Pumpkin Carving Tool Kit


Have you carved your Halloween pumpkins yet? Or do you wait until the 31st to do it? We usually carve ours about a week before (depending on the weather) so they don't get all mushy and ugly by the time Halloween arrives. I have some friends that live down south that wait until closer to Halloween so they don't get all hot and nasty. It really all depends on where you live I think. At any rate it's exactly one week until Halloween so it's time to start planning out your pumpkin designs.

The Toy Overlord says "Check out the Megalopolis Halloween Guide"


Halloween is right around the spooky corner and Megalopolis has everything you need to make the most of this creepy time of year! From Freddy Kruger to Aliens, to the cute and cuddly Gizmo Megalopolis has a wide assortment of Halloween themed figures to choose from.

Halloween treats for all from Palmer


When Halloween rolls around you can count on R.M. Palmer to have an assortment of old and new treats fit for every Trick-r-Treater out there. With their vibrant packaging you can always count on them to have great tasting treats that will have the whole neighborhood knocking on your door. I know I could barely keep my husband and kids out of the bags of candy when they arrived. I fell for that "quality check" as my husband likes to call it when something that looks tasty arrives on our doorstep. I guess it was my mistake opening them so they could try each kind out thinking they would be satisfied with one of each. I guess that's a good sign though because it meant they loved what they were trying and I could be happy sharing them with the neighbor kids on Halloween night.

Each treat is individually wrapped making them great not just for those trick-r-treaters coming to your door but also for school parties or dropping in your kiddos lunch boxes for an extra special treat!

About R.M. Palmer Company:

Palmer Company is the 25th largest confectioner in North America and the 82nd largest confectioner in the world. (candyindustry.com).

Have a good laugh this Halloween with a Mr. Meeseeks Onesie with Butt Flap


If you're a Rick and Morty fan you could take one look at this onesie and know it's Mr. Meeseeks. I've personally never watched it before, but my daughter and her friends sure have. So he knew as soon as it came up on my computer screen exactly who it was. And from there it was all about how her and her friends could be Rick and Morty characters for Halloween. They had it all planned out in no time and of course how could I say no? So the next logical thing for me to do was get a Mr. Meeseeks costume in hands for her to play her part. After searching the internet I stumbled up the TV Store Online website and this super cute onesie version. I just knew it was the perfect costume for her as soon as I saw it. And I have to say she makes a pretty cute Mr. Meeseeks. I mean just look at the expression on her face. It says it all right there! And the best part about getting her a onesie as a costume is she will be able to wear it even after Halloween for lounging around the house, or for bed.

Celebrate National Dog Week with Fresh Halloween Looks from zulily!


I remember our first Halloween with our pup Java. My kids were super into the Air Buddies movies and had just recently watched their Santa Buddies movie. From there I am sure you can guess what they decided Java should be for Halloween...yep, Santa Puppy. Luckily I had some Christmas decorations that we ended up putting to good use to get her ready for Halloween. I'm still not sure if she was too keen on the idea, but she didn't mind wearing her trendy scarf too much.

Welch's Fruit Snack Kabobs


Nothing says Halloween fun like a mini-party with the family. We like to have a little extra fun as a family for all of the holidays. Just something to help us make special memories we will always be able to treasure with the kids. This year for Halloween I received an awesome party kit from my friends at Welch's so I decided to have a little fun with their fruit snacks and make Fruit Snack Kabobs. My daughter and I used the little Halloween themed plastic toothpicks to slide different colored fruit snacks on. Then we lined them up on a plate for everyone to enjoy during our little party.


One of the fun things we received in our party package was Halloween themed BINGO sheets. The fun part was we got to use Welch's Fruit Snacks in place of BINGO chips. My daughter really liked that because it meant there would be lots of fruit snacks to enjoy after we were done.


Just check out this awesome party kit with loads of fun Halloween supplies!

Halloween Treats Buffet Style


When it comes to the holidays like Halloween right now I tend to do a little extra. My son is 17 so he's already outgrown dressing up for Halloween, and with my daughter being in middle school now I'm sure it won't be much longer until she's outgrown it too. So for these last few remaining years I'm going to enjoy it while she still wants to dress up and do fun things with her friends. Because after that I'll be waiting until I have grand-kids to be able to have as much fun. Living in the country we really don't get a ton of trick-or-treaters so I usually have to go to a friends house if I want to pass out candy. Or like we are doing this year let my daughter have some friends over for a mini-Halloween party. We thought it would be a good way for her to get to know some of her new middle school friends, and of course it allows me to do that "little extra" for Halloween. We are having some of the kids come over one afternoon after school for a few hours to play some Halloween themed games, and of course pick out some fun treats to take home with them.

To make things a little different I decided it would be fun to do a Halloween buffet. It seems like now days there are so many restrictions on what kids can and can't have so I thought this would be a great way to offer them the choice of what they want for their treats. Plus it was a lot of fun for me to get it all together and ready for them to dig in!

For my Halloween treats buffet I used a fun Halloween themed table runner, orange candy buckets, stress eyeballs, mini stress putty, Halloween themed pretzels, and an assortment of candy. It was super easy to do through ordering off the Oriental Trading website under Halloween Decor and Halloween Headquarters. I love being able to shop for everything in one place. It saves a ton of time and I don't even have to leave my house. Plus it's always fun seeing my daughter's reaction when the big ole box arrives and she gets to see what all I ordered.

Now to wait a few more weeks until it's closer to Halloween for our little Halloween Gathering. In the meantime here's to hoping I can keep it all hidden good enough to for the supplies to last until then!

Whose Got the Best Candy?


Every year at Halloween I always here the kids discussing which house they are going to first and whose got the best candy. Silly me I always thought to a kid any candy was the "best" candy. But boy was I wrong. After following my daughter and one of her friends around a neighborhood last year for Halloween I learned a thing or two. There are houses that give out small amounts of candy like a single piece of bubble gum, and there are other houses that give out bigger treats like a handful of all sorts of candy. Heck we even went to one house that had treats for us adults. I was quite impressed at this point and began to understand the strategic planning that went into their evening. It also gave me a little more insight into how I should plan my Halloween candy shopping for this year. I decided that I was going to not only do my usual name brand candies like M&M's but also do some of the smaller candies so I could give kids a handful of treats. You know be one of those "Best Candy" houses. And I even picked up some fun Pumpkin shaped tins filled with mints for the adults that actually come up to the door with the kids. I'm all about being the fun place to come for Halloween. It's always neat seeing the kids in their costumes and hearing how excited they are when you give them some treats.

You can find these sweet treats and lots of others in the Halloween section of the Oriental Trading website.

Ghost & Bats Veggie Chips - a better-for-you snack option


This Halloween you can pass out a better-for-you snack option when trick-or-treaters come knocking at the door. You don't have to give them sugar packed treats to get them excited. At least not when it comes to my kids, they get excited over lots of other treats too. Take for instance these super cute Ghost & Bats Veggie Chips from Sensible Portions. They're made with all natural ingredients to create a delicious sea salt flavor and are one of those treats sure to be a hit with children and parents alike.

These ghost and bat-shaped veggie chips contain 30% less fat than the leading potato chip and are the perfect savory treat to hand out to trick-or-treaters this Halloween or package up in goody bags for Halloween parties at home or school. I know we've already gone through half a bag in the week they've been open in our house just from the kids eating them for after school snacks!

A few other reasons Ghosts & Bats Veggie Chips are a scary good addition to your Halloween celebration:
• Gluten-free
• No artificial flavors or preservatives
• Available in individual sized bags perfect for passing out to little goblins and ghouls
• 0g trans fat
• Available for a limited time nationwide this fall

Ready..Set..Glow!


I don't know why, but when I think about Halloween besides thinking of all the tasty treats it makes me think about things that glow in the dark. Maybe it's because there are so many kiddos out on the sidewalks in the dark and as parents we want to make sure people see our kids. Or maybe because glow-in-the-dark things are also a fun thing to give in place of sugary sweets. I know kids love all the candy that they get when they are out trick-or-treating, but I also know they love getting fun things like glow-in-the-dark slime and glow-in-the-dark necklaces. I know this because as soon as mine arrived my daughter was already begging me to let her have a necklace and pink slime. She said it was so she could "test it" for me. You know put it under the light and then run off to her bedroom and shut the door to see it glow. Of course I really knew what that meant, that after the so called testing I would never see them again. I guess it was a good thing I got a good sized package of each from Oriental Trading's Halloween shop.


I tried to take my own photos of the necklaces and slime glowing but as you know if you take a photo in the dark your camera instinctively wants to use the flash to make it light. And when I turned off the flash and tried it all you could see was faint little spots of color. So instead I've included the photos from the Oriental Trading website so you can see exactly how they look in the dark. :-)
