~Happy Halloween and Simple & Sweet Fridays #87~

Happy Halloween!!
I just finished making special treats for the kids.



We're ready for all the Trick-or-Treaters!


It's always so much fun to see all the children in costume.
Love all the lights and candles glowing through-out the house!
I wanted to share Stan's Halloween costume last year.
He was a Garden Gnome.
He did such a good job on it.
I was a Garden Fairy!
We'll surprise you with this years costume next week!

Happy Halloween To All Our Blogging Friends!!

~Bewitching Hour Soon~

Are you ready for the Trick-or-Treaters this week?
I couldn't pass up buying these sweets.
Little Halloween goodies made with Oreo cookies.
Yummy!!
The Owls definitely agree!
Dracula and Frankenstein cookies!
Aren't these cute!
I wanted to share some photos of the house decorated for Halloween.
  







Tomorrow I'll make some cupcakes.
I'm sure the kids will love the sprinkles!
Relaxing before the door bell rings...

~Autumn Inspiration and Simple & Sweet Fridays #86~

I love this time of year, especially in the garden.
Decorating with rich seasonal shades.
Create the perfect centerpiece using flowers, pinecones and
~Cabbages~
Adding height makes it a stunning tablescape. 
A beautiful purple cabbage makes a delightful focal point!
Fresh picked flowers from the garden.


Surround your centerpiece with gourds, pumpkins and squashes.
Your table will have a luscious palette of Fall colors.
I finally tried a recipe I've been wanting to make.
~Ricotta Stuffed Squash Blossoms~
I harvested the blossoms from our garden.
The filling is ricotta, zest of lemons and zucchini.
The batter is flour and buttermilk.
It's a delicious Fall appetizer!
One more week till Halloween!!


Looking forward to all your creative things you've been working on this week!!
