Fall meals at home
How about a simple spaghetti dinner?
I made the meat sauce using ground turkey instead of ground beef to make it more healthy.
We also had a nice green salad...made with fresh spinach, pears, sliced almonds, craisins and a few raspberries. For the centerpiece I used a small pumpkin and put it under a glass dome.
He is just my favorite decoration.
Enjoy the fall days and nights...make your meals a little more special.

Halloween Treats and Decorating Ideas
How about this cute Bat lamp!! You can find directions hereWe also learned about some important health tid bits from Michelle who also happens to be a nurse on how to combat our families from getting the flu.
WASH YOUR HANDS. SNEEZE INTO YOUR ELBOW.
Those green balls fell from a tree in the park and I added some fake spiders to make it creepy!
Sandi made these cute "crackers" (Martha Stewart) filled with Halloween Kisses.
Allison made these adorable Marshmallow mummies with marshmallows and fruit roll-up. Are they just so cute or what!
Rainie also got recipes from Bakerella on how to make "cake pops" that look like mummies. They turned out perfect!
I hung up one of my lime green Halloween banners that I made and we placed the jar of "Brains" (cauliflower in tinted water) and the Pasta Skeletons on my side board.
Bug Stew!! (Martha Stewart) Sandi also brought this cool "bug stew" that she made. Using a witches cauldron and reindeer moss, white pipe cleaners, bugs and spiders glued and glittered! It was amazing.
Another fabulous idea from Sandi and Martha Stewart. Twigs from her yard painted black and then you make the paper ornaments from a pattern on Martha Stewart.
Service Idea for families: Secretly leave a treat and this poem that asks them to do the same thing...secretly pass on some special treats to someone else and so on and so on..... So fun to do with your kids and this allows them to think of someone else through the Halloween holiday instead of just what they will be getting.

Green and Black Halloween Banner and Orange and Black Halloween Banner
I had the cardboard letters but they had a burgandy calico print on them so I painted them black and then added the glitter to make them really sparkle!
So fun!

Fun stuff huh!

Once again I repurposed my grandma's old, broken, gold jewelry and just added touches of it here and there.

Fall stacked cake plates inspired by Matthew Mead and Pottery Barn

Then I found this idea in an old 2006 Matthew Mead Christmas magazine and thought to myself...."Self...you can do this with newspaper!!"
I used newspaper but you could use any kind of paper...construction paper, scrapbook paper, Tissue paper, even butcher paper!! Decide what kind of a trim you want whether is be a scalloped edge or maybe even a triangle edge...whatever your heart desires.After I cut the newspaper into scallops and punched holes in each scallop with a hole puncher, I attached it the edge of the cake plate with Hot glue!! It comes off really easy after you done..it just peels off.
Using what you have and making it new again!!
You could use this idea for any Holiday or birthday!
