Spooky Brunch

This Sunday Mom, Susie, Sarah, and Nathan came over for a spooky brunch. (Of course Raf was here too.) Mom and I made lots of spooky food. It was really fun and delicious. Here is most of the food: Fuzzy pink heads (made by Sarah), jalapeno corn muffins with faces, meringue ghosts, veggie skeleton, and guacamole salad.Graveyard dirt cups. Mom made the grave stones. So cute.
Mango punch with orange sherbet and a frozen orange ring. :) We also had jack-o-lantern mac and cheese, seven deadly sins dip, salty bones bread sticks, mummy dogs, and a pumpkin jello mold. I love these jack-o-lantern lights that Sarah found for me:

Nightmares

I keep having nightmares and not in a good way. Unfortunately, they're nothing like this:
Does anyone have suggestions for getting rid of/avoiding them?

My First Ebay Purchases

Shopping on ebay is more fun than I thought it would be. I think I'm going to do it more often now. I just don't like the really competitive part. Sometimes I lose at the very end. :( But these things were easy and fun to win!

I really like my new Fiestaware teapot! Periwinkle is a discontinued color so I was really excited to get it. I love the cover and the round handle. Now I'm going to have a tea party! :)

As you probably already know, I like jello molds. I was excited to win this vintage Tupperware jello mold. I can't wait to try it out!
Ebay is great for finding good prices on video games. This game came last weekend and it's kind of bizarre but super fun! I can't get over how cool the wii is.
I also have Mercury Meltdown Revolution coming! I'm so excited! I love puzzle games.
I also want to get Wario Land Shake-it and Super Mario Galaxy. I'll let you know what else I win on ebay! :)

Like Christmas Lights

I love how color Christmas lights make such a nice glow, but I decided they would be to "college-y" for my apartment now. I think this would be such a cool alternative:
I would love to try it if/when I own my home someday. I bet Rafael, the electrical engineer, could totally help me with it. :) Don't you just love arched doorways?

He won!


Mom got a home run:

It's really fun! yayayay!

Apple Crisp

I got some cool new baking dishes at the Crate & Barrel outlet in Kittery this weekend. Mom and I made apple crisp in one this weekend. I love apple crisp and so does Mom and especially Rafael. Here it is before we cooked it:
And after!It came out really well! I love the new dishes! I also got a small one and a rectangular one. I hope Raf's ready for some casseroles! :)
