Peepsicle

In our house we used to dye eggs for Easter, but its really a lot of work for something that we almost immediately smash to make deviled eggs, or egg salad, or something yummy.  Don't get me wrong, I like food that looks good, but if you can't eat it what good is it.  So instead of decorating eggs, now we decorate peeps.  Yes, peeps.

So first the peeps have to be prepared for decorating.  They are squirmy little critters, so we give them handles.  

 Then we freeze them, in this case for a couple of days.  Once they are frozen they are ready for decorating.  So we gather up as much stuff as we can find to decorate them with.

But before we can decorate them we have to prepare the peeps so that the decorations will stick.

Chocolate works nicely.  

And then we get...

 Far better than colored eggs any day!
