Tricks…but mostly treats

Halloween might look a little different this year but that doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy some spooky treats! I for one, love Halloween and all the fun food, scary movies, and candy. I’m sure a lot of families are deciding what is right for them…do you send your kids out to trick-or-treat or keep them home? Do you plan a small get-together with your closest friends or family to celebrate? Dress up and parade around the neighborhood? Whatever people decide to do, I hope they stay safe and healthy.

Game Day!

Are you ready for some football? Getting together with family and friends on the weekend is a fun and spirited way to celebrate fall while cheering on your favorite team. There are so many games to watch and plenty of creative food options to choose from. We are gearing up for the big Viking / Packer game this weekend so I wanted to share some of our favorite football snacks. These were a hit for past games so I’m sure there will be some repeats for the game this weekend! I am not someone who can pass up sweets so I started with the most important part…dessert 🙂 I made chocolate covered strawberries and chocolate covered Oreos that I decorated to look like little footballs. Both are super easy to make! Start by lining 2 baking sheets with wax paper (this helps with easy clean-up too). Then melt 1 package … Continue reading
