HAPPY HALLOWEEN



There's a goblin at my window,
A monster by my door.
The pumpkin at my table
Keeps on smiling more and more.
There's a ghost who haunts my bedroom,
A witch whose face is green.
They used to be my family,
Till they dressed for Halloween :)


Have a Wonderful and Safe Holiday :)
Enjoy all the wonderous treats

Yay Cupcakes !


Um Hi ! 

Halloween is just a few days away and who doesn't love cupcakes- well I'll tell ya what I LOVe cupcakes ! 
It's perfect you don't feel obligated to eat a whole cake because it's a tiny cake !
 -- What a clever idea- Kudos to the Cupcake man!! 
Anyway as I've mentioned 100's of times before I LOVE Fall so of course I've been doing some baking lately ! 
Such as Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Oatmeal Cookies a fall FAVORITE in my house, and ever so popular cut-outs-- ghosts-witches- pumpkins you know ! :)
And then my personal Halloween favorite !-- Homemade Peanut Butter Doughnuts with Chocolate frosting :) Delish :)
But as for those recipes--- I can't leak them--- family secrets :)
Anyway so I was like I haven't made a Halloween cake-- so we need to hop on that one :) 
But cake's waste quicker- not as convienent you know--- so i was researching Cupcake decorations and found some favorites :)...... and a few other Holidays as well :)

Happy Baking :)

Mashed Boo-tatos


=)
Aren't these just spook-tacular---- sorry little bit of fall humor haha
Classic meatloaf is dressed up with two special side dishes. We used a pastry bag to pipe mashed potatoes into ghosts and sweet potatoes into pumpkins. The ghosts' eyes are black sesame seeds. For the pumpkins, pecan halves make the steams and bits of cilantro become leaves..
So creative =)
