I really wish Hubs liked eating baked goods as much as I like making them, because he's got lots coming! I put together my Halloween box today and filled it with all sorts of yummy treats. Pinterest was a big help putting together this box..
 Another Pinterest find: Monster Mash. I got pretzels, candy corn, M&M's, Cheese-Its, Honey Nut Cheerios and tossed them in a big bowl! Super easy tummy treat and you can basically add what you want here.  | Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats were a Pinterest find! It's your basic Rice Krispie Treat recipe (I always add peanut butter) Add some red and yellow food coloring to the marshmallow when you take it off the heat. Then just ball them up, stick in a tootsie roll, and you've got a pumpkin:)  |
 Everybody do yourself a favor and go buy a box of these this fall! Delish! Yes, I sent my Hubs store-bought cookies, but they're totally worth it. And if I'm being honest- if I tried baking those from scratch they would have turned out purple tasting like cucumbers or something. I love to bake, but I avoid the flour and baking soda when I can ;) |  |
And there you have it, friends. One Halloween goodie box. There are lots of ways you could go with these. You could get every kind of Halloween candy and stick it in a homemade trick-or-treat bucket. (Fun project for the kids of you've got 'em.) You can send it after Halloween with lots of pictures of you and your kids in costume and some trick-or-treat candy that the kids wanted to share from their night. Also- I've got some orange Gatorade in there (orange for Halloween, of course,) but mostly because Gatorade is an inside joke for us that pretty much kicked off our relationship. So that being said, I encourage you all to add as many items that remind him of good times you had together as you can. A little inside joke, a ticket stub, a story in a letter, pictures of a vacation you guys took together- anything that brings him home for a second.
Happy Halloween, everybody!
