| Hey there-
Well, I am aware it's pretty kooky. But it was fun, and awfully cute in a strange, eccentric way. I made a garland for my dining room, and a wreath for my kitchen, out of varnished Marshmallow Peeps. If you'd like to see how it all turned out, you can view the projects here: http://web.mac.com/thriftshopromantic/iWeb/The_Thrift_Shop_Romantic/Pe ep_Project.html Craft happy!

| Hi, Shaddy-- There aren't actually embedded pics, it's just a link. I'll try posting the link at the bottom of this post. Minnie, Coppertop and Oddie, thanks! Oddie, you're always so supportive-- much appreciated. --Jenn |

| I wonder how long the peeps will keep?? My Valentine cookies (from last year) kept great all year remember I used them again this year . |

| Oh, Minnie, I missed the thing on your Valentine cookies-- is there a link lurking around here yet regarding that? Would be fun to see. I, too, have absolutely no idea how they'll hold up. I don't know whether the varnish will yellow them at all, or whether they'll either go really hard or get squishy. Time will tell, I guess. :-) |

| Great ideas! Best use I've ever seen for them. I wouldn't put money on it, but somehow I think peeps last forever! Be Safe, Rach |
