I learned something today. Which is,
If you don't like random people talking to you and staring at you, don't go out in public with a kid dressed up like a mad scientist with white-dyed hair standing 6 inches out in all directions and freaky black eyebrows.
Obviously.
Right?
Next year I will pre-arrange my grocery shopping and other errands around children's Halloween parties and the need thereof for them...

Halloween Sugar Cookies

Nom Nom Nom.
I think my favorite thing about holidays is the sugar cookies that can be adapted for them. This is the same recipe I used for Firework Sugar Cookies and if you haven't tried it, you need to! They're sweet and satisfying and addictive.
I love this method of piping cookies with regular frosting. They turn out super cute and it's SO much easier than the royal icing/pipe & flood method.

Vampire Bat Bark

Halloween is in... 1 1/2 days, and I still have tons of treats to post. No matter what I do, I seem to always be behind these days. The pictures just keep piling up. Life has been so crazy lately I can't blog every day or two like I want to. This week for example I've been busy watching my 2 year old throw up all over the table at Chick-fil-a, cleaning up my 4 year old after he peed his pants at a movie night at our friends'...

Trick or Treat Skewers

But if you miraculously have some candy laying around, this is a cute idea for it. You can even wrap the whole stick in a long piece of clear wrap and tie it with a spooky ribbon.
If you live in a friendly neighborhood where your neighbors like you and don't think...

Candy Corn Bark

I've been such a bad blogger lately. I blinked my eyes and it went from September to October 19th. Seriously.
I had plans to celebrate reaching my half-a-million views milestone.
Yeah, pretty much missed that days ago.
Can we pretend I made this bark in honor of that?
Thanks to all of you who read along, try my recipes, and leave me comments, emails, and facebook messages to keep me going. Blogging...

Spiced Apple Cider Streusel Muffins

It's officially Fall. I know because I caught my first nasty illness of the season. I'm not sure if it's strep or just a monster sore throat but it's preventing me from eating and that just makes me grumpy. Boo. My secret cure to a sore throat is that Alpine sugar-free hot spiced cider that comes in little packets. Seriously nothing cures a sore throat better than that. Try it out!
Turns out...
