Halloween Fun!

 

(I adore this movie and its soundtrack! And how cool is this light design?)

We had a Halloween party at the house this year! It was fun! Naturally, everyone had to wear a costume! Here are all the housemates!

C

Beth, the witch, Kristin, some rocker guy's girlfriend- I can't remember haha! 

Me, Hobbes, Hope, a lady pirate, and Cailin, Daphne from Scooby-Doo.

Dustin and I had planned our Calvin and Hobbes costume for last Halloween, but then realized we didn't have an occasion to wear them! So, it was great that we could use them this year!

 

For those not familiar with the comic, here's a comparison!

Lindsay and Ariel showed up at the Mozarts, so we felt compelled to take a "couples" picture! haha

 

I found a recipe on The Sweet Adventures of Sugar Belle weeks back that I'd been wanting to try! They were the cutest little candy corn cookies, so I figured I'd make them for our party! They were a multi-step process, but pretty easy to do! The recipe and directions can be found here.

I thought the dough looked a lot like bacon! haha. But this was after layering the dough in the bread pan and letting it chill. I think if I make these again I'd almost double the recipe. I didn't have enough dough to make each layer prominent enough for my liking!

 

Cut them and bake them

 And to finish them off and make them truly look like candy corns, you dip them in yellow chocolate melts! Yummy!

Adelphian Tradition on 10/31: Wear your costume to choir! Yay folks who dressed up!

 

It was fun being in a house this year and having some cute little trick-or-treaters! Ah, the childhood memories! Love it!

Happy Halloween, everyone! Now onto November and Turkey Time! =)
