Alright, so we're a little challenged marshmallowy here in Scotland. There are marshmallows, and they actually taste quite nice, but they can't be roasted and they don't have as wide a range of sizes and shapes as we do in the States. Knowning this, my lovely mother figured we probably didn't have Peeps over here so she sent me a couple boxes to share with my small group girls. 
They had never seen a Peep before! Can you believe it?! It's just weird. I, personally, can't imagine my life without Peeps (even though I never actually eat them) just because once Easter hits, a small army of Peeps make their decent upon the "Seasonal" asile of every grocery store in the Nation.
So here we are, enjoying our Peep adventure....
_________________________________________________Two Peeps facing an imminent death by explosion in the microwave. We were all laughing, but a couple girls did think I was kinda mean for doing this. "It's nearly a chicken!" Martha said. But I was like, "No it's not! It's made out of marshmallow, you silly." Then Rachel argued, "But it has a face!" Hahaha... so special...
Pure awe and amazment as they watch the Peeps expand to the brink of bursting.
All the girls in my small group say, "Thanks, Mum!" for sending the Peeps :o)

LOL! My brain just popped over the plethora of thoughts/comments I could put here.
Way to carry the torch and spread the legend of the Peep Anna!
girls would ask why you would explode a Peep, because they think it's mean.
guys would ask why you wouldn't explode a Peep, because they think it's awesome.
haha, so hillarious! i do have to agree w/ you, that somehow you find yourself missing things that you never really ate before while @ home. peeps would be a perfect example of this! i never really liked them, but you're making me crave them somehow! hehe ohh yes, i can be the queen of exclamation points, i'm told!!!!!!! hehe
I'm glad you all enjoyed the Peeps! Just trying to pass on some American culture. Love, Mom
I think Peeps and cockroaches are going to be the two things that survive a nuclear holocaust if it ever happens.
