Halloween is an exciting time for children, filled with treats, costumes, and fun. But, there is some serious safety risk when it comes to trick or treating on Haloween night. It’s important for both parents and adults accompanying children as well as those handing out candy or driving to keep on mind certain safety tips. So, let’s make sure they have a safe and fun holiday. By following these 5 Halloween safety tips.

Sometimes life gets busy, and you forget to plan out your Halloween costume. And, there’s not a lot to choose from at your local Halloween stores. Luckily, there are lots of last-minute Halloween costumes that are easy to throw together.  So I put together a list of 5 that you can throw together with things from your closet and a quick trip to the craft store. These crafted costumes will be a hit at any party, or just something simple to wear while you’re handing out candy. So, get out your hot glue gun and scissors and try crafting one of these last-minute Halloween costumes.

My solo trip to Chicago was full of good food and a lot of walking around the city seeing some of its landmarks. And it ended with me spending time with my little sister and I saw one of my favorite band’s 10th-anniversary show. This wasn’t my first time visiting Chicago, but my first time getting to explore and see the city. So here’s how my solo trip to Chicago went and what I saw and ate.

It’s that time of the year again where little bits of pumpkin make their way into almost everything you eat. So there’s no better time to share these vegan pumpkin apple muffins. I’ve never been crazy about breakfast and usually skip or grab a muffin and head out the door. So with it being that pumpkin-everything time of the year, I decided to go with the flow and make pumpkin muffins instead of my usually blueberry. But, instead of doing plain pumpkin muffins I decided to mix in fruit that was in season and mixed in some Honeycrisp apples. While I was baking them my whole house smelled like fall and I couldn’t wait to enjoy them with a cup of pumpkin spice tea. Not only did they smell good, but they tasted delicious too. Soft, tender, and the apple adds an extra layer of flavor. So, this year I’ll be stocking up on pumpkin puree so I can enjoy these delicious muffins throughout the year.
