EERIE LUMINARIAS, GHOSTING & MASON JAR LANTERNS!!

Sara over at Graphic Pretties came up with this idea and I thought you might like to start this as a Halloween tradition in your neighborhood…Sounds like fun to me and then maybe at Christmas time you could do a Secret Santa in the same fashion…

Have you heard of ghosting? We started ghosting in our neighborhood a few years ago and it has been started by someone every year since. If you have several children in your neighborhood they will really enjoy the fun!

Pick two neighbors to ghost...buy some treats and put them in a decorative bag or plastic pumpkin... at night sneak up and place the treats on the porch.. knock or ring the doorbell and RUN. place the ghosting letter and ghost picture along with the treats...this will provide them with the info they need to play along.

An Apple A Day!

Here's a handful of ideas to make use of autumn's abundance of apples..

Sprinkle thin slices of apple lightly with sugar, then saute in butter for 5 minutes, until golden...Fold into mashed potatoes.

Cut small cubes of apples and celery, then combine with walnut pieces...Toss with mayonnaise and season with chopped parsley, salt & pepper...This is a great salsd.

Substitute chopped apples for chopped celery in tuna salad..

Instead of lettuce, thinly slice apples on a turkey or ham sandwich..Top with mayonnaise or honey mustard.
