Why Hello Stranger!

It's been so long since I've posted! We...ok ok, *I*...there was no "we" involved.... rescued a new puppy from some mean people at Walmart. That was almost 3 months ago. Isn't he adorable? He's sporting his Holy Cow collar by the fabulous Jennie B. Goode. His name is Pirate. (We already have Mama Poochins, whose name is Pearl a.k.a. The Black Pearl, so it was only fitting that we have a piratey name for this little guy!)


It's getting to be that time of year that I love...fall and Halloween! Now if only the weather would follow suit! There's lots of new things in my shops, because you know how much of a Halloween fanatic I am! Be sure to stop by and say "hey", I've missed you all!

I'm in the mood for......

HALLOWEEN!!!! :)

Not sure why, I just woke up this morning and it hit me...costumes, spooky, trick or treat...I can not wait! Time to start contemplating my costume for this year!

What are YOU gonna be?

Yummmmm.....candy corn!

Alright, if you haven't heard me say it before, I'll say it now...I'm a Halloween junkie. Yup! I love it. One of the things I love most about it is....Candy Corn!! So yesterday, I found myself in the right place at the right time, and I managed to snag a treasury. I don't have the patience to stalk these things, like some of the harder core treasury makers, I guess that makes me a lightweight, but I do enjoy making them when I get the opportunity.

So yesterday, for the first time, I managed to open my door and turn down the AC, and I thought, what better way to celebrate the upcoming fall season, than a treasury to honor *the* bestest fall candy, the candy corn? I just need a slight chill in the air. Unfortunately, I think that's a long time coming.

Now I know some of you are gagging, sitting here reading this, thinking "Eeeewww, what is she THINKING? That stuff is sooooooo gross!!" Let me just say, there is nothing better than taking a can of salted peanuts and mixing it with a bag of candy corn. MMMM...Tastes like that old candy with the roasted nuts on the outside and the white fluffy inside, and is the perfect blend of salty and sweet.
