of things those colors? But I had a friend in grad school (she was Jewish FWIW) who had a long standing tradition of buying up the leftover Easter peeps and leaving them out like you do.
Ah, you make me miss her. Glad I know you and your Peep bones now!
You gotta show us Nukin-Peeps.
ReplyDeletePeep bones? That is peepy creepy!
ReplyDeleteAnd I confess I was one of those who thought the peeps had gone to a better place... that they had disapperated... that someone had taken his learner's permit in hand and, as your co-peepetrator, made them go far, far away.
I hang my head. I comment with guilt. Or is that gilt?
But first, I must tell you. The Reedy Girl, The Harpist and I are doing our own Peep-periment. The packages are poked... we are waiting... waiting... waiting...
Deb
and if I comment more than once, does that increase my chances?
ReplyDeletedoes it?
Peep Bones!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love it, love it!!!!!!
Thanks for your inspiring messages and advice on Peeps.
We ahve come a long way since I was a kid some uh....(clearing throat) 30-somehting years ago!
Used to just be yellow chicks, now all colors, variety of animals and other things and they spill over into all seasons ( I had Peep reindeer with bits of Pepermint at Christmas). I held off a while a tried to be a tradtionalist, but the curislty go the best of me and I broke down and bought "out of season" Peeps!
I'm so ashamed!!!!!!!!
Oh and they NOW HAVE sugar free Peeps! I mean like, WTF?
ReplyDeleteKnock, knock!!!!!
Peeps are MADE of Sugar, so Sugar Free Peeps are like not Peeps.
WTF= What the Fudge??? 'kay?????
Has Rach been cemetary blogging on the peep bones in the office? maybe a sweeping up is in order for a commital of the "ashes" - maybe in a tiny little urn...
ReplyDeleteI was going to leave a comment anyway...
ReplyDeleteI love these peep pictures!
So would you say your tongue is now a blue tint or shade? And did you notice, your is very short and round? Wacky.
ReplyDelete"peep bones" LOL
ReplyDeleteI love the peep posts... My daughter (12) hasn't gotten the idea that peeps are better when they have had time to mature. I have a peep from 2005 (still in it's little egg). I think it matured a little too much and is now mummified and has become a science experiment which I am not sure what to call... ideas would be appreciated. I will have to take a picture on Easter (since that is the day this whole experiment started) and let everyone know how it looks.
ReplyDeleteI am finally back! For more entries in the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteSo many Peeple have entered. I sure hope I have a chance to win. I will have to come back and Peep some more.
(ducking from tomatoes thrown at my head)
Oh, and Sugar Free Peeps?? I would make a comment about how wrong this sounds, but one of my son's friends was just diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes and those would be nice for him.
ReplyDeleteI will remember your Peeps investigation and QG's peep pole dancing as the antidote to a very full Lent 2008.
ReplyDeleteEating "stale" peeps is MindyGoneWild!
Enter me in the contest. I want to win!
I don't know, Rach, the blue tongue would probably stop me.
ReplyDeleteI saw some of the before-mentioned red peeps at the store -- they creeped me out! Where do peeps get their contact lenses anyway? I would think finding them that small would be a hard thing to do...
ReplyDeleteshamelessly commenting in hopes of winning.... (and if this comment shows up 74 times, blogger is being stupid and making me put in the secret code over and over and over again. Maybe if they would use a font I could read...)
you guys are hilarious. i'm making my peep run this weekend. i love gifties, enter me to win
ReplyDeleteI love the taste of Peeps. I like the blue ones best.
ReplyDeleteI want to enter the contest too. If it's a real girlie thing, then mom gets it.
Wonderboy,
Son of PG
....I apparently have no shame when it comes to contests.
ReplyDeleteI'm just chiming in again for the giveaway. :)
ReplyDeleteNow you're scaring ME!
ReplyDeleteAm I really the only one disturbed by that poor beakless, tailless Peep?
Mindy - the mummified peep is posted on my blog... I think I should win since my peep is probably the oldest peep around :)
ReplyDeletePeeps are just gross. They deserve to have their little bones crushed before they proliferate and take over the world.
ReplyDeleteAnd some people would do anything to get themselves a ton of comments, huh?
Do peeps like snowboarding? Sure looks like it!
ReplyDeletePS word verification tkdvgrut which sounds like the noise you made spitting out that sugar free one! (what are you going to do with the other two? Nah don't answer. Poor Rach!
