A Freebie Piece of Pumpkin Pie Favor Box...

I love using this Pumpkin Pie Box for little treat for my friend, teachers and neighbors... I also like to add a little 'pumpkin spice' to the caramel popcorn recipe, then place it inside the pie... it's simple... and yummy!!

Apples... Apples... Apples... & More Apples...

This is my favorite time of year.... for APPLES... and the best by far are Honeycrisp!!! It really is an apple worth talking about. They're green, yellow and pink skin yield a very sweet... slightly tart center for a perfect crunch! They're amazing to snack on! These beauties aren't around long... and they're not reasonably priced... but, they are the one thing I do spoil my family with... because they're worth every bite!

Mini Caramel Apples

 I made today's theme about apples, because there is so many different ideas you can do with an apple.... Take this first one... 

It's party treat perfection in one small bite... Caramel Apple Bites... using a melon baller, you make apple balls, add a stick, then cover them with caramel!!! Neat huh?

Apple Votive Candles

This next party decorating idea is something I do every year for my Thanksgiving Table... Apple Votive Candles... an easy thing to make and always look incredible on a table! This is one is worth trying... it's fantastic for any party or family get together!

One last thing... I don't often use Honeycrisp beauties for anything other than snacking on... but occasionally, I make chicken salad sandwiches with them... and this... Chicken Salad with Honeycrisp Apples & Candied Walnuts is... oh my... it's delish!!

Fun Halloween Party Snacks...

Boo Berry • Count Chocula • Franken Berry

As I was grocery shopping... I came across these Monster Cereals... Frankenberry, Count Chocula, and Boo Berry!  And thought... what a great little added treat for a halloween party... easy and fun!

This cereal reminds me how every fall my mom would surprise us kids with these cereals. She wouldn't buy them all year... but when fall came around... we had a treat! I thinks that's makes them special to me, that and the fact that we have granola the rest of the year... mmm... love fall!

So now my daughter is asking for them every time we go grocery shopping... I say 'No!'... then surprise her... because I have to keep the tradition a live... since it's fall!

Have a monster of a fall day!!!
