Happy Halloween

I am not a huge fan of Halloween. Creepy, scary things are not my style. I tend to avoid scary movies. (Although I've been watching a lot of Supernatural on Netflix lately... very unusual for me.)

However, I love Fall. And little kids in cute costumes. And baking. And creating.

So I did a tiny bit of "celebrating" this year...

[caption id="" align="aligncenter" width="500"] I made "zombie brownies" (brownie mix with added Andes mint pieces and zombie-colored sprinkles), bought some candy to pass out (just in case), and more leaves![/caption]

Have a safe Halloween all--especially those on the East coast affected by Sandy!
