Here is a fun treat to make for teachers, neighbors or to use in your decorating! It would look great in an office too! Sidenote: This post should be titled, “the pumpkin patch post that got away.” I swear I posted this weeks ago! I went to link it up to a party and 30 [Read more…]
I used to have an addiction to candy corn.. but only for the month of October. But, after an extended stomach issue 2 years ago I have avoided candy corn. Yep, it only a $14,000 medical bill (ER visit and high deductible) to convince me to re-evaluate my diet. Anyway, this post is not about my [Read more…]
Um… this was a photo of my son that was snapped while on fall break in Beaver Creek. Now when I think of Beaver Creek I think Banana Republic or JCrew attire. My first thought when I viewed the text photo on my phone: “He looks like a terrorist” My {first} husband replied, “Where did [Read more…]

I made some tweaks, not twerks, on her original recipe because, as she warned, we popped those into our mouths quicker than M&M’s. She warned us! So I decided [Read more…]

It had really dusty, aged decor picks and once I got home I realized it had a musty smell. Yuck! [Read more…]
Yes, this is a photo of a cake! Clearly the photo of the cake suggests something went terribly wrong in the kitchen at I’m Not a Trophy Wife. I snagged this 3 INGREDIENTS pumpkin spice cookie recipe at Jen’s blog, Tatertots & Jello. My photo shows a cake. It is suppose to be a [Read more…]
I grabbed this book, The Betty Crocker Halloween Cookbook, when I saw it on display at our local library. I love flipping through cookbooks at the end of the day with my little sticky post-its for my favorites. I will admit that I gravitated towards this recipe because I had all of the ingredients! Yes!

We are in puppy heaven right now with a 16 week old Bernese Mountain puppy, Chloe! Of course, during the crate and potty training we nicknamed her Cujo (1990’s movie reference.. or was it the 1980’s) and Crazy Eyes (from Orange is the New Black). But, look at this precious face during the day! We are [Read more…]
