Fun For Friday - Happy Haunting!

Happy Friday!  Thank you everyone for your suggestions on my pattern search.  I have ordered 2 books from Amazon that will hlep me make my own patterns.

This past week I got out a few Halloween decorations.  I try to change it up and use different ones so I don't get tired of them.

Here is one of my favorites.  It is a Dept. 56 Haunted House and Haunted Graveyard.  I've added a lot of extras to the set like the trees.



here is spooky shot -


A crime scene!  I can see who is to blame, she left her slippers...


Here it is lighted.   The green lights are little skulls.


To give you an idea of scale, I displayed it this year atop a dresser in my kitchen.


Here it is with an apple.  As you can see, it is quite miniature.


Here is my Living Room mantel decorated.  I got the glittered bats at Pier I Imports.


One of my favorite fall recipes.  There are only a few ingredients.

Autumn Pumpkin Soup

1  can Pumpkin Pie mix
1  12 oz. can evaporated milk
3  cups chicken broth.  (You can use up 6 cups, but I like my soup a     little thicker, so I only use 3)

combine ingredients and heat through.


I serve it with sour cream sprinkled with a little nutmeg.


Hope you are enjoying all the sights and flavors of Autumn.  It is my favorite time of the year!
