Five ways to combat office stress_#4

Peep-a-licious!
If you don’t know what a Peep is, you are probably a devout health nut. These little marshmallow sugar treats used to come out just at Easter. Stuff a marshmallow into a mold shaped like a baby chick, cover it in yellow granulated yellow sugar and Viola! - a peep is born. They come in packets of 12 sugar-licious peeps. Later the Peep company branched out and now they have a seasonal selection of Halloween pumpkin peeps, red and green holiday peeps. Well, you get the picture.
While I was supposed to be hard at work. I search the Web for more tantalizing information about these habit-forming delicacies. My coworker swears stale peeps are the best. I prefer mine fresh. I read about contests where people make peep dioramas, creating miniature scenes from movies, literature, or out of the imagination. The dioramas, built in shoe boxes, use peeps as people, doll house furniture, and anything else handy. One year the winner had created a spot-on replica of a NYC diner with patrons, waiters, and miniature bar stools. Truly breathtaking! Second place was a scale model of King Arthur’s Court featuring Peeps of the Round Table. Other runners’ up included “Peeps Galore,” a pole-dancing peep in a miniature night club. ‘Nuff said. For hours of sugary fun, try build your own peep diorama. Look it up online for inspiration. And no, I am not making this stuff up!
For my attempt at creating peep world “Office Space” - style, I just had to look around me for inspiration. I meticulously handcrafted peep workers wearing shoelace neckties, peep-sized cubicles made from cutup cardboard boxes. I created tiny furniture. Tin foil covered erasers served as computer screens. A big peep boss walked by with a sticky note, like a cartoon bubble, attached to his head. It read “Get back to work!”
