Halloween 2012


I don't think I ever blogged about our Halloween this year.  Caius was 8.5 months old for his first Halloween.  Our neighbor and friend, Lauren made our costumes with the help of her mother.  The girls are M & M's and Caius was a M & M Fun Size Bag.  We had a blast trick or treating in our neighborhood with our friends.  It was cold so Caius went in early and hung out with my parents.

Meal Plan

Chorizo Balls with Roasted Whipped Carrots and Sour Kraut

Butternut Squash Soup

Sweet Potato Jalepeno Chowder (my friend gave me this recipe)

Pumpkin Cocoa Chili

Beef Taco Salad with Avocado Dressing (this is on pinterest and I made it yesterday with our fish tacos...soooo good!  I subbed coconut milk instead of yogurt).


I made truffles this weekend too.  I sort of used this recipe:

I had to add some honey & coconut milk because the chocolate I had was not sweetened at all.  They were a delicious treat and definitely confirmed that I still have little to no self control with chocolate.  That is why I don't keep it in the house.

I also made some muffins for the kids that they actually liked.  I kind of used this recipe
