It's almost Halloween

I love Peeps. I love them when they're stale on the outside sugary part. The other day, E. asked if she should slice the plastic wrapper on the Peeps ghosts so they could start to "cure" (get stale).
She did.
30 minutes later...there was the empty cardboard container sitting on the counter top. This delicate "curing" technique only works when you hide them away in a cupboard - away from 3 kids and a husband!
Anyway, one morning I woke up and the thought popped into my head="Why not put Peeps in hot chocolate?" I know, I know...you're saying, "Wow! How strange that Amy wakes up thinking of Peeps!" But you have to admit it is a fun idea that makes sense. They're MARSHMALLOWS aren't they?


I apologize that this picture above turned

out kind of yellowish. It should be a deep orange!

This is a tag I made. I have to give a shout out to all the blogland lady artists that gave me the super idea to use crepe paper and trims on a tag. I have seem some really fun, cute, sophisticated, and beautiful examples as I surf the blogland world. This is mine.

The hot coco looks yummy with the chicks in it. I sometimes look at them and say Oh! poor thing. I hate to eat you. But you are to good. not to. I guess because i love animals. funny isn't it.
