Eye love Halloween

If you didn't catch Em's comment, she had a great healthful Halloween treat - sugar-free Kool-Aid (10/$1) paired with dum-dums or Halloween pencils. Great idea! A whole pitcher of Kool-Aid would last longer than a bite of Snickers anyway...

Derrick gets credit for the next Halloween treat whether he wants it or not... Halloween buckeye "eyes" - see picture. I made a quick, easy recipe for Buckeyes (click for recipe) then dipped them in white chocolate and topped with a dark chocolate M&M iris. I'm sending them to his office tomorrow. They're rich, but so yummy! Kind of like eyeball bon bons. I'm sure you could add small blood vessels with red icing, I've seen that on eye cupcakes before... but it's more disturbing than cute to me.

Let me know if any of you are dressing up for the holiday. I think Red Riding Hood may have been my last costume for a while... and that was TWO years ago! Where does the time go?!
