First, woman can not live on s'mores alone. Especially when there are sardines and caesar salads and risotto within walking distance.
Second, I don't really give two hoots about Peeps, except for the really fucking funny series of photos one of my favorite commercial photographers did a couple years ago, showing the peep bunny wabbits in various stages of being trapped or roasted or whathaveyou. Cute.
And finally, CADBURY MINI EGGS ROCK THE PANTS OFF ALL OTHER EASTER CANDY.
You two really speak FRANKLY to each other, dontcha?
I'm not a Peeps girl OR a Cadbury egg fan. I spent my childhood Easters in church, with nary a piece of candy to be found. Sigh.
Thank goodness I have years to make up for the lack.

No, no. The best easter candy is Hershey's candy-covered chocolate eggs. I haven't seen them this year, sadly, but they have this really wonderful crunchy candy coating...
I do love Peeps. I've instituted annual Peep Roasts at my previous and current employers... Think peep on a stick, toasted over a bbq. Mmmmm.
F-- I've got a bowl of the cadbury mini eggs on my wine bar (Crystal, the hershey's version is just a low rent copy. Kind of like how a crack ho compares to a high class call girl. Or how I compare to say, Ruth Reichl).
J -- don't forget that F & myself are part time lovers so the frankness goes with the territory:).
I've been lax about getting my past articles up here because the website was undergoing renovations and I'm a lazy piece of shit. Now that the technical difficulties are worked out over in Mesh server (the computer kind, not the restaurant kind) land, I'll try to be better about notifying you when I write something old school style.
Side note: Easter candy is in the stores. That includes peeps. The candy that everyone either adores or despises. I fall into the adoration category. I also fall into the eat-so-many-of-them-that-I-slip-into-an-insulin-coma category. Once, here in SF, I saw a bus that was, I shit you not, "The Peeps Fun Bus." I almost skipped work so I could get a closer look.
Side note #2: This Thursday (March 16th) is pay-what-you-can night for my show for those of you that thought you were too poor to come see it.
Side note #3: Luna Park is going to do delivery. Including the s'mores. I may never leave the house again.

Fatemeh: Correction: Cadbury's mini eggs are the best easter candy you can get this side of the Atlantic.
