OH! I love Halloween! And all the fun that goes with it! My favorite treat is a mixture of salted Spanish peanuts and candy corn. I know, some people think I am crazy but I really do love the mixture!
Candy corn is my favorite Halloween treat. I love watching my grandchildren at Halloween and fall is my favorite time of year. Oh also Halloween is my birthday!
Witches are my favorite – this post got me in the spirit! Reese’s Cups rule the Halloween candies. Preferably in pumpkin form!
I love an ooey, gooey carmel apple. Delicious and a little bit healthy.
Well that is a tough one the chocolate always went first lol telling my secrets and then candy corn. Love Halloween super fun time of the year. Always great to see your pictures.
Halloween is the best! I have always loved raisinets since I was a kid.
Mary, Your Halloween finds are fabulous! The witch wine glasses, napkin rings and tablecloth are adorable! You always select the cutest Halloween kitchen towels. Your generosity in sharing with your readers is so sweet and thoughtful. You’ve helped us all enjoy Halloween more and brought the child out in many of us. I found myself buying skeleton hands and bones this week. Before reading your blog, I wouldn’t have given them a second look. Thank you for the fun inspiration! Happy Friday! Clara ❤️
I love Halloween – a combination of make-believe and yummy treats. I used to LOVE making my kids’ costumes and then they made their way into the dress-up trunk (the costumes not the kids!!) My favorite treat is a caramel apple but I like virtually all Halloween treats!
Mary, I was reviewing this post today to get Halloween decorating inspiration. I love M&M’s. I will be using some of your cute ideas. Clara❤️
Candy corn is my favourite treat. Halloween is my birthday and I love watching my grandchildren enjoy this time of year.
Halloween is my favorite holiday! Miniature Milky Ways are my favorite treat! Really love your blog and look forward to seeing Rod and Rowena soon!!!
I pinned several of cute decorations. Clara ❤️
Halloween is so much fun. I grew up when we could trick or treat with our friends all through the neighborhood without worries. I loved sorting the candy back at home and finding my favorite Bit of Honey candy. I still decorate my house and my hatchback for trunk or treat. I love to dress up in a costume to match the trunk theme.
Love the trunk treat idea!
But my favorite is the costumes…love making them fit my daughters and have continued as an adult dressing up each year. I’m lucky that one of my friends has an adult Halloween party every year with a different Halloween Theme. So one can keep it simple or go extreme with ones costume. I won one year with a ghost cape & hood I made of white tule.
Treats: brownies decorated in the theme, often with candy corn on top – simple but fun to cut the brownies into fun shapes!
My favorite Halloween treat is actually the roasted seeds from carving pumpkins. Thanks for the give away!
Love your decorations and ideas ! My favorite treats are candy corn and chocolate cupcakes with Halloween sprinkles .
I love candy corn with salted peanuts!!
I love Halloween also. As for my favorite candy, candy corn and peanut butter cups have to be in my cauldron.
I love Reece’s peanut butter pumpkins and all the other year round shapes they’ve come up with. I made your witches cauldron cupcakes with my grandchildren last year. Although they only vaguely resembled yours they were very creative and not a little spooky!
I pinned the spider peanut butter cookies. Maybe my little people and I will make these this year!
Love Halloween. Current favorite treat is mellocream pumpkins. Best childhood memory is going to the house where they gave away Fanny Farmer candy bars. Luxury in the 1950’s.
My favorite Halloween candy is Heath bars – full of crunch and chocolate! I’m going to make your festive Halloween Witch’s Potion popcorn treat this year and put the treats in small bags to share.
I pinned the photo of the colorful table setting with the black and white check tablecloth and the beautiful floral centerpiece. Love all of the Halloween pieces!
At Halloween I have candy corn running through my veins! But I love all Halloween goodies…so many yummy choices!
So fun! So fabulous! So creative! So inspiring! So, so wonderful!
THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR WORK, EFFORT AND SHARING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love, love, love all your Halloween displays !!! YES, it’s the most wonderful time of the year!!!
OMG, I love all things Halloween and fall! I started decorating the end of August! I am old fashioned and still like Candy Corn… I guess I’m a relic!!! I can’t tell you how I enjoy your blog and have lost count as to how many years I have been following you! You continue to be so entertaining, informative and delightful!
Pumpkin shaped peanut butter cups are my favorite Halloween treat . Happy Halloween everyone!
I have loved your candy mix and used the recipe of
Your mix for Halloween gifts. My favorite is peanut m&m’s.
Mary, you are so awesome. You have converted me into loving a fun Halloween theme, and my collection has begun over the past few years (even in a downsized world, there’s always room for a few salad plates, glasses, etc). I pinned the entire collection of goodies to my seasonal inspiration board, all so fun. Reese’s peanut butter cups are my fave, and our new (old) neighborhood sees hundreds of kids in a non-Covid year. Not sure what this year will bring, but I know it’ll be exciting. Thanks for always keeping us inspired. Every emailed post is sure to be a good one from you. Have a great weekend.
You are unquestionably the Halloween queen and have inspired my tablescapes for years! I have pinned your whole entry to my board as I always do and look forward to all of your posts; Halloween is indeed the most anticipated time of the year. I also love peanuts and candy corn and sometimes add miniature Reese cups to the mix! Thank you for always bringing the joy and fun.
Halloween Fun, OhMy, you are such an inspiration! I love sour cream pumpkin spice donuts and apple cider.
As a loyal member of the Black Hat Society, Halloween is definitely my favorite holiday. My favorite treats to eat and give out to trick or treaters are Kit Kats and Mounds Bars. Love to do a bit of decorating for our special night and will set the table with my best witchy china and glassware and place a lovely centerpiece of dead black roses and pokeberry.Always make a batch of Ghoulash for dinner with black frosted cake for dessert.
Have a perfectly Haunting Halloween.
Snickers bars are my favorite!
I have always loved Candy Corn! I love Halloween and all the fun that goes with it!!!
I have to admit I love candy corn and I must say you do the most wonderful and creative things! Thank you for sharing it all 🎃👻
I love the joy and playfulness Halloween brings to children and adults. It’s impossible not to get wrapped up in the fun of it. My favorite treat is the little box of Nerds that’s just so easy to pour in your mouth in one big bite. Happy Halloween!!!
I always love your Halloween posts because I get so many great ideas. Lola and Sophie look adorable in their Halloween attire. My favorite Halloween candy are those Reese’s peanut butter and chocolate pumpkins.
I have been a subscriber for years.
While cleaning out the garage this summer, I came across a pair of high button Victorian – style shoes that had once belonged to my mother. She didn’t wear them, she kept them in a Victorian style bedroom as a part of the decor. I almost donated them, but for some reason it didn’t. I think they are going to look perfect in a Halloween display this year. Thanks for the great idea.
Pinned!
I love Baby Ruth. It reminds me of being a kid and enjoying a simpler life. It also was my Mom’s favorite candy. I enjoy your Halloween posts. They really kick off Fall for me.
Peeps – Halloween Peeps!! Plus chocolate in any shape or form!
Halloween is my family’s favorite holiday, and I travel to be with my grandson who says what we as a family will be each year – this year we are Star Wars characters!!
By October we are all so ready for a new decorating season, Halloween has to be my favorite. As a retired teacher of 30 years, my students loved the fall books and activities surrounding this fun event. Our favorite classroom treat was always candy corn and candied apples or caramel apples. However, with second graders someone would always loose a tooth at first bite.
Mary, I always love your Halloween posts, You are SO creative!! I would love to win one of your giveaways. I am a subscriber. My favorite Halloween candy is Kit Kats, which I don’t buy at Halloween because I’d eat any that weren’t given to trick or treaters!!!
WOW!! This is the giveaway to end all giveaways!! I would be excited to win any of those prizes! More great ideas from you and your recipe box! My favorite Halloween candy, when I was a kid, are the homemade popcorn balls we use to get when we went trick r treating!! I’ve been a subscriber for like ever!! Hopefully we’ll have our long awaited puppy by the time your giveaway is over and that would be a nice treat for our pup to win the Sophie & Lola giveaway!! GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE! ❤️🧙🏻🧟♂️⚰️🧹👻 BTW: I love the napkins that sat “I CAN DRIVE A STICK”…
Hands down, candy corn is my favorite. Even better mixed with cocktail peanuts! I’m a member of The Black Hat Society and I dearly LOVE your skeletons! Oh, and I pinned the photo of your great giveaway!
I pinned and saved the picture of the Witches Tea Party! I have always loved that iron teapot!!
I pinned your picture of the pretty table setting with the black and white check tablecloth, the ribbon tied pumpkins and the beautiful centerpiece.
You are amazing! You are a fount of boundless imagination and your execution is bar none!
I have followed your blog for years, way back to when I was blogging. You really should consider writing a book. I’m sure you’ve been told that before. I have shelves of books tablescapes and holiday decor and cookbooks, but your book would stand out amongst them all! Fondly, Alma
Oh my Mary, you’ve outdone yourself with this fabulous giveaway!! Thank you for sharing some of your Halloween goodies with us. My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn mixed with peanuts. I’m already a subscriber. 😊
All the Halloween just makes me smile. I have about 100 Department 56 Halloween houses and village pieces. I also consider Autumn Mix one of the major food groups in October!! Enjoy your posts. As my son used to say when he was a little fella, “Happy Ween”!
My fav thing about Halloween is WITCHES, but only

I love Halloween on you blog and have been a follower for many years!! We have so many of the same dishes :). My favorite candy is candy corn, love to eat it and decorate with it. Thanks for the give away have a Spooktacular day
Oh Mary, Queen of Halloween, you have outdone yourself this year! I love the fun, not too spooky side of Halloween and my eyes are popping looking at all the cute things you have found and are so generously giving away! Plus all the photos from the archives of all the fabulous creations you have made in your kitchen and on your tables of Halloweens past! You have thought of Halloween everything! I was one of your lucky winners several years ago and won a set of fabulous plates, thank you! I have seen a lot of witchy things with the saying “Yes I can drive a stick!” so cute! The blingy glasses are great and I love the cat/pumpkin napkin rings. Your teacups are fantastic, are they new this year? Wonderful fun~
Jenna

Mary, what a treat! Your Halloween Umbrella is probably my favorite thing you have ever done. It made quite an impression here!
I’m a traditionalist–give me some candy corn!
I’ve always liked your Witches Popcorn mixture. It’s a little bit of what I like in one big witches pot.
Thks for all tour great pictures.
Your Witches’ Tea Party display ( in the potting shed ) is fantastic I especially love any display that includes crows!!!
Made those witch legs with tootsie roll feet cupcakes last year for my Grandkids… think I’ll try to the cauldron cupcakes this year.
The Halloween cones I copied last year were a HUGE hit with my Grandkids. Thanks for your inspiration!
A great post on your Halloween ideas! I have made the Oreo brownies and everyone loves them including me, and the grandkids! You have such good ideas and should write a book! It would be a hit! Move over Martha!
As a long time subscriber, I throw my witch hat into the contest ring every year hoping I’ll get the scare and surprise of my life and actually win. LOL! Positively giddy over all the goodies you have this year, Mary! You really do find the cutest decorations for every holiday season. My favorite treat to eat is the Reese’s Halloween Peanut Butter Pumpkins…they’re ghostly good! 🎃

I pinned those adorable cat napkin holders. Love them!

You make every holiday so fun and inviting. I love the fall harvest mix that has candy corn in it, so yummy. I love to eat caramel apples also. My niece and I chose a craft for Halloween to make every year. This year we are making two, candy apples decorated and pumpkins that we paint and also a couple of decopauge ones. So much fun making memories with her. You have the best Halloween ideas that I just love.🧡🧡💛💛🤎🤎 I also would love to be a part of your Black Hat society, sounds like fun idea.🧡🧡

May all of us have a spectacularly ghoulish Halloween season this year!!!!
Hi Mary ~ I pinned one of your beautiful and inspiring Halloween tablescapes into my Happy Halloween Pinterest board 🧡🖤
Love this post! I love Halloween! Candy pumpkins and any candies that are chocolate (no peanuts -allergies here) are my favorite Halloween candy. I’m hoping to win any of your goodies, except the doggie gifts. Our sweet Lady girl went to Heaven.
I made your popcorn last year for my neighbors. One bag never made it into the house. My neighbor sat in his front yard and started eating it right away. I think I will make the brownies this year and the popcorn for the neighbors. Thanks for all the inspiration. I admire your energy!
Your posts are always chocked full of ideas and inspiration, and this one is no exception. Halloween is a fun holiday, and I’m now enjoying it through the eyes of my grandchildren.
My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn, and it’s particularly good when mixed with dry roasted peanuts!
I pinned the tootsie roll shoes for cupcake toppers and the cauldron cupcakes to do for my grandchildren.
Thanks so much for continuing to provide “eye candy” for every season of the year!
Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year!
Candy corn and snack mix bark is a great Halloween treat 😋
I have a Witches party for my girlfriends and their husbands – no witch hat you can’t come in. Like you I really love decorating for Halloween and my grandchildren love turning on all the things that make sounds ! Drives my husband nuts! I love candy corn and start filling my kitchen jar as soon as it comes out. Thank you for your blog I love looking at it.
My favorite Halloween treat is taking a clear plastic glove & put one candy corn in each finger for the fingernail, then fill the rest of the glove with popcorn, then tie off with orange/black ribbon. Festive & fun seeing a plate of hands!!
I loved your table and decorations–so creative! I like the halloween orange and black M&M’s–so cute in a clear glass cannister and everybody loves them (and you can hear when the glass lid is taken off or put back (haha). I pinned your outdoor table with the candy corn–among others. I love your BEAUTIFUL posts–never miss them–thank you!
Love decorating for Halloween! Your pics always inspire me. I’ve saved 9 of them to my Pinterest Halloween Board! My favorite treat for Halloween is Nutella filled chocolate cupcakes decorated with purple and/or orange frosting and Halloween sprinkles. This year I’m going to spring the the witches boot cupcake toppers. My 8 year old Grandson will love helping me make them! And of course I’m a subscriber! Keep up the great inspirations my wife says we are kindred spirits and that I may not have as much “stuff” as you I come close with our limited NYC apartment storage space!! LOL!
I love all your posts and I’m delighted when I find a new one in my inbox in the morning! Thanks for all the beauty and inspiration. :)
My favorite Halloween treat is Reece’s Peanut Butter Cups. 😋

Love Hallowe’en!!! Brings back so many great memories back when I used to make the kids costumes.
My favorite treats are caramel dipped apples and caramel corn🎃
I LOVE halloween! My favorite halloween treat is decorated cupcakes. I will have to try some of your recipes.
I always enjoy your Halloween posts! My son’s Bday is on Halloween so we always have a delicious cake of some kind. But my favorite candy is Malt Balls. I once made a cake with malt ball frosting!
Your pups look so sweet in their Halloween get up. It’s the one of few times I allow myself candy and for that bewitching day, I eat black licorice.Wishing me luck for your gift.
As a child I loved the taffy with peanut butter in the center, They were wrapped in orange or black wax papers. I lost several teeth inside those morsels, keeping people from winding my teeth with thread or string and yanking. Now that my tastes have “matured” fresh Butterfingers are my favorite.
My new favorite Halloween candy treat is Reese’s white chocolate covered peanut butter cup pumpkins. And of course always have to have Candy Corn. Love your posts and all the great decorating ideas. Hope I win!
Hi Mary, I really enjoy your posts! I get so may decorating ideas from them. My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn mixed with roasted peanuts. It tastes like a salted nut roll candy bar, yum!
As always, your decorating and treat ideas are the best. My favorite Halloween treat would be between caramel apples and Hershey bars.
Oh, I LOVE fall and all of the wonderful Halloween decorations you have shown us!!! It would be so fun to win one of these spooky cute prizes! My favorite Halloween treat is a caramel apple dipped in pecans and chocolate chips. YUM!!! I count it as a healthy fruit option over those darn unhealthy candy bars. :) Thanks for the chance to win one of these great prizes!
Oh my gosh your decorations are to die for! I wish I was half as creative as you are. My favorite treat is of course regular candy corn, its the absolute best in small amounts. (I could eat an entire bag if I am not careful). I hope I win something and thank you for having this fun giveaway!
Mary,
This is by far your most Spooktacular giveaway!! My favorite “treat” is decorating the house with my daughter. It’s her first year away from home and we were unable to decorate together before she left. It’s always a treat to decorate our black tree with all the glass ornaments we’ve collected throughout the years. A different type of sweet treat!! My yellow lab says “woof” for thinking of all the fur members of the Black Hat Society!!
My most favorite holiday all year! Love black licorice
Your Halloween decor is always such a “treat!” LOVE all of your creative ideas. I especially love Rod and Rowena! My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn. I’m a long-time follower and LOVE your blog!!! Sheryl
I enjoy the Meri Meri sets for orange-iced cupcakes. The designs are cute, not scary, for the little pumpkins that come around! Thanks for the giveaway.
Love all things Halloween….especially Reese’s pumpkins!
I’m a subscriber and thank you for your delightful blogs. Caramel apples are my favorite all during Fall.
What a fun collection of Halloween decor and treats. Posted to my Autumn Pinterest page. Thanks!
My favorite Halloween candy is miniature Almond Joy bars! I’m a long-time subscriber and always love seeing your Halloween posts and great inspiration! Thank u to ou for a great giveaway opportunity! 🎃 🧙🏻♀️
I pinned about the Halloween giveaway on my Pinterest page! 🎃🧙🏻♀️
Love your Halloween decor and everything Halloweeny! Made your umbrella witch last year but it isn’t nearly as wonderful as yours. Favorite candy would be candy corn/mallow pumpkins. Thanks for all of the great posts.
I LOVE Halloween and am so excited to go big this year now that we can welcome back trick or treaters again. I missed the fun of Halloween night last year and will never take it for granted again. Each year I pick a theme and go for it. This year is is Hocus Pocus. Your Halloween inspirations are perfect for what ever theme I pickl. I pinned your tablecape because I love the colors and details.. You always hit the spot with your details. Thank you so much for your creativity. I look forward to your posts every day. Happy Halloween.
Oops forgot to mention that I like candy corn and brownies. Thanks again.
Love, love, love Halloween. My favorite treat has got to be caramel apples. I love all the fun ideas that you share. Give your girls a hug for me. Happy Halloween!
I love love Reese cups but I’ve also come to love candy corn. I must be a member of the Black Hat Society because I love Halloween and I decorate for my own pleasure even though we are lucky to get half a dozen trick or treaters anymore. My posable skeleton arrived today and is relaxing on the back porch right now. I pinned the witch umbrella picture. I want to try making it. I have the legs. Now if I can get the rest of the materials and get it to come together. Thanks for all the wonderful Halloween decorating motivation!
When I was growing up in Brooklyn I loved the Orange iced cupcakes with a charm. Now that they are no more my favorite candy is Peeps Orange Pumpkins.
My favorite Halloween candy is the Orange Kit Kat.
Joan
The Harvest mix is my favorite Halloween candy.
Marilyn
I love Halloween & my favorite candy is Autumn Mix – candy corn, Indian corn and the little pumpkins! I also like to mix it with dry roasted peanuts.
Love your giveaways!
Mary, this is all fun and you and your witches have a plethora of goodies to give away. You know I love Halloween and a good give away, but I’m at the stage where I’m paring down my holiday things. I gave my spider web plates to a niece this summer, so I hope to see a fun party table.
My favorite Halloween candy is candy corn. A friend dropped off a bag yesterday. I’m in trouble once I open it. 😂😂😂
I am also a member of the Black Hat Society! And I pinned “When Black Cats are Seen” tablescape to my Halloween board.
Candy corn is still my favorite Halloween candy. I also like to decorate with it, as you do!
My favorite treat is peanut butter cups YUM! I pinned the witches umbrella (love all those petticoats), I hope to make one soon!
Love your blog!
Believe it or not, my favorite Halloween Candy is Candy Corn!

Such great Halloween ideas,,, I am not sure which one to try first! The witch shoes with tootsie rools are adorable.
Wow!! This is so exciting!! My favorite Halloween candy is hands down Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups!!
I pinned the Witch’s Potion Popcorn!! So fun!!
I love candy corn and plan to try this year by adding salted peanuts as suggested!
Thank uou so much for this beautiful collection of fun spooky ideas. My favorite candy used to be popcorn balls but have become a BIG fan of the popcorn mix with the candi quik coating. I make this for several holidays. I really love the table scape with green and orange flowers and pinned that to my holiday board!! Wishing you a delightful beginning to the holiday season!
Your creativity is over the top!! You are true inspiration!! Not just for Halloween but all holidays!!!
I love Halloween Parades. Easy Witches Potion Popcorn was pinned. My favorite candy is Dove Dark Chocolate. Happy haunting.
My favorite treat is candy corn. You are such a joy to follow. We can’t thank you enough.
Oh my goodness! What a fun post! My favorite candy is pumpkin shaped York peppermint patties (I love dark chocolate). I had to pin to of your projects the witches shoes form tootsie rolls how clever and the spider cookies! My grandkids and I usually make Halloween cutout sugar cookies maybe we will add spider cookies to the list. Your post are always so wonderfully laid out and fun. Thank you!!
I’m happy to know that I’m not the only adult person who LOVES candy corn. All that sweetness, as I just read from the previous comments, can be offset by those salty peanuts!! Thanks for the suggestion!!!
Your Black Hat Society is my favorite post each year. I get so many ideas to incorporate into my own decorating. My favorite Halloween candy has to be Hershey’s Krackle candy bars. But then again I have been known to poach a few others from my kids trick or treat bags!
I love decorating for a fun Halloween around our house. I start early thinking about what foods to make for dinner before the little witches and goblins arrive at the door. I look forward to your Halloween post every year. I always know I will get the best ideas. My favorite candy is Almond Joy. My children would come in after trick or treating and pull all the Almond Joys out and give them to me! They were and still are wonderful children. Thank you for all your ideas. You never cease to amaze! Happy Halloween.
Oh my – feel like Dorothy from Wizard of OZ! So many tempting prizes. Please enter me in your drawing. Thanks enjoyed your post!
Werther’s Original – l Pumpkin Spice Caramel is my favorite Halloween candy – so carried away with your post that I forgot to add to comment above. Thanks
Anything chocolate! I like Kit Kats and chocolate or white chocolate Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Your decorations are always the most fantastic!
Love the candy corn and popcorn recipe. Such cute ideas all around. I love Halloween!
Homemade caramel apples! When my children were
little (and living at home!), their friends would gather at our home before trick-or-treating. I would make chili, cornbread, pumpkin cookies and a “witches” punch!
My favorite Halloween candy is Reese’s pumpkins. There is just something better about the holiday cups they have during the year. I love Halloween too. Behind Christmas and snowmen, Halloween has the most decorations at my house. Love all your tables – saved one on pinterest too.
Love it All, But Anything CHOCOLATE will do just fine ;)
Halloween is, hands down, my absolute favorite holiday! My favorite Halloween candy is Bottle Caps and anything milk chocolate. My favorite holiday treat is spending Halloween with my grandchildren!
Like so many others, Halloween is my favorite! I love homemade popcorn balls. Or peanut M&M’s or Reese’s peanut butter cups or… You have the most creative tables decor for Halloween and any other time for that matter! And I have to say I just love your dogs! Thank you for all you do to make us all smile!
Oh my goodness, what a great giveaway!! This time of year I search for the pumpkin shaped Reese’s cups. I also love things like pumpkin bread and cookies. Yum! I get lots of recipes and ideas from your blog!
I am a long time subscriber and lover of your blog.
I love your creativity and sense of whimsy. I enjoy your tablescapes and recipes. My favorite is flourless chocolate torte. I would say that my favorite Halloween treat is peanut butter cups.
Halloween is and always has been my fave holiday since I was a kid (now 64). I love all your décor tips and wish I were as talented as you I’d have to say my fave thing to make during this season is a Chocolate Pumpkin Bundt cake recipe that I found as a 20 something in Cuisine magazine–delish. my favorite treat is caramel apples with peanuts. Happy Halloween!
I love caramel corn and fancy decorated sugar cookies. Beautiful and tasty too!!
what fun, I do love your Halloween posts, they are always so much fun. Candy corn would be my favorite! Time to order more!
Your home at Halloween is definitely the “home is where the broom is” !! How can someone not smile from ear to ear gazing at your magnificent images of how to celebrate Halloween!…Love seeing your Halloween displays from year to year and look forward to what you have up your witch’s sleeve to wow us! Of course Halloween is not complete without the adorable Lola and Sophie.
I must say that caramels are my favorite candy for Halloween…especially wrapped around an apple! 🍎 I have loved your umbrella witch and have often toyed with the fact of making one…years later…..Thank you for all of the inspiration of ghosts and goblins, 🎃 and the most wonderful treats!
Oh but Halloween is a wonderful time of the year. I go crazy with my decorating and my hubby asked why since the kids are grown and the grands live so many miles ( states actually) away and I always tell him it’s for me. Finally have learned it’s perfectly fine to do things for me. For the second year my book club is coming here for our October meeting ( yes we missed last year so this year is special) which means I am going to make those adorable spider cookies and would love any of your gifts. Southpaw ( my dachshund beagle rescue) says he would so Emily the doggie treats. I saved the picture on Pinterest. Well, my pretties, I am off to do some Halloween planning.
Peace
Mary, you have no idea the ispo you’ve provided me…and all your other subscribers. I’ve been a H’ween Junkie since a little girl.
Over the last few years I’ve made “Brella”, the umbrella witchy poo, I’ve recreated your arrangement with the ‘flame” sunflowers (so hard to find now) and also the candy DIY vase arrangement for a sweet shut-in. (Pinned) I make pans of Halloween Bark to give away each year and the popcorn mix for my hubby… And that’s just your Halloween inspiration! A sincere thank you for all of it. Look up over the lake at the Witching Hour…that’s me in my best witch hat, flying over on my broom from Asheville to say ‘Hello’, with a big bag of M&Ms and (honestly) my black cat. All the best to you. <|:)
I love your beautiful blog and have been a subscriber for several years. I love gardening, flowers and tablescapes and this blog is just what I enjoy.

I would have to say Reese’s Peanut Butter cups. They were my favorite as a child and the smell and taste of them remind me of trick or treating in my homemade costumes lovingly created by my mom each year.
My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn. I enjoy seeing everything you do and am thankful that you share all the details too! Thank you 🎃
I love this time of year and especially Halloween. I’m getting so many ideas from your blog. Bring on all the pumpkin shaped Reese’s and pumpkin flavored cupcakes and treats.

I pinned the ‘You say Witch like it’s a bad thing’ mug. I would love to be a member of the Black Hat Society but I’m not sure how. I already subscribe so does that make me a member? Nowadays my favorite Halloween candy is the candy corn. I didn’t like it when I was young but now it’s a Halloween representative so I love it!
Always enjoy your posts – anytime of the year – your creativity is amazing! No matter the season your porch, lakefront, potting shed, and home all say “welcome, come and visit!” I look forward to your blog and all the wonderful ideas you share throughout the year.
My favorite Halloween candy is candy corn.
You are my most pinned blog of all blogs!!! I love all your holiday themes. You have a talent beyond my imagination and I love stealing all your ideas every year. Thank you for being so talented! I also pinned several of your ideas in my Halloween Pinterest page as I do every year…
Love all that is Halloween!!!!
As a member of the Black Hat Society, I love anything with caramel. I have pinned one of your photos to my Halloween board.
All the Halloween things look like so much fun!
I pinned the withes’ cauldron cupcakes and the Halloween popcorn to make with or for my grandchildren. They are coming for the weekend before Halloween & will love both of these. Thanks for so many wonderful ideas. You never cease to amaze!
I have been following you for years! I love your post, especially your Halloween ones!! My favorite candy is Candy Corn.

My favorite Halloween Candy is CANDY CORN!! all that sugary goodness! lol
Mary,
For my second entry I pinned your photo of the table that has the spider web tablecloth (as a reminder that I need to replace the one I had that went missing after a Halloween party a few years back!). I’m so thrilled that you go all out for Halloween each year. Do you also decorate your home’s front door area, or only the she-shed and back yard?
The temps have cooled off a bit here and it actually feels like fall…finally! I hope you’re enjoying a break from the humidity and that Rod and Rowena will soon drop by to visit us all. As always, thanks for the awesome inspiration!
Mini Heath Bars! ~ Love them! Sadly they are somewhat endangered. Without them, how would we bake Maida Heatter’s “Heath Bar Cookies” if we couldn’t stock up the freezer with the little candies at Halloween? Lady Bella de la Bones and Baron Von Roachchild of Ghoulton Abbey without a glass of bat milk and a plate of Heath Bar cookies bedside? Oh the Horror! Where are my smelling salts?
I too share your love for this time if the year and for sure Halloween. Such a fun time for decorating and enjoying the beauty of the season.
I so enjoy everything you post. You are so very talented and creative. I am a faithful follower and have been a subscriber for many years. Hard to pick an absolute favorite candy but one long time favorite has been the mini snickers. (chocolate, peanuts, caramel)
Speaking of caramel…Caramel covered apples are indeed a favorite Fall season treat along with a cup of warm apple cider!
I also pinned the witch umbrella and your tablescapes.
I enjoy everything you post. You are so fun, talented and very creative. I have been a long time follower.and subscriber.
It’s a little challenging to pick a favorite candy when there are just so many choices… the mini snickers (chocolate, peanuts, caramel) triple yumminess. Speaking of caramel… Caramel apples and a cup of hot cider… more favorite Fall treats!
I love Halloween!! The candy, the decorations, trick or treat, parties, you name it! I used to take the kids out trick or treating and carving the pumpkins. Just so much fun, I really miss it, they’ve grown up. Now the greats have come along and they live too far away. I still decorate and buy candy. But I live out in the country, no trickers. I thought I could name a fav candy, but reading some of the comments, I realize I love it all! I did save a pic of the goodies you’re giving away, Thank You!! Happy Halloween to you and the pups!!
I love Halloween as well. Dovetails nicely with my Harry Potter obsession. Caramel apples are my favorite. Going now to pin almost everything! How to “Wow” the neighborhood Halloween party!
Wow! I love Halloween and all these photos give me all the feels, I wish I had your decorating talent. My favorite Halloween treat is candy corn
Candy corn always gets such a bad rap… but I enjoy a handful now & then during the witching season!!!

I didn’t see my original post so I’m trying again. I’ve subscribed to your blog for a couple of years now and I love it! I pinned the Witch mug picture and my favorite Halloween candy is the classic candy-corn. I always think of fall and Halloween when I see it. Thank you!
There is no one that does Halloween like you! Love it all, the shed the puppies but I like the umbrella witch and caldron cupcakes. I tagged so many on Pinterest but truly live it all.

Growing up Halloween was always a big deal in our little neighborhood, one lady always had popcorn balls, candy apples and cider on her porch to give out. The candy apples were my favorite 😍
Love all your decorations & ideas!! Thank you
How to pick my favorite?! I don’t know, Mary Janes, candy corn, caramel apples! I love it all!
