I'm sorry it's been way to long since I've posted... but trust me I've been thinking about Halloween!
The air is chilly.
Tonight I bought the first pumpkin of the year.
And at the grocery store tonight I bought apple cider.
Yippee it's Fall!
Also while at the grocery store on a whim I bought some black and orange straws from the Halloween isle.
When I came home I used some paper punches and made these fun straws for the apple cider.

Use non-toxic glue to stick the paper punches to the straws. Wouldn't these be fun for a party!

Then I thought the cider needed a little something too- an "eye of newt" eyeball to float in the glass.

I made it by cutting a circle out of an apple and peeling all the skin off except a little bit right in the middle- I left that to make a red pupil. It bobs in the glass nicely and doesn't throw off the taste of the cider at all since it's just a piece of apple!

Cute! I think of you every time I head down the Halloween aisle at Michael's, JoAnn's, Hobby Lobby, etc. etc. etc. !!!
LOL- thanks, thats very sweet!!! I think my local Michael's probably has me pegged as "someone to watch" since I travel down the Halloween isle on a regular basis just basking in the thrill of it all! : )
