What to do with all those PEEPS?

Is it just me or are you also feeling like every store you walk into is being taken over by PEEPS? I see PEEPS in every color and variety as I stroll the isle of my stores.  I'm beginning to think the Easter bunny has a PEEP addiction - so what will we do with all those PEEPS once they are delivered to our homes?

Over the past few weeks 24/7 MOMS has shared a few fun PEEP recipes and ideas for our What to do with all those PEEPS after  the Easter PEEPS overload crisis.

  2. These are all such cute ideas! I have to say, however, that 'whatever will we do with all these Peeps?' has never been a problem in our home. The answer, in a couple of words? Eat 'em! :)

    (Still...I might try to fight that instinct and try one of these adorable treats!)
