Diane the lurkers Halloween Secret........

By -


Diane says if you mix peanuts with candy corn it tastes like a Payday candy bar or a Pearson's Nutroll (minnesota fame). It really does. Warning: addicting. These little treat bags will be the trick eh?

I love winning yarn. I've been following http://wiknit.blogspot.com/ for the very latest in contests. Great source to share with you!

My LYS 3 Bags Full is having their fall yarn sale. Lots of good yarns still left. I found a bargain for a Rowan New Shapes pattern book. 1/2 off :). Thanks Debbi for pointing it out to me. There are some biggy knits vests that I want to knit now.

I'm enjoying all your blogs with their Halloween posts. Such a sweet and silly time of year. My Hungarian side hates to admit it is a Celtic tradition in origin.

An autumn-y thing that we do is spread a 1/4" layer of cream cheese on a salad plate, then pour on a thin (or thick if you're like me) layer of caramel ice cream topping. Slice up some apples and use the apples to dip the cream cheese/caramel. Fabulous - easy-to-eat caramel apples. :)

As soon as you mentioned it, I thought, "Yes, that would taste exactly like a Payday." Clever idea!

I love your pumpkin in the middle - is it a candle? Very cute!

WOW! Lucky you... I see a stash growing ;-)

The kids would love it for sure, but here they are eating gingernuts at the moment. They really love it, so I am going to make them myself soon as well. Addicting too...I'll send you the recipe soon.

Every Once in a While I Might Post

 Is that vague enough for you?  It has been a too busy complicated Spring.  I had no energy to blog.  All is well now, so I can share some things with you:   1. When I shoot photos of the moon I think of Dear Teresa.  Gone too soon. She took fabulous moon pictures.  2. I did not see one shooting star last night.  I only got up for a few moments around 3 a.m.  The local weather guy said he saw a few quick faint ones.   3. How can I can have one grown child in Oklahoma under flood watch, and One Child in Mexico under hurricane watch?  On the same day.  Tis true.  4. What have I knitted lately?  I am pretty sure I've ripped more than I've knit.  I ripped out a shawl that I was making up.  It was cotton and pretty.  I need to follow a pattern.  5. I was trying to make socks and decided to make mittens instead.  I haven't worked a thumb in a long time.  I may have to frog it too.  So I ha...

Dear buddy nurse and spay neuter pal Linda, came to visit yesterday.  We knitted. We laughed.  We shared books we are reading. She Showed me her scarf.  It looks like a shawl but it is a scarf. Here is her yarn choice. And the( OUCH) price.   It makes her happy to knit.  If Linda's happy I'm happy.  I dont' know the pattern and neither does she.  Her dog literally shredded her pattern.  She was at a point where she had memorized the easy part and she's nearly finished.  So there you go, anyone know the pattern? You are all so sweet about the move and the house. This morning I got my cuppa joe and headed to the porch to write you.  In the distance, my nearest neighbor, whom I can see through some trees.... well one of their teens came out, stretched, peed on their lawn casually, and then laid in his hammock for 5 minutes.  I'm sure he's not the first boy to do this.  I'm not even sure he's the...
