I’m over at Blissfully Domestic today, reminiscing about past Halloween nights (written a couple of years ago).
And in the meantime, I have my chicken cooking on the stove (in salsa).

And my cans of beans laid out.

And a very special friend dropped a “new kitchen housewarming” gift by (perfect timing).

We may do Halloween differently this year. We may just put on a pot of Chicken Chili and open our doors, and stay home!

Cider on the stove. Chili in the pot. The kids are older and doing their own things, but our house is always open.

What are your plans for the weekend?

Want to try a yummy dessert? Check out Grace’s (A Southern Grace) Easy Bars, Halloween Style! YUM! And I’m linking to Melissa’s Beautiful LIfe today, because opening our homes to others is a beautiful thing!






Hi, I'm Sandy. Five years ago I stocked up on beautiful glasses from the Dollar Store. As I started writing about dinner parties, I realized that this “icon” portrays a great message. It says that dinner parties are attainable, they are affordable, and that they can be beautiful even when on a budget.
