I'm not a big fan of Halloween. There I've said it. Though I have gone to a few parties over the years, it's just not my thing. I hate dressing up in costume.

And the thought of going house to house begging for candy that will be either be given or thrown away because my children cannot possibly eat it all seems like such a waste to me.

Maybe it's because I'm not a big candy person in the first place. Our girls on the other hand LOVE Halloween or as they call it 'Spooky Season'. As they've gotten older trick or treating has been replaced with costume parties and bar hops; but it's still fun watching them get dressed up and have some fun. 

With Halloween looming around the corner, I thought I'd share some Halloween party food ideas with you.

    Thanks for the feature, Carrie! I only enjoy Halloween b/c Alex does so much. If it weren't for him, I'd be the grumpy lady inside the dark house hiding from trick or treaters. LOL

    Thanks so much for including my pumpkin martini! I rather like autumn a bit more than Halloween but they go together in a big wonderful orange season. 🙂
