Peeps

Cher Madame,

I’ve been hearing about a large rabbit.  C’est très alarming.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

Could it be you are referring to the Easter Bunny?

Love,

Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Oui, that’s the one.  Molly says he plans to steal the eggs from our chickens.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

The Easter Bunny isn’t interested in our chickens.  He is a benign pagan creature who once was a symbol of fertility, springtime and new life, but sadly now just deals in decorated eggs and iconic candy – hollow milk-chocolate bunnies and Peeps.

Love, Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Peeps?  Peeps, c’est quoi?  Those petit sticky yellow confections?  Pah.  C’est un terrible imitation of baby chicks, which I’m sure in real life are vraiment tasty snacks.  I have contempt for this Easter Bunny.   I will allow Molly to chase him away with her yapping.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin

You are very generous to let Molly handle the situation.  Is she worried about the Easter Bunny?

Love,

Carolyn

 

Cher Madame,

Molly assures me that this abnormally large lapin, this so-called Easter Bunny, is a very disturbing character.  She informs me that you, Madame, are being strangely casual about le security, that you are not alarmed about this dangerous intruder.  She plans to bark loudly at him until he drops the goodies and flees.  Then she plans to eat the Peeps.

Regards,

M. Le Poufin

 

Dear Puffin,

We can all be grateful Molly has the situation diligently in hand.

Love,

Carolyn
