If you, like the rest of my world, are completely done with Halloween, skip this post, do not pass go or celebrate Thanksgiving, and head directly toward Christmas. I picked up the carpool yesterday and noticed that all of the Christmas wreaths are already up in our town center. Driving back into my neighborhood, I saw one of my neighbors hanging Christmas lights (I swear!). And before my son walked out the door for school today, he told me that I needed to put the Halloween decorations away and start making the house look Christmas-y. Is it just me or is a major holiday in between being skipped? Instead of being cynical, I’m going to assume that people are just excited for the holidays and the wonderful spirit that comes with it.
But before, I call my dad over to put up my tree (which by the way, is always hugely entertaining) I thought I’d post a couple of links to some of the yummy food our guests enjoyed at our Halloween carving party.
Creepy Eyeballs (Follow the recipe for brownie pops, cover in white candy coating, place an m&m on top, melt red candy coating and place in a small Ziploc, cut off the tip and pipe.)
Dracula’s Sweet Tooth Martini (an apple/cranberry martini that would be great for the holidays)
Candy Corn Infused Vodka (This time around we mixed the candy corn vodka and orange juice – really good!)
I was surprised that the wreaths in the supermarket/bank areas were put up too! I thought they did it while we were still in NYC! Man, time flies! Enjoy the holidays! I’ve been getting holiday catalogs since beginning of October! (^_^) Glad the party was a blast! Thanks for sharing the pix! HUGS!
Halloween posts are absolutely a-okay since we just got the last of our decorations down today (Thursday). I love your spiderwebs!
looking for your receipe for cheesecake candy corn – can’t find it – my sister sent me the picture – I would like to make it.
