Halloween not so big in the UK but we love it in our house. Myself and my 3 daughters love to dress up as witches and eat halloween cake pops !
The best costume I ever made for myself was an original “Kelly the Halloween Kitty” Beanie Baby back in the late 90’s when they were super popular. Unfortunately, my sewing skills left much to be desired, as evidenced by the trail of dry pinto beans I left in my wake the whole might!!

My favorite costume was a Cave Woman. A couple of girl’s that I worked with couldn’t come near me or hear my name because they couldn’t work for laughing. I had people from down the street coming into the lab to take pictures. It was so much fun. I have also been a man, half man half woman. I guess these are a few of my favorites.

I usually dress up as a witch for Halloween. I made a beautiful, fancy witch hat a few years ago and I have a black cape I made for my kids when they were little. It’s easy and fun.

My favorite part of fall is the baking and all the orange, pumpkins, hay, oh my! I LOVE to see candy corn and feel so festive about it, but I hate to admit that I’m not a fan of the flavor. I used to like Kit Kats but now prefer pumpkin-spiced lattes or desserts.
I love the classics, Snickers is my favorite on Halloween.
One year in college, I made myself a costume that looked like a package of Reese’s peanut butter cups. The box was a little big to get around at parties, but it was my best costume ever! Although I like pb cups to eat, my go-to treat is always a KitKat!
Reeces peanut butter cups
