Last year we had an egg drop. Everyone had to design a container to protect a raw egg from breaking when dropped. Well, it was fun, but we have way to many engineers. Harvey ended up on the roof throwing them off trying to get a winner. This year I decided to get creative. We went with Peeps. Ryan chose Star Wars. I’ve been thinking of doing this for a year. We started it on Sat. night…Fortunately, it only took one extra Michael’s run.
I know no one saw this coming after my first attempt at dipping the bunnies! I decided to read the directions after that. And then watch a video. Uh, folks, this is why they invented YouTube! They are all Peeps. I am especially proud of Yoda.

This one set the bar pretty high.
Nothing says “Easter” quite like the Vietnam War.

My friend Tom has a man crush on the Viet Nam War diorama. We figured it was modeled on Colonel Kurtz' camp in Apocalypse Now. Love the smell of peeps in the morning.
