The nights are longer, the weather is colder, and All Hallow’s Eve is on its way. There may be ghouls and ghosts and witches roaming the streets, but in this house, there are Superheroes. Three Superheroes to be exact, and of course, Superheroes should dress the part, with rippling muscles, leotards with leggings, and capes. […]
The mom who requires all the chores be done before the childen can have the (updated daily) wifi password to get online: The dad who had enough of his daughter wearing Daisy Dukes so decided to give her a taste of her own medicine: The mom who sold her daughter’s and friends’ One Direction tickets […]
I participated in a campaign on behalf of Mom Central Consulting for Stride Rite. I received products to facilitate my review and thank me for my participation. We gave my son the option for a Halloween costume this year. Jedi or Sith? Of course he was supposed to choose Jedi (even though he doesn’t fully […]
Those shoes are so cute! Definitely perfect for his costume 🙂
I thought the bottoms did look like spiders before I even read that. Stride Rites shoes are fabulous, love that they paired with Halloween!
That is such an adorable Darth Vader. I love the shoes too!
NOW those are some Shoes!!!! I love the bottoms of them super cute. Now my sister loves Star Wars lol so she will be jealous and will think she needs some even though she all grown up 😉
I love those shoes! They’re so cute. I also love that while they ARE commercialized, they are not over done!
My son would seriously flip over those. He loves Star Wars and light up shoes.
My kids LOVE light up shoes too. My son is going to be a superhero for Halloween and will wear his Stride Rite light up shoes. He is SO excited. 🙂
My daughter is dressing as a cat.
I love the Jedi shoes! They are very cool.
Those shoes are so neat. I have a little boy who would love to have a pair.
Love those shoes. They are perfect for Halloween!
These shoes go perfect with a Star Wars costume! I love that they light up too.
I love how they light up. Not the norm more like a light saber!!
Those are adorable! Shoes are one of the hardest things to buy with costumes because often times they hurt your feet.
Just about any little boy would love these shoes!
Those shoes are totally cute and I bet my son would love these.
I love these shoes and how they just finish off the costume perfectly.
I always loved the beauty of individually served appetizers and desserts, such as french onion soup, chocolate souffle, mini apple pies and chicken pot pies. Beautifully presented in colorful mini-cocottes, these delicious foods are made all the more appetizing. Of course I have to do this for my family, so with my four cherry red […]
Those are ADORABLE!!!!! I love individual servings of dishes. I bet Shepherd’s Pie would be awesome for these as well! 🙂
I’d have to add some vanilla ice cream in there somewhere!!
That looks absolutely delicious, and I love the red mini cocottes. 🙂
I LOVE these! They look delicious and are so cute. I’ll definitely need to put the mini-cocottes on my holiday wish list. 🙂
There’s something about “mini” versions that are so much more appealing than a big hunk of anything! There also great for portion control, especially during the holiday season 🙂
How cute are they! And those apple pies look so delicious!
They’re just darling little bowls of goodness! The cheery red color of the dishes is perfect too.
Oh those are not only adorable looking but they sound sooo good too!
These are so cute Penelope 🙂 iI love how you decorated them. I get so lazy when it comes to making them look extra pretty.
These look amazing! I’ve always wanted to buy those little mini cocottes, I just have to do it already!
I absolutely LOVE apple pie and I have those dishes in white. I may have to give this a try! Although I love streusal topping, so maybe I’ll do that.
These are adorable. They would be perfect to make for Thanksgiving.
I love them. So tiny and cute. I love everything even more in its miniature form LOL!
Le Creuset is the best of the best! This mini pie idea would definitely be a hit.
I love mini pies & guests always do as well.
Those are so cute! I HAD to pin them for later!
I love the size of these – they are perfect for satisfying a sweet tooth!
These look amazing!
These are so freaking adorable! We LOVE apple pie, so I’ll definitely be giving these a try!
These are so cute, and I love that everyone could have their own to themselves.
They came out perfectly!
I love Le Creuset. Thanks for sharing this recipe. It’s so cute and so much easier than slicing a pie.
These are so cute, what a fun treat for a dinner with family. My daughter would so love to make these.
I am a big fan of mini pies, they are so cute! I love how you did the crust.
the perfect amount of healthy sweet treat . We love apples here.
How cute are those mini apple pies!
These are perfectly tiny and they look so delicious!
This are not only adorable but I bet they taste soooo good.
They were awesome 🙂
I’ve used mine for chicken pot pies before … I love individual servings too. 🙂
These are darling and look SO good!! I am gonna have to make some!
I absolutely love that you didn’t add all that white sugar most apple pie recipes call for. These are too cute!
We don’t even have white sugar in the house, so if a recipe called for sugar I’d use the raw sugar we generally use 🙂
This post brought to you by Arby’s. All opinions are 100% mine. Today I told my husband we’d be trying out something new. A Smokehouse Brisket Sandwich, to be specific, available at Arby’s. He fist pumped and said “Yeah!”, so I knew he was on board. (trying out tasty new foods is always fun) We […]
I’ve loved Arbys for 25 years! I first was introduced when I was pregnant with my first child (who is now 25, OMG!!). I had the Arby’s Beef & Cheddar and fell in love. It is still my favorite sandwich!!
I love their Rueben Sandwiches. No one else in my house likes sauerkraut, so I get one whenever we go. This sandwich sounds really good though and I’d like to try it. I love a good brisket.
I love the curly fries and how the food always taste fresh
When I go to Arby’s and that’s often, I always get the Grand Turkey Club because I’m obsessed with it, but my boyfriend order this brisket sandwich last week when we went. He really, really liked it!
I’m not a fan of smoked meat, but I bet my husband would love this. Our Arby’s shut down and we have to drive over 30 mins to get to one now.
I wish we had an arby’s near by so we could try these. They look delish.
Wow, that sandwich looks delicious! I haven’t been to Arby’s in a while, I am going to have to go check it out!
Another reason why I love Arby’s! I have to try this sandwich soon.
We rarely eat fast food but I have to say we choose Arby’s quite a bit when we do. Their food always taste fresh and good! Oh yeah and the curly fries rock!
I love their curly fries!
I really like Arby’s and I have been wanting to try the new Brisket Sandwich it looks SO good! Glad you enjoyed it and had a good experience as well!!
Yummm! I love Arby’s and I don’t think I’ve ever had something there I didn’t like. This sandwich looks fantastic.
I don’t want to try it.. I kinda need to.. just to make sure that it’s delicious as it looks in these pictures 🙂 Love their fries!!
Oh yum! It’s been too long since we’ve all been to Arby’s.
Arby’s keeps coming out with sandwiches that I want to try.
I agree, it’s totally fun to try new things and that sandwich looks yummy.
That looks yummy and my husband would be on for that trip as well. I’ve always loved their curly fries.
Their jamocha shakes and curly fries are the best!
Oh, how I love me some brisket! I’ll definitely have to head over to Arby’s to check it out! Oh, and I LOVE Arby’s because their sandwiches are so good!
I wish one was closer. The nearest Arby’s is about an hour away now 🙁
My husband just had this the other day and said he really liked it.
My husband & I are both dying to try that! I think we’re going to hit Arby’s this weekend.
I craved Arby’s during my first pregnancy and have enjoyed both the food and the memories ever since. This new sandwich sounds tasty!
i love that the meat looks thicker than their other sandwiches i’d love to stop by and give it a try
I really need to get by there and try this sandwich, it looks so delicious!
Mmm this looks good!
This looks so tasty! I haven’t eaten at Arby’s in years.
I’m sad the Arby’s closest to use closed down..I think it’s a bank now.
I’ll have to try this the next time I stop in at Arby’s!
I’ve never tried the Smokehouse Brisket sandwich. It looks delish!
We’re heading to Arby’s soon to try this! My husband has mentioned it several times – I know he’ll love it. 🙂
I love too many things about arby’s! Their curly fries, milkshakes, and of course…the french dip sandwich! (My husband loves their chicken salad though!)
I have never been to Arby’s. My husband says it’s fantastic though!
My family loves Arby’s, Its a nice change from having burgers all the time
I go to Arby’s about once a month. I love their fries. I usually get the Cheddar and Roast Beef Sandwich off the dollar menu and curly fries.
I think you should be Katniss! I’ll probably be a kitty cat. My favorite!
Speaking of HAlloween Costumes, I still have to get my kids! I’ll check out Target this weekend.
I suck at costume ideas. I am sure whatever you choose will be great.
We just browsed Target’s Halloween selection yesterday afternoon. So much fun stuff and I was really impressed by the S’mores Candy Corn they carry.
I’m not dressing up, but my daughter is going to be a cat.
I love the craft sets too, my daughter is going to be a Dark Angel, my boys are too old.
Target has so many great options! Baby and I are planning on being matching bumblebees. 🙂
I’m sure you by now know how much I love Halloween by all my Halloween Posts and Target is my home away from home. They are my one stop shop for halloween.
I love shopping at Target. Not sure why I haven’t gotten by there to check out their Halloween stuff yet though, looks like they have a great selection.
We haven’t checked target for Halloween costumes but looks like they have a fabulous selection
I’m actually not dressing up for Halloween this year. I’m going to be making my kids costumes and I don’t have the time (or money) to make/buy one for me.
Haha looks like a fun trip!!! I can see him not wanting to be a bad piggy :-)!!! Too cute!
aww fun! 🙂 2 of my girls want to be witches and my pre-teen son just wants to go get candy and not get dressed up. lol The babies haven’t been told what they’re going to be yet 😉
Ha — was that friend me? 😉
I spend wayyyyy too much time in the Halloween aisle at Target each and every time I go
I love the glow stick in the bathtub idea! Too cute. My little dude is going to be a super hero too {Iron Man}. You should be Wonder Woman!
That’s the big question in our house. My daughter has decided on an angel. You could be that!
Halloween used to be my favorite holiday, but I personally think it’s more for the children now as I get older. So, I’m not planning to be anything, and I’m not sure if my son wants to go trick-or-treat this year or not. 🙂
It was!! ;-D
Halloween shopping is so fun 😀
I have no costume plans for myself for Halloween. I just want to be comfortable! 🙂 My kids are all pirates this year, though.
I never dress up for Halloween no more, bummer! Sadly, I haven’t even started shopping for y kids yet, I’m SO behind on everything lol.
I’m going to be Wonderwoman! I have a tee shirt with a little cape attached, and my husband has a Batman tee shirt with a cape attached. Super simple, silly kind-of costumes 🙂
Ok, that is COOL!
I’m still not sure of what I’m going to be while taking Sweet Baby out. I was thinking we’d both be witches 🙂
They had such a fun selection this year.
I haven’t dressed up since the kids left home but I used to! I did pick up lots of cute things from there the other day though to decorate!
I’m all about coordinating family costumes so you should be a super hero too!
We were just in Target the other day and bought some Halloween goodies. My kids had a fun time looking at all the costume choices.
I wish I had a Target store nearby. I have to shop online at Target. We are going as Zombies but since I truly believe Halloween is a kids holiday I’ll be a pretty zombie so I don’t scare any little ones:)
You should be a superhero too!
I’m going as a Vampiress (I think that’s what it is anyway. LOL) and my son wants to be creepy this year and is going as the Grim Reaper.
I’m not a big one for dressing up – so I won’t be, but I would be okay with something like a pirate if I did 🙂
