The Thursday Thirteen – 10/23/2014

Halloween is only a little over a week away. How excited are you? Better question; how excited am I? Super duper, over the moon, jumping up and down in absolute glee kind of happy! So imagine just how ecstatic I’d be if B.O.B. Bob and I were parents to actual “real” children, and not just a psychotic kitty cat. How do you think we’d celebrate the big day then? Perhaps with a few of these insanely whimsical and absolutely charming ideas.

1

I’ve lost my heart to this Pumpkin Cookie Monster from Hallmark Channel.

I haven’t had a candy apple since I was a child, but these Spooky Black Caramel Apples from Baked by Rachel make me want to remedy that as soon as possible. Added bonus; black tongue.

I will never get tired of candy eyes; they just make me so happy. These Gooey Monster Cookies from Lil’ Luna are the perfect way to put them to good use.

I totally want to make these Ghosts in Mason Jars from Mason Jar Crafts Love, and I’m not even a kid.

I so want to make these Monster Donuts from ThriftyFun for work on Halloween, but I’m a little concerned that they might think I’ve finally lost my mind. Wouldn’t it be fun to see everyone wearing fangs around the office all day?

So I may totally loathe the movie “Frozen” and its horrendously ear damaging tunes, but I still think that this Frozen Elsa Pumpkin from A Pumpkin And A Princess is totally adorable.

Even the grownups will be happy to drink this Magic Potion Punch from Bitz & Giggles, but adding a touch of liquor will only add to the happiness.

Brenna and I have a date to make this Kitten Pumpkin from All You. B.O.B. Bob can even join in the fun by spray-painting the pumpkins for us, because Brenna plus spray paint equals a big ol’ mess.
