so halloween is my favorite holiday and october my favorite month. the leaves begin changing into vibrant oranges, yellows, and reds. everyone decorates with pumpkins, gourds, skeletons, and ghosts. children dressed up in their costumes..... i just love halloween! sadly, i don't expect us to have any trick-or-treaters, as our house is located on a gravel road minutes away from town. not to mention, our closest neighbors are a mile away; and I don't recall seeing children at the house anyway. so... no trick-or-treaters :( but i won't let that stop me from having a fabulous halloween!
while we won't have trick-or-treaters, we will be having some friends over. every halloween, the country club here has a costume party, and they have a band. so we are going to that, but first we will pre-game, if you will, here... appetizers, drinks, and of course desserts! i'm pretty excited b/c i love having little get-togethers at our house!! and i love cooking in general, so making food for all of our get-togethers is lots of fun for me! i'm making a blt cheeseball, pumpkin whoopie pies, black, bat shaped sugar cookies, and pilsbury sugar cookies (the ones pre-cut with the halloween pictures/designs). and i'm still considering making baked hushpuppies--it's the deen brothers' recipe and while they look delicious, they also look like mini cornbread muffins (you make the baked hushpuppies in a mini muffin tin). so, i'm just not quite sure yet.
ok, well i hope everyone (ha.. like a bunch of people are reading this. all my fans ha :) has a safe and happy halloween!!
oh yeah, i know i've been slacking on recipes on fridays--this makes the 2nd friday in a row. so i'm going to post a couple of recipes soon.
