And Then There Was One


It's totally your fault. Your kind comments regarding my Candy Corn Problem made me feel free and uninhibited in my gluttony. And I totally just ate that last one too.

But not to worry...

Because on Halloween, after a little of this

and a lot of this (yes, that is the Griswolds' house, and yes, my mother in all her wisdom gave them each a cupcake after Trick or Treating)

I have some of this

My refined palette only allows me to choose the good stuff.

PS. If I don't return emails today, it's because I have possibly slipped into a diabetic coma and the girls and dogs have taken control of the house.

PPS. I missed writing about Halloween yesterday because of the super terrific Silhouette Product Giveaway! Stop by and enter to win some neat products and get a 25% discount on all Silhouette Accessories!

  1. Isn't that what Grandma's are for? That is a hoot that she gave the girls a cupcake after the trick or treating. It at least has some flour in it right? Not all sugar. The girls looked so cute!

  2. Cuties! I use to love going through the kids Halloween loot! Glad you have a full jar again!

  3. The kids' Sunday School teacher gave them each an enormous cupcake with about 2 inches of frosting! There was no way I was letting them eat it along with their 1/2 lb of candy (see today's post), so I put them in the freezer for another time.
    Your girls looked so cute!

  4. No comas, please. We like you too much to lose you. :)

    What adorable trick-or-treaters your girls were! No wonder they got a big haul!

  5. I can keep away from the Candy Corn, the chocolate, however, is a completely different story!! Mine isn't in a cute glass pumpkin though, it is safely hidden in my sock drawer!!

  6. Your little Dorothy is so cute! Well they both are of course, but love seeing such a non-typical costume! :)

    We actually went out and bought some 50% off candy yesterday! :P We ran out and I *needed* some bite-sized junk! *lol*

  7. I loved all the Dorothy costumes this year! I think they're so cute!

    Looks like a great time and I wish I had candy to show for it, too! (However, it would surely be gone by now...)

  8. I love the costumes! Both are so cute!!

    I caved and refilled my pumpkin jar with candy corn. It's only a matter of time before it's gone. I'm glad that it will be out of the stores soon!

  10. You are cracking me up as usual! Your girls are so adorable. I'm glad I don't like candy corn - too bad I LOVE chocolate, though.

  11. You're so funny. I always love your posts! The costumes are great. I remember my grandma used to give us donuts on halloween, much to my mom's dismay. I always loved it though (:

  12. What cute pictures of the girls! So sweet! I am totally jealous that Michaela Byrd toted a basket with Toto. E refused! They look adorable! I'm with ya on the good candy too. If it doesn't contain chocolate, I don't bother. Although, candy corn would be the exception to the rule.

  13. I had to laugh because I was sitting here eating the last of the candy corn when I was reading your post. I might be slipping into a coma any minute, myself...or at least a bad sugar crash. Ha.

    Love that your mom gave them cupcakes, just in case they didn't get enough sugar... :-)

  14. Your girls are too cute! You all must still be riding that sugar high!

  16. Awww the girls looked SO cute!!!! There has been way too much sugar consumption around here the past couple days. haha!

  17. This post made me smile. One, because I had a seriously similar costume to your littlest as a kiddo. Two, because of your candy and refined palette. I had to take all the leftovers to work to get it away from me - I have no willpower. And, candy corn? Forget about it. I'd eat a bag by myself in one sitting. Okay, I've totally done it.

  18. Hahahaha ...Candy Corn BINGE! Surprisingly - there weren't any candy corns around our house this year. The trick-or-treaters are lucky I remembered to get any candy at all before the big night!

  20. Your girls are too cute in their costumes! I love the Dorothy outfit and the cute ruby slippers:) My mom let my boys eat a TON of candy after they got back from trick or treating!

I love to hear your feedback! Please feel free to leave comments...just don't send me spam asking me to buy stuff off your website! I've got three kids and no money to purchase your magic weight-loss pill or bust enhancement, or whatever else you might be selling. Thanks, and I look forward to hearing from you! :)
