Peep's Afire! (Dedicated to Nippy Katz)

While visiting the SQOTD™, I was overcome with an urge to set a hard, stale marshmallow Peep on fire.

So I did.

Had this been planned, I'd have wiped down the stove.

The Peep begins to get a tan.

I didn't quite expect this.

Oh, good. The fire's dying down.

Let's check the other side.

I'm honored.

It's a great martyrdom. Did the peep make a speech?

She killed it for Nippy -- that makes all the difference in the world.

It's a shame you can't get your hands on those Care Bear marshmallows Ina won a couple of weeks ago in the SQOTD. Those would be amazingly psychologically scarring for a child to watch burn...

Do you have anymore? You should microwave one. The results are epic.

Why, yes, I do.

Will I need a fire extinguisher?

Any idea how many carcinogens you've released into the atmosphere with that little prank!?! I hope you're happy.

Don't you try to burn my marshmallow Care Bears! Not unless I'm there to watch.

This is hysterical. This is the Andrea I missed.

You know what's cool to microwave? A Little Debbie chocolate covered marshmallow cookie thing. Those things go to town!

BTW: consider this a testament to the suggestive power of the SQOTD. The stars are alligned today-- every wish Joy has is coming true.

I'm going gay for you on Tonia's thread, Ina.

*smooch*

Andrea "slackermom" R. Aug 8, 2008, 5:22pm EDT

That was pretty cool. I have to do it again with multiple peeps. I think it could fill the entire microwave up if you used about a dozen peeps.

Should we start worrying about what other urges you give in to, Andrea?

I'm so tickled to see Tonia again.

That is Pyro Peep goodness, there! Someone try the Little Debbie so I can see it...

Ooo microwave! I bet they just EXPLODE!

Depends on how long you nuke it. I recommend covering your microwave turn table with wax paper. I never microwaved dried out ones so the results may not be as epic. . .

I'm not responsible for any explosions. . .

I think you should preform more experiments on these poor marshmallow critters, along the lines of The Twinkies Project

CC look whats on the shelf of Andrea's stove.

You should photoshop a sad face and x's for eyes on the last one. . .
I'd use it as an icon.

(left eyebrow raised) Fascinating!

Ina ♥ Tagline Free Since September '09 ♥ Aug 8, 2008, 5:48pm EDT

I think that's the Pillsbury Doughboy, not the Sta'Puft Marshmallow Man, sharon.

Ina ♥ Tagline Free Since September '09 ♥ Aug 8, 2008, 5:48pm EDT

I like the idea of an icon. But not yet. Maybe next Easter.

No, Ina, it is the Marshmallow man in GB. Gozer asks the guys what form they wanted the creature to take that detroy the world. Ray picked the Stay puft guy.

I never did bunnys in the micro, but the chickens get huge!

I know this because it was AdultMaleBoy's favorite movie for ohhhh about two years straight after it came out. Would you like to me do a word for word of dialogue from the script? LOL
I bet I still could if I tried hard enough...
Beetlejuice & My Pet Monster, too.

If I had a gas stove I would try this. I do not. I do however have a microwave. Hmmm.....

Peep s'mores?

Tonia - the peep chicks work better in the microwave. They expand to epic proportions and look Really Cool!

I say, do it to the peeps! Stealing our jobs! Lusting after us in showers! They're responsible for everything!

You really must have been bored, cute and funny photo essay Andrea.

You should also try it in the oven under the broiler.....

No explosion but their heads seem to melt perfectly and then their little dot eyes drip down the rest of them as they goo all over.

One of those days, Andrea? Or do you routinely sacrifice marshmallow critters for the amusement of your family and friends?

*(what's up with these peep thingys anyway? Flit, do they have them in your part of Canada? I'd never seen or heard of the darn things until I moved to Texas.)*

Andrea "slackermom" R. Aug 9, 2008, 4:16pm EDT

This is not the first time we've abused Peeps and posted it to Gather. There were several photo essays and even videos posted around Easter. I still had all those leftover Peeps and Nippy said he didn't like marshmallows and it kind of got out of hand.
