Chicagoist's favorite part of Easter? The candy. Chicagoist's favorite part about the candy? Doing stuff to peeps. Already in our office we've seen peeps smashed, thrown against the wall, and blown up in the microwave. We pretty much hate peeps. They're so cute..and sugary.. and.. GROSS.

But some people love peeps so much they actually do constructive things with them. And experiments. And recipes and crafts. Some people even hold competitions too see what kinds of creative things people can do with their peeps. And that's where we finally get to the point of our whole rambling post. Matt alerts us to Peepley Field, the winner of a competition in building a scene using peeps as the focus. Matt's friend Andy is the man behind Peeply Field and we think that the construction of the stadium and the use of the two varieties of peeps is nothing short of brilliant. Excellent!

And then there are the freakish things that Jake likes to do with peeps. Some things are best left unknown, dude.
