For My Peeps

Remember when we just ate our Peeps? They were chicks or bunnies, and they came in a couple of colors, and you ate two or three of them and left the open box in the pantry until you threw them out on Halloween.

Then Peeps went big time. Why just Easter, when there are other holidays throughout the year to exploit? Halloween Peeps, Christmas peeps, even St Patrick's Peeps. Any holiday is an occasion to eat, and if you're eating, why not abnormally brightly colored marshmallows coated in sugar?

But Peeps, you've reached the big time now. Lenox has immortalized you in fine china and 24 karat gold. Let's hope Granny doesn't chip a tooth on you when she is supposed to be passing the salt.

And if you really want to take your Easter to new heights, why not indulge in a matching Egg Cup? Because when you take a break from your chocolate bunny and hot cross buns, you might want to indulge in an old fashioned soft boiled egg. But, how to, without the proper equipment?
