we had a little pumpkin party over here this past weekend. i went a little over board in the pumpkin purchasing department.i just couldn’t help myself, they were all staring me down at the store. and all those goodies you saw from the last post, i made for this party. (check them out here ) i also bought carving stencils, tools, and pumpkin gut scrappers, along with paint and brushes. i love getting family and friends together, and decorating pumpkins just made it feel a little more like the holidays!!
holiday’s mean holiday parties and with that comes food, the question is,
what food???
well i’ve got a couple halloween festive foods that are super easy and super yummy!!!
i hope this takes that stress out of your holiday party planning.
what fun festive foods do you like to make?!
“pepperoni pizza snake”
“white chocolate pretzel bones”
………
things you will need for the pizza snake
– begin by pre heating your oven to 350 degrees
– flour the surface of your counter and roll out the dough to a rectangular shape
– add your topping to the center portion making the first and last layer cheese
– roll the pizza into a log
– form into an “s” on your greased sheet pan, seam side down
– brush the top of the roll with the beaten egg and food coloring
– bake for 30-35 min. or until golden
-place toothpicks where the eyes would go and then place olives on the toothpicks
– cut the pepper into a tongue shape and place in the mouth
– then serve!!!!
easy as that!!!
……..
now for the white chocolate pretzel bones
– put a mini marshmallow on each end of the pretzel rod
– dip in melted white chocolate (i melt my chocolate in the microwave at 30 sec 3x)
– use the fork to fish the bone out
– place on wax paper
– refrigerate for 15-20 min or until chocolate is hard
– place in a bowl and serve
happy party planning everyone!!!!!
i’ve been having some difficulty deciding on a costume for the husby and i this year.
i love dressing up… the husby… not so much.
but he’s a good sport, or i’m just torturing him every year and he doesn’t say anything.
either way, we need some costumes.
any suggestions????!!!!
please and thank you :)

here’s a few pictures through the years to get your halloween juices flowing!
i had to through this one in there cuz it’s so stinking cute!
….. all my pics in one place… this is life through the eyes of my iphone …..
it’s crazy how quickly a year goes by. i can remember our wedding day like it was yesterday,
how i felt, how beautiful everything was and this crazy calm feeling that came over me,
just confirming how right everything was.
i hope i never forget all the little details from that impossibly perfect day.
so here we are one year later, and what better way to celebrate then with two days all to our selves. we spent our first night together at the wicked show ( which by the way, if you’ve never seen it…. a-mazing!) and then headed to chinatown for a little late night dinner, slurping pho. the second day we found our selves snuggling in bed longer then usual and decided to have a lazy day. so we skipped breakfast and went to an early lunch of pizza, then slept some more and then went for a romantic dinner at one of our favorite steakhouses. we ended our night at home over a bottle of wine and read the letters that we wrote to each other one year earlier on our wedding day. i couldn’t have asked for a better one year anniversary and can’t wait to celebrate the many more to come.
one year ago today, i married the man i had always dreamed of, the love of my life and my best friend.
he shows me everyday what it means to love someone, and i feel like the luckiest girl in the world that he picked me.
i can’t wait to spend the rest of my life with him.
happy one year anniversary husby
i love you more than you will ever know.
xoxo
