Menu Monday

Hi everybody!  Happy Monday and Happy Cooler Weather!  It was in the 50s here this morning and feels SOOOO GOOD!

This weekend was full of fun!  We celebrated Halloween at our friends' house, and as usual, had a blast.

Lynn and Tuller had the place decked out and the front door blocked off with caution tape.  It was enter at your own risk through the back.

The weather was perfect and we snacked on finger goods that included hummus w/ peppers (a new group favorite), artichoke dip, summer salsa, buffalo chicken dip, chicken wings and tenders as well as pumpkin bars (recipe coming tomorrow).


PUMPKIN PIE BARS


OBP for those who could drink - it did look delicious!

As far as the costumes were concerned; Mike and I went as "The Bellies".  He was Beer Belly and I was Baby Belly.  They were both a hit and very inexpensive to make (double win!).

We also had a skeleton family (including Reef the dog pictured below), JD the Beer Vendor, Wonder Woman and a nod to Napoleon Dynamite.

Even despite a poor football showing for both the Badgers and Gators we had a blast getting dressed up.
