We also have been getting ready for fall festivals and classroom parties. It is a beutiful time of year, but I think this is just the calm before the storm. I suppose this is preparing us for the next two very busy months to come!
As I sat down exhausted Friday night...October 25th...I looked at my husband and said, "Two months from tonight and it will all be over!" It's not that I don't look forward to the fun that is ahead, but I do have a small amount of dread as we get ready for all the excitement and exhaustion to come.
I did want to share a few of our favorite fall treats before we start talking tinsel and lights. The girls and I have made some fun things in the past and some of our favorites are linked below. We tried something new this year. I had seen an email about making these cupcakes in red for apples, but I thought why not try them in orange for pumpkins. They turned our super cute! I hope your family enjoys and I hope you get some rest this weekend because the first of November begins the countdown :)
Frost your cupcakes with orange tinted icing and then roll in orange sugar sprinkles. Stick a pretzel in the top and voila...perfect and pretty pumpkins! (Making orange sprinkles is easy with regular table sugar and a few drops of red and yellow food-coloring. Stir and within seconds you have orange sugar.)
