Whatever you’re doing or however you’re celebrating, have a spooky good time! You’ll find us sitting in the driveway with a big cauldron of candy to hand out. I love seeing all the kids in costume.

Halloween Cake Mix Cookies
I love cookies anytime, and I really do mean anytime. So much so that it’s completely normal for me to bake a batch or two before we go on a trip. Weekends may just be brownies or a cobbler, but anything longer than that calls for cookies. Bonus if they can be hidden in the…
Hawaiian Chicken Sliders YouTube
The eat-a-thon that is Halloween to New Year’s is almost here! We are hoping and praying the darn virus numbers will be down enough to spend quality time with our family.

Reese’s Pieces Cookies

Candy corn is quite the controversial candy. It seems you either love it or hate it. Count me in the love it group. I start buying it as soon as I see it then stash it in the back of the pantry. The stores by me are completely out by mid-October and I like to…
