PEEPS DIORAMAS: Spring Rituals

Of all my childhood Spring Confection memories, PEEPS stand out. My sister and I still buy each other PEEPS around Easter, even though neither of us actually eat the sugary marshmallow-y creatures any more--or at least I don't. She buys me purple rabbits; I buy her classic yellow chicks --the original PEEPS. You see where this is going? I'm a purist.

The Washington Post has its annual PEEPS diorama contest, and one of the winning entries a few years ago was Peepton Abbey Season 3. Perfect for Mystery Fanfare readers. See all the winning 2016 dioaramas here.

And, here are two of this year's winners.

PEEPILTON: THE MUSICAL

PEEPTREK
And, since I will be spending Easter in Bodega Bay, here's my all time favorite Peeps Diorama: Hitchcock's The Birds:
HITCHCOCK'S THE BIRDS
A few years ago I set up a small PEEPS scenario of my own. PEEPS vacationing in Bodega Bay. Hope the Chicks don't turn rogue. They are birds, after all.

    There were Peeps tombstones available this past fall (first time I'd seen them anyhow).
