Peeps and a non-Curlygirl post!

Because I was so frightened by crabby cousin, I submit to you a new post, introducing the world of peeps. They are the delightful and delicious (yet of mysterious origin and composition) treats of Easter. As with many new world marvels, they have been bastardized by mass marketers, trying to make them appropriate for any holiday, such as orange pumpkin-shaped peeps, or white ghosts, etc. However, as the name implies, the only true original is the beautiful yellow, chick-shape peeps!!! And the true 5x4 row/column layout of the box o' peeps is unmistakable. Some like them soft and chewy and fresh out of the box. The sound of the cellophone breaking open, a siren's song bidding one to gluttony. Others prefer to open the package and give them a day or two to be exposed and to harden and become oddly like styrofoam. I fall into the first group, and I have no idea why people prefer them the second way! I believe there is pending legislation to outlaw this, as it is simply so wrong.
The site linked to this post (which Curlygirl did not have to provide) details several important medical studies on these tasty little critters. So a great big shout out for me peeps - PEEEP!
(Wow! That actually made me uneasy!)

My sign is the Crab. Can you tell?

Ok girls, I have posted the last FOUR entries on this blog. What's up with that?

I'm really looking forward to the birthday celebration and SO excited that Cuz is joining us! Other Sister made dinner reservations for 8 p.m. I wonder how early we can go to the hotel. Cuz, I hope you're planning to leave your house in the morning -- then we have the whole day! Woo hoo!

Um, what is up with Ann Coulter. I do believe she is SATAN! I've never heard anyone so mean (well except for the whole Fox News Network and the religious right, but you know what I mean.)

And somebody smashed a beer bottle in our driveway the other night. Isn't that rude?!?! Dad drove the car over it and Owain and I walked over it before we realized it was there. Thoughtless drunken neighbor kids. Hrmf!!

Wow, except for the birthday comment, I sound a little out of sorts. Maybe even...Crabby?? I'm not really.

Here's some more cake for you. Notice the teeny tiny fondant flipflops! So cute!
