Happy October!

I can't believe it is already October. Generally when I make pancakes its usually in the shape of Mickey for A, but this past weekend, I decided to make some pumpkins instead.

This kiddos seemed to like it.

I took out the wreath I made last year to hang and it still looks the same so that is great news.  Candy corn does last (well, at least for a year).  I'll let you know if it survives another. Click on the links below for the how-tos.

Here are some other things you can make to celebrate the month of October.

 Mummy Pizza

 Owl Smores

Owl Mooncakes

Owl Cupcakes

I know, there are a lot owl projects.  I just think they are so cute.  Don't you?  I'm so excited that Fall is finally here.  I'm in the mood for some caramel apples.  I don't believe my kids have ever tried any so I'll be excited to see their faces when they bite into one.  I'll have to pick up some apples to make some!

Owl Smores

I ran across these Owl Smores on Living Locurto and had to make them. It was so easy. My kids loved assembling them.

Ingredients

• graham crackers
• marshmallows
• chocolate chips
• yellow candy melts
• candy corn

Directions

1. Cut one marshmallow in half and place both pieces on a graham cracker.
2. Put a candy melt on top of the marshmallows.
3. Heat in the microwave for about 5-7 seconds, just enough to make the marshmallows puff up, but not get too hot.
4. Take out of microwave and add a chocolate chip on the yellow candy melt and the candy corn beak while the marshmallows and candy are still warm. Everything should stick together nicely.
