Random Thoughts And Other Things – 5

Halloween has taken over the internet! I have to be honest, I have always had a love/hate relationship with Halloween. Don't get me wrong, I loved the dressing up, candy and home-made spooky treats!

Slow Cooker Winner Winner Chicken Dinner

When it starts to get cool, I always felt it was time to dust my trusted slow cooker off.

Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

This week is all about Halloween!

Spiced Rum Christmas Cake

Today is October 1st and that means 2 things in my world. First, and most importantly at least in my eyes, there are only 26 more days until I turn 43 and get to eat my ice cream cake from Dairy Queen with extra fudge in the middle but noooo crumble that will choke me. … Continue reading Spiced Rum Christmas Cake
