Our Pumpkins!

This year was the worst weather for trick or treat.  It was cold, rainy, and SO windy. Robb and I carved pumpkins while we waited and waited and waited for kids to come.  We only had 20. 

Robb carved a really good trick or treat ghost,candy I carved a cat standing on a creepy guy's head. This is the only picture I have, as the candles wouldn't stay lit, and in the morning, my cat was blown in and broken. :0( 

All These Years Later...

...There's still some "firsts" in our lives! 

Saturday we took a break from our kitchen renovation and went to our first haunted house! After a nice relaxing dinner at one of our favorite restaurants, Pranzo, we got a little adventurous and went to a haunted house! It was pretty scary! Just like I remembered.  The worst part was that the creatures followed my and kept breathing on my neck.  I didn't like that!

Here we are, after making it through all three rooms, pretending to be zombies. (I was, at least. I don't know what Robb was doing)

This is supposed to be our normal picture, but I'm pretty sure Robb didn't get that.

When we got home, I was so inspired by all the undead that I made Robb into a zombie!

Ok, I got carried away and made Rugby into a zombie cat, too!

Vegan, Gluten Free, No Sugar Cookies- I'm Impressed!

I didn't think this recipe would work. Vegan, no sugar, no flour...what?!? I am pleasantly surprised that not only did they bake up just fine and held their shape, but they taste delicious. Only 87 calories a cookie! (Ok mine are probably more like 100 calories a cookie because I couldn't resist adding mini chocolate chips. The recipe didn't call for this, so there is some added sugar in mine, but it's in the form of chocolate! Also made them not vegan due to the milk in the chips :0)

Try them for a dose of good fats that will satisfy your sweet tooth while keeping you healthy.

Doesn't this remind you of my Doodle?!

Why I Like To Work From Home...

Need I say more. 

Carchia

I even spelled my name, and this is what I got. Carchia. But my Iced Skinny Caramel Macchiato was incredible!
