I have a thing for hats. Dog hats.

Have I mentioned I love buying Furter clothing more than I do myself? Yes. It's true. Today I decided he needs a Thanksgiving hat so I went on over to Etsy and out in "Dog Thanksgiving Costumes" and I could never have guessed the adorable dog attire I found here! This girl out in San Diego hand makes these hats and costumes and her dogs are to die for cute! I ended up getting this festive hat for Furter:
The turkey one was a close second but ultimately, I think it would overwhelm Furter's small head.

Halloween Tasty Treats

I hosted my 3rd Annual Pumpkin Carving Party this past Tuesday. One of my favorite things about throwing this party every year is that it gives me an excuse to search out fun Halloween recipes. This year I went above and beyond what I normally do and whipped up 4 different Halloween desserts.

(Furter got to wear his new costume for the party!)

Witch fingers: chocolate dipped pretzel sticks with almond "fingernails", Butterscotch Haystacks
Skull cupcakes and Nutter Butter Ghost cookies. Any great dessert ideas I can file away for next year?

Hooray for snow!

Furter and I woke up this morning to inches and inches of glorious soft snow. The first thing I did was throw a sweater on Furter and head outside to get record of this wonderful event. See, for 26 years of my life, there were only 1 or 2 times a winter it snowed and we're talking an inch if that. Ofcourse there was the "blizzard" of '92 which consisted of 3 inches. The city of Atlanta was paralyzed for days. Living out here for 2 years, I still get all excited when it snows. I always love when it happens on a weekend so I have an excuse to stay inside, under a blanket, drinking hot chocolate and watching movies. Furter, on the other hand, HATES SNOW. If I were only 6 inches I'd hate it too I suppose. Madea may have to wait until another day.
