It's That Time of Year!
I've been hopping on the computer on and off all
morning as we run around finishing up projects for this year's halloween
bash...one more room to decorate and we should be getting close. Ghost pops are
done (white chocolate coated pears), two jello brains are chilling in the
fridge, a few batches of puff pastry bones are dusted with confectioner's sugar,
and all the halloween cupcakes are out and ready to party. On the savory side,
there will be blue corn chips with our green zebra salsa, orange popcorn, and
some dry-ice carbonated punch. I'll post pics of the festivities, as well as of
E's surprise birthday gift(s)!
tomorrow.We spent last week on the
Cape for K's wedding - Gi ended up being a great flower girl, and all the
cupcakes and sugar-paste leaves made it from NJ to MA without incident. K and
her sisters met up with us in Salem, where we walked around all day Sunday and
stayed over before driving back to Jersey. Salem, MA on Halloween weekend is
crazy, but in a good way. We went to a historical reenactment of the witch
trials and a ghost tour given by the historical society that night. In between
we browsed through an entire city composed of halloween stores - E loved it!
