Happy Pumpkin day all! I couldn’t resist popping in to say HI ~ I’ve missed you all and share a few snapshots of today’s Halloween fun. So I have to ask ~ do you all think Halloween should be scary or be fun/cute/happy? We had this debate all week at work as I think it can be “Happy” (Happy Halloween) and doesn’t have to be scary….but, my co-workers and friends for that matter say….Scary all the way!
Although….I do have to confess that 2010 was my scariest Halloween yet…all the other years, were just like this year….corny, happy and fun!
Any guesses on what my costume was this year?!
I love that everyone in my office dressed up
Got a little corny….
And a little rowdy…..
Before we settled down for a delicious Halloween Feast…..
Complete with creepy wines…..
That were syphoned through a “blood” IV …or maybe it’s wine runs through our veins
Every year, we always think how fun it will be to carve pumpkins and I think it’s a great idea to make homemade pumpkin seeds….that is, until, I realize how much work it is to do it.
Can you guess who has the “Happy” Pumpkin and who made the “Scary” Pumpkin?
Yep ~ hers and his…..
But, honestly, you wouldn’t want to scare away our pumpkin family…..
Their too cute for that….Plus, their “scarecrow” pumpkin “scares” away any crows or something like that
I hope you all had a fabulous Halloween ~ I know we have had fun handing out candy to all the kiddos, our neighbors and friends.
This month I think I officially reached my maximum capacity for what I could fit into one day and blogging just didn’t happen ~ sorry I’ve been MIA! I am hoping November is a better month to balance things out as my days are just not the same when I can’t sit down each night to chat away with you. I have a bunch of recipes to share with you so you should see those coming up first!
QUESTION OF THE DAY:
Did you dress up for Halloween or make any fun Halloween foods?
Night all!

Glad to see you! I check every day 🙂 No dress up for me, but had fun at the office with everyone else! No special foods, just a bit more wine last night! I sure miss your weekly menu 🙂
Pam says
Yay!! So glad to see you back!! Looking forward to those promised recipes!
I’m all for the fun and cute Halloween, but I have raised 3 boys who love to jump out and scare each other any time of year, so they are in the scarier the better camp. Maybe it’s a gender thing?
Looking forward to more blogs as you are able to fit them in. Thanks for taking time to share your Halloween with all of us!

Happy Halloween! I think it should be scary/fun/goofy as long as everyone is having fun. I don’t think it should ever be too scarey for the kids if your event is kid-centered. We never dress up too scarey at work (college) because the daycare kids come trick-or-treating around to our offices and they are very young (16-months to 4 years). So our witches tend to be of the Glenda sort. 🙂

Is your little scarecrow family growing? Miss you Danica…..thought there was something wrong with my email because I was not receiving your post, but I see now that you have been very busy….can’t wait for the new recipes.
Fergie says
Danica…I was a Starbucks Barista too for Halloween. Great minds think alike! I couldn’t find a green apron so I used a tan one! Such a fun costume! I got tons of compliments! Where did you get your green apron? Glad to see your post!
Leiann says
Hi Danica-
I check to see if you have posted on you blog everyday. Glad to see you back. Loved your costume!
I made pumpkin cupcakes, left off the frosting to keep my points down. Husband loved them. Glad he did.
Can’t wait to see what you have in store for for the holiday season.
