Our Halloween

Hello everyone.  I hope you had a fun and safe Halloween this year. We had a lot of fun  My husband and I took our daughter trick or treating with some friends at a shopping center. The kids had a great time and got lots of goodies. After we got home hubby took our little one around the neighborhood while I stayed home and handed out candy. We actually ran out before the night was over. We also went to our neighbors house and helped hand out candy there.

She did pretty good; trick or treating. Got a good amount of candy.

I took a few pieces of chocolate out of the pile. I'm going to make chocolate bare candy bark. That recipe will be up next week. Have a great week.

Wordless Wednesday

Marshmallow Popcorn

Hey everyone!  It's been a little while since I have posted a recipe and I'm very excited about it. I hope you are too. I had some things left over from the party and decided to make something sweet. What better way to use extras, right?

Before we get to the recipe I wanted to tell you all about some things that I'll be doing to make the blog more organized. First, I'm finally going to make a schedule so that you will know when to expect posts on the blog. There will be two posts a week. One will be Wordless Wednesday and the other will either be a recipe or a craft. I also have some things going on on my fb page. I have a tip of the day and an oldie but a goodie, posted on Sundays.

Okay, lets get to the fun part; the recipe.  It's great for baby showers, birthday parties, and even as party favors. Here's the recipe. Let me know what you think.

Computer Mess up

Hey everyone.  Just a quick announcement. My computer is acting up and I have been forced to post from my phone. I just wanted to let you all know in case you see any strange typos and such. I think I'm going to have to get a new one. Untill then posts will be coming from the phone. Have a great day.

What a Week

Hello everyone.  I hope you are having a great week. For me it has been a busy one. We had  my daughter's birthday party and got new carpet. I'm still trying to get the place back to normal.

The party went well. Lot's of friends and fun. The pinata was a big hit. I made the cupcakes myself instead of buying a cake.  I had a blast. We added a marshmallow on top to decorate. I wanted to have the kids decorate them with sprinkles but there was no way they would stick. The frosting was too dry. We took a premade can of frosting and used food coloring for the color. I'll post a picture of the end result.

The carpet took all day but it was worth it. It's soft and cozy. Now, if  I could only get caught up with getting things back in order.  I'm sure it will happen eventually.

I think tonight calls for some hot cocoa.  How about you?

Here's the picture of the cupcakes I promised.  Have a great night everyone.
