While searching for the perfect Halloween costume for my son, I came across this website which featured images that were created for a movie theater opening in Brazil! My eyes welted with inspiration as I marveled the pure genius and attention to detail that each costume welcomed. Consider this my personal challenge to all the parents out there:
Beat this.
If not in creativity, then in craft. Let’s make Halloween fun (and not just another excuse for teenage girls to dress provocatively)!
Here are a few resources to get you started….

You’re on your own with this one. If it was me I would be hitting up the arts and crafts store!
In the fall as cold weather approaches, I always tend to cook more comfort food. And I bet if we were playing Family Feud and had to name a comfort food, chicken pot pie would be in the top five. I found this recipe last week and boy is a a keeper. Quick, super easy to make and really delicious.
Chicken Pot Pie Cupcakes Recipe
Ingredients
2 cups of cooked chicken breasts diced
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup frozen mixed veggies
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 tablespoon of dried thyme
1/2 tablespoon of dried basil
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic salt
2 (10 oz) cans Pillsbury biscuits
Directions
Preheat your oven to 400.
In a large bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen veggies, cheese, herbs and spices.
Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin and place the Pillsbury biscuits into each cup, pressing into the bottom and up the sides.
Evenly spoon the pot pie mixture into each biscuit cup. Slide into the oven and bake for about 15 minutes. Check at the 12 minute mark.
