Heart Cut-Out Marshmallows
The you warm my heart cocoa mix from Fred Flare is actually a cute idea. It comes with heart cut-out marshmallows and a single serving of hot cocoa mix to send to your beloved on Valentine's Day. Buyer beware: The mixes sell for $8 a pop at fredflare.com. You could also make homemade versions for Christmas next year if you're not a big fan of Valentine's Day.

Thanksgiving is a fascinating holiday. We run around combining canned things with boxed things with jarred things. While the meal is arguably the tastiest of the year, some familiar ingredients are strange. A good strange. A strange we love to hate.In Videos: Fun with Microwaves
There are lots of things you can do with a microwave, other than the social norm (warm up leftovers). You can throw in a jar of Fluff or a plastic doll's head, and wait to see if it blows up. Or, throw in a pile of marshmallows with Christmas lights on top, then see if that blows up. A few guys put on lab coats and channeled their inner mad scientists. It's a six minute video, but if you like blowing stuff up vicariously, watch after the jump....Photo of the Day: Flaming Marshmallows
There's something beautiful about a marshmallow on fire. This photo of a flaming marshmallow by Mike of Another Pint Please reminds me of the first time I roasted marshmallows in a bonfire in 6th grade—they came out looking like charcoal and tasting only mildly better. Mike's marshmallows look like they've endured just the right amount of toastiness.

The Washington Post hosted a contest for Peeps dioramas and the results are in. Called Peeps Show, the contest inspired more than 800 entries, some riffing on pop culture, others on current and past events. My favorite was the one at right, which might be fall into the category of "suicide food," since the bunnies are toasting marshmallows 'round the campfire here. Other dioramas in the contest include a reenactment of former D.C. mayor Marion Barry's arrest, a scene from Hugh Hefpeep's mansion, and one titled "The Lion Peeps Tonight."...Inside the Mind of a Peep Poet
For Raaven O'Quinn, Peeps aren't just pastel-colored marshmallow blobs, they are what poems are made of. About five years ago, O'Quinn fused two wonderful things, Peeps and haikus, to create PeepHaiku.com. The site allows any Peeps poet to upload 5-7-5 metered dedications to those brown, beady eyes. In the spirit of Peeps season, we electronically sat down with O'Quinn to find out why the fat-free, meatless chicks are just so darn special and have spawned other fetishistic side projects such as this dot-org Peeps Research site or Washington Post's Peep Diorama contest. (The 2008 winners will be announced in Sunday's issue). The interview, after the jump....Photo of the Day: Peppermint Marshmallows
