Peeps Wrap-up for 2011

After spending most of my spare time today reviewing additional newspapers' Peeps® contests, I am now ready to close Progressive Charlestown 2011 coverage of Peeps® art. Generally, the Peeps® shows I reviewed today were crap. Not up to this blog's demanding standards. Not even up to mine.

But I did find two worthy additions.

The first comes from the Syracuse Post-Standard where the winning contestant combined in one tableau two of the four basic food groups - Peeps® and pizza.

The second doesn't come from a contest, but rather from a contestant - members of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) entered the Washington Post contest with a truly outstanding Peeps® diorama depicting the Solidarity struggles at the Wisconsin State Capitol against their union-busting Governor Scott Walker. I love it. The Post didn't.
