OT: First Easter Peeps sighting.

Veronica Moonlit <veronicaMoon...@mchsi.com>
The daay after Valentine Day they show up, the horrid little things.
They even had special Valentines peeps before Valentines. And
Christmas and Halloween Peeps too. I can't escape the things.
Everywhere I go, they taunt me. "Buy us, AFers love us" But alas, I
cannot, for I cannot tolerate the taste. Ick Ick.
I'm sorry, I have failed AF in this.
For all the Peep lovers:

An online acquaintance of mine maintains this site, and Peeps are the
official candy of her IRC channel. They were shocked when they
discovered I didn't like Peeps. "But you must love Peeps!"

You're not alone. I think they're absolutely nasty.

Gee, we haven't seen any yet but I'll keep my eyes peeled on our outing
tomorrow. Love those original yellow chicks.
Veronica, if I had only known ;–)

My local Meijer's had the Peeps, of course, but they also had Peeps
bean bags, purses, baskets, key chain/backpack decoration and some
other things. And they were very cute!

Personally I was more excited to see the Cadbury Eggs out right after
Valentines Day...I am SUCH the sucker for these...I've gotten everyone
in the house addicted to them...can't even go to CVS anymore without
bringing some home!! I always stock up after Easter too. Pathetic yes I
am pathetic.

I'm with Veronica and Scorpio00girl on this. I HATE these things but
I'm even more strange! I am morbidly compelled to buy a package or
two because they ARE the cutest things. Invariably they are thrown
away at my house. My 1 and 3 year olds certainly don't need this
abundance of sugar!
Isn't that crazy?
I'd never heard of Peeps before reading about them in this ng and they
simply weren't available here for a time. Now they're available but I
haven't seen any yet. We're just getting ready for our trip to the mall
so I'll keep my eyes open.
Throwing them out. Sheesh, they're probably cured just nicely by the
time you do ;–)

My goodness! I love these too, but haven't had any in a few years. They
give me the sugar shakes!

Oooohh Cadbury Creme Eggs are my absolute favourite! I love the
commercial that's out for them right now, with the couple searching
through a field of rabbits looking for the one that clucks like a
chicken to get more Cadbury eggs. They find bunnies that roar like a
lion, bark, etc. until they finally find the clucking one. Very cute.

By the way, Walgreen's is advertising Cadbury Eggs (along with a couple of
other types) for 3/$1.00 this week beginning today.

There is also a Easter candy that is almost like a maltball...comes in
