for peeps' sake
The amount of publicity that Marshmallow Peeps receive every Easter is mind boggling. Most of it seems to be fan-generated rather than coming from the company's press releases. As a lifelong Peeps lover myself, I can honestly say that I was a big fan before it was cool. For example, I once brought a package of purple Peeps to a glacier near Mt. McKinley in Alaska.
The Peeps will be featured tomorrow on CBS News Sunday Morning. Rita Braver's report will include a film I told you about in April 2007 and an artist that I told you about in March of last year.
Mary Constantine of the Knoxville News Sentinel posted a video showing how to use Peeps and chocolate chips to decorate a Peeps Sunflower Cake.
Meanwhile in Washington, the WMATA is using Peeps to get baseball fans to ride the Metro to the new Nationals Park.
Speaking of DC, the Washington Post got some tremendous entries in their second annual diorama contest. Out in Washington State, the readers of the Seattle Times created some great Peeps art.
When I showed my wife a cute picture of a Peeps costume for toddlers, she honestly asked if it came in my size.
When my daughter celebrates Easter tomorrow, she'll have a care package that my wife mailed to her. It contain some of the brand new Peeps Tulips.
A New Jersey columnist writes that he can't eat just one Peep. Can't say that I blame him.

Have you seen the chocolate egg with the peep inside? Got it in my basket! And the cocoa peeps? Got those too. Last week at my fitness evaluation when they started to do the Body Composition test I told the trainer to save time - I'm 75% pudge and 25% Marshmallow Peeps. I was wrong, by only a little. But abs of peeps is okay, right?
