Joy, peeps!

Our friends S & B had their baby girl last night. Mr. A and I are going to visit them on our lunch break today, and I'm very excited. I can't wait to hear the birth story, too. Yesterday was their due date; apparently, S went to the hospital for her due date appointment and bam, her water broke. And then just a few hours later, baby! I would like to think that my baby will be just as punctual and efficient, but I have my doubts.

On Mr. A's suggestion, I stopped by Bartell's this morning to see if they had any celebratory candy cigars. They don't, and the woman I asked about it was very short with me--no doubt concluding that I was scheming to addict small children to cigar-smoking, a vice to which we all know they are so easily drawn. Ah, Seattle. I love you but sometimes you are such an uptight pain in the ass.

So, sticking with the disgusting candy theme, I picked this up instead:


Looks delicious, right?

I am a little worried. What are those spots?

Hard to say. Flavor crystals? Condensed Christmas cheer? Your guess is as good as mine.

Nice! The sure way to make any special day even more special. :)

Peeps are from Hell. Second only to the lowly Circus Peanuts on my list of bad candy. I share this because I know you wanted opinions. :P

And you can also spell "OY" and "OJ" and "YO" from this set, which just makes it that much more special.
