Heaven & Hell - Our Halloween Party 

Monday, October 31, 2011 -
Hubs and I had a great time entertaining friends this past weekend by hosting our annual Halloween party.  This year's theme, as you may remember, was Heaven & Hell.

The hosts for the evening!
Our second floor (living room, kitchen, and dining room) was Heaven.  Complete with candle light, cloud seating, and heavenly treats.  Champagne punch had people sipping sparkles while holy water kept others in high spirits. 





You may recognize the nun?  Of course, she is my mother!  Yup, mom and dad came and surprised us with two of their good friend, Pete & Debbi.  When I say surprised us, that means they drove from Wisconsin for the evening!  Thanks for coming mom and dad!  You definitely surprised us!

Our first floor and garage was hell for the evening.  Spicy treats included jalapeno poppers, buffalo dip, spicy shrimp and other hot candies.  In addition, hubs home brewed pumpkin ale and my hard cider were flowing.  I have to post photos of hubs pumpkin tap later - it is a treat you won't want to miss!




We have some great friends who came out.  Sad to see others didn't make it, but a good time was surely had by all those who did!

Happy Halloween!

Halloween Theme...It is Here! 

Sunday, September 4, 2011 -
I began this blog back in the day to showcase cooking, events and entertaining myself through every day events.  I think every day is a celebration, so when there really is a holiday or celebration, I love to celebrate it a bit more. 

Halloween is one of my favorites.

Last year, we had a Tim Burton inspired get together.  I personally loved decorating the house with each room having its own movie theme.  Hubs and I dressed up as Alice and the Mad Hatter.  The year before was a Clue theme, complete with a murder-mystery game.  Mr. Green and Mrs. Peacock were our characters that year. 

You see, the theme isn't just a theme, it is also the costume.

This year, after going back and forth on a variety of options, hubs and I finally landed on our theme.

Heaven and Hell. The classic battle between good and evil, angels and demons.  Evil villians, angelic princesses (of course, my Disney reference of the day) or anything in between.  The options for costumes are endless.  And I know hubs and I will have a great time transforming our house into a classic heaven vs. hell venue.

Let the fun begin!
