about Peeps! Wow I don’t think you expected this now did you? Are you a fan of Peeps? I know I am, even though I don’t buy them as I would rather enjoy some sinful handmade pastry instead. Don’t get me wrong, I do love them, but… I hear that some Peeps fans let them get stale before enjoying them.

Here are 20 delicious facts about Peeps… those crispy sugary marshmallowy treats, manufactured in Pennsylvania that seem to be everywhere this time of year!

They can be found any place you shop as we ready for Easter, to stuff in baskets, for decorating the house and everything else in between. I remember as a kid that there were just the original yellow chicks, but now they come in lots of colors and even bunnies and more…oh my!

How about an ode penned to Peeps?

Do you know that there is an official on-line Peeps store and…and… and a Peeps store in Washington DC, where there is everything Peeps?

Even though there were approximately 2 billion Peeps made last year, that number was surpassed by other candies made by their parent company such as Mike and Ike and Hot Tamales!

and how about Peeps in needlepoint? These canvases have been quite popular this year as I see lots of talk about them on Facebook. A great way to enjoy Peeps calorie free!

All Peeps aside, I am looking forward to a day of stitching and watching spring training baseball… all I know that it is 2 weeks and counting!

Play time continues! I wonder if she is thinking if I can’t see you, does that mean that you can’t see me?

and until next time…keep on stitching
