Halloween party..



Last night was a great fun time..playing dress- ups always is! It was funny tho to see that there were a few folks who didn't dress up ...or had rather minmal costumes. The guy dressed as a fridge ( yep walking around in the whole BIG box thing! was the most original I'd have to say. :)
I'm still workin on seeing if I can get some of the pics out of my phone That's all I had with me to take pics.. I was worried about losing or muckin up the camera- or someone spilling a drink on it! ~lol~
So in the mean time here's a pic we took of my darling & I before we left home.

More random Halloween thoughts..

Halloween Horoscope for Gemini

Halloween is a huge party for you, except you're never really sure what to go as.
No matter what, your costume will make people's eyes pop out of their heads.

Costume suggestions: A sexy cop or a naughty animal

Signature Halloween candy: Twizzlers



Ok... sounds fine to me! Tee hee!
'Cept I'm actually going as the all too willing victim of a Vampire... you know the whole long white nightgown penoir set thing! ;P

Now on to the GOOD stuff!..

So YES it was our Thanksgiving last weekend for all of my U.S. friends..Ours is MUCH earlier than yours...But now that means that we can put away the Turkey stuff till Christmas & get on to the FUN things
HALLOWEEN!!
OH yea & WHOOOOO HOOO.. Halloween has probably got to be my all time FAVE holiday It's just the Best Doncha think??
I mean just think...You get to decorate, have fun, see your neighbours & have treats if you so wish..Without all the huge emotional baggage & issues that can come along with Christmas!
& best of all --for me any ways it's a reason to play Dress-up! Both with the kids & myself Tee hee!
Steven wants to be a "dead cowboy" - why "Dead"- I dunno I guess it's an 8 yr old boy thing! ~lol~
& Jess wants to be Medussa this yr..Which has been an adventure & a half creating a costume..
Did I mention that I never just go out & buy a costume?? -- It's part whatever might be in our "dress - up box" part what I can find at the Thrift stores & then my Aunt who is very talented at sewing, helping me come up with the rest.. You should see the Catwoman from last yr & the Mermaid from the yr before!! They are "original creations" & really quite amazing ...Oh if I could only fit into them!! :P

I'm doubly excited this yr because I'm off the weekend before & friends of ours are hosting a party..So I get to dress-up twice! YAY! :D
~Lol~ Yea I know I'm a big Kid! I don't care..

What about you guys?? As the kids are all askin around school.."What are YOU & yours goin as??"

;)

Right then..

Well the events of the week in & around our Cyberworld have been quite the rollercoaster haven't they?
So in keeping with my thought of my being thoroughly-- boring I'm posting something I promised our own Cherie! A recipe~!

Ohhhh yes...contain yourself! ~lol~

Now bear in mind this is NOT out of the EFL cookbook .. but it's ever so Yummy & it gets not only the kids but my darlin to have a way to eat a balanced protein & carb meal/snack without spending $$ on enough bars for everyone-- that sometimes don't agree with tummies later ( this for you my dear Cherie ;)
We've taken this stuff boating, hiking & yes Stef -- up to the mountains skiing!

So without futher ado..

Chocolate chip power banana bread!

2 cups multigrain flour
2 scoops protein powder (vanilla or choc work well)
2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp nutmeg


2 cups( 4-6) mashed bananas
1/2 cup brown sugar
1 tsp vanilla



Mix the wet ingredients together & let stand..Mix dry stuff together & then fold the wet into it... Add in a handful of choc chips ( some nuts too if you're really ambitious or want the extra benefits )

pour ..& I use the word lightly since this stuff will be pretty sticky into a breadpan coated with nonstick spray

bake at 325* for 50-55 min
cool & wrap right away with foil or Saran & then foil ..Stays moister this way

ENJOY! :D
