Peeps help me design
Yesterday my husband bought me my favorite Easter treat! PEEPS! Two packages of yellow chicks. I consumed one box right away, I just couldn’t help myself. I’m trying to have control with the other package, make myself eat only one at a time, ok two at a time, but at least sit down at my desk and eat them slowly. It’s really tough! I love these little things, and I only get them once a year! The thing no one knows is that Peeps actually help me design! They’re my comfort candy. And I’ve been doing a LOT of designing. It’s a good thing the stores are filled with Peeps! …
