Alex the Jack-o-Lantern

Alexandra and I have been reading Halloween and Pumpkin books all last month so we made this pumpkin mosaic on a paper plate a few days before Halloween. It was super simple and even better - I already had all of the supplies on hand. She loved using her glue stick to stick all of the orange squares onto the paper. She also helped to cut out some of the squares as well. 

Muffin Tin Monday: Halloween Lunch

I finally found some time to participate in Muffin Tin Monday! 

I know Halloween was last week but I gave Alexandra a Halloween themed muffin tin lunch so I wanted to share it today. It's been a few weeks since we've even done a muffin tin meal - the whole month of October kind of just flew by. In fact, I hardly even had any blog posts. I guess life just got in the way!

So here is what she had in her lunch

A Ghost banana, cheese cubes with a pumpkin pick, candy corn for dessert

A hot dog mummy with "blood" (ketchup) and eyeballs (grapes with the skin peeled off)

And let's not forget the mummy juice box!
