Look, I know weather is bad every where, but I think any of my fellow Midwesterners can agree that these past two months of “spring” have been a bigger tease than my school bullies after I admitted I liked Neopets.
So while Michigan’s climate has been clenching my seasonally affected spirits in its mittened clutches, I think we’re finally over the worst of it. While I happily sweated through my local Meijer, I appropriately saw a beacon of true Spring: like a prancing baby deer, chirping robin, or one of those awful stink trees—you know, the ones that smell like a damp Filet-O-Fish that got kicked under a rotten couch—a seasonal cereal like these new Spring colored Rice Krispies are harbingers of happy times, times when I don’t need to sleep inside a Tauntaun to feel comfortable.
While new to the States, these blue and green Rice Krispies have been released in Canada before. And while I’m not sure exactly what its colors are trying to connote—robin’s eggs in a tree? oceanic algae? the Blue Man Group on St. Patrick’s Day?—I do know one thing for sure: seeing newly animated Snap, Crackle, and Pop in bunny ears seems like a good prompt for a Silent Hill fan fiction.
Featuring my favorite OC of course: Food Pyramid Head.
