Special Delivery

This weekend was extra special, not only did I celebrate my anniversary but I received a care package from my parents and from a friend. In both these packages were something I have been missing so much especially this time of year. Now this is not loved by everyone, and many of you will say yuck! But that's fine we all have our vices. I received several packages of Easter Peeps, little rabbits and chick marshmallows pillows from heaven! Yes Germany has nothing of the sort, granted they have the best chocolate in the world and so why carry marshmallow animals covered in sugar but whatever. I'm so thankful for my packages of love.. I just hope at least one will make it to the Easter basket. But the good news is I think having Easter Peeps everyday is so going to help me kick my chocolate habit, who knows I may even lose some weight!

Ahhh... this is a wonderful care package! My daddy loved these little guys. When I started to see them in the stores I was having fond memories of the past Easters and how I would buy loads of them for him (I think he would still eat them at Christmas time because I gave him so many!!). Enjoy my friend, enjoy them!!!

I love the yellow Peeps! For some reason the pink Peeps just don't taste the same!

I can only eat 1 or 2 but they are the cutest things ever. Enjoy! I'd like them dipped in chocolate myself. LOL.

They do loook scrumptious. We don't get them here..

Ronda said...

Oh, I love them too. I kind of like them when they get to be a few days old, and are a little bit chewy. I just bought a new kind yesterday--orange cream. It's kind of like the orange cream-cycle ice cream. I like the original better, even though these are good too! I love the malted eggs too.

LOL... isn't it amazing... the things you miss when you're away from home? I have a bunch of things I'd LOVE to have here. But well, this whole care package thing is not working out for me. Damn parents. ;)

Wanna trade care packages? I'll send you one, you send me one?

Happy Anniversary to you guys!

My kids love peeps, even though they're young men now. I wait until after the holidays and totally stock up. Big Kid found a box of hard ones from last year and took them home with him. LOL

When I mailed my german exchange student peeps he emailed me to ask if he roasted them since they were marshmallows?? hee hee! Didn't know germany did not have Peeps!!

What's not to love about peeps? And they are far healthier than chocolate...no fat only sugar. :)
