HAUNTED HOUSE:

Ingredients:

  • Graham crackers

  • Black and Orange Frosting

  • Candy corn

  • Orange M&Ms

  • Pumpkin Candies and gummies

  • Your favorite Cookie or Candy Pop

Instructions:

  • Prepare your frosting by adding each color to separate Ziploc bags and cut off one of the bottom corner tips.

  • Decorate the walls and roof of the house before you assemble; it's easier to add details to your haunted gingerbread house when it's lying flat.

  • Once you've decorated the walls and roof, it's time to assemble!

  • Frost the bottom edges of your walls before securing them to stick to the foundation.

  • When assembling your walls, position the pieces so that the side walls are between the front and back pieces. 

  • Assemble your roof once the walls are dry (about 15 min). Frost the top edges of your side walls and place your roof pieces on top in your desired shape. Make sure those top edges are frosted so the pieces stick together.

  • Decorate the front yard with pumpkin candies and Cookie and Candy pop popcorn! 



Popcorn Mix in decorated themed Mummy container: - Mummy Popcorn Mix with Oreo Cookie Pop

Ingredients:

  • 1 Bag of Halloween Oreo Cookie Pop

  • 1 Bag of your favorite Halloween-themed candy (we used candy corn)

  • 12 Paper popcorn party containers

  • 24 Orange or black buttons

  • 4 Rolls of medical gauze

  • One bottle of Elmers school glue 

Instructions:

  •  Start by adding glue to all sides of the popcorn container. 

  • Gently wrap the gauze around the container, starting from the top. Once you've made it all around until you reach the bottom, wrap and glue the end. 

  • Glue 2 buttons to one side of the container and allow all to dry for 1-2 hours.

  • Fill each container with a mix of Oreo Cookie Pop Popcorn and an assortment of Candy Corn or your favorite holiday candies.


Popcorn Ghost: (also fits the pumpkin and vampire ball with slight modifications):

Ingredients:

  • 1 Bag of Oreo Cookie Pop 

  • 10 oz Mini Marshmallows

  • 1/4 Cup Butter

  • 1 Bag of white candy melts

  • 1 Bag of candy eyes

Instructions:

  •  Place the popcorn in a large bowl. 

  • Melt the mini marshmallows and butter in a large pot over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

  • Pour the marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and stir with a spatula until the popcorn is coated.

  • Use butter or olive oil to grease your hands and form the mixture into popcorn balls. 

  • Place the balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper (Allow the balls to cool completely).

  • Melt the candy melts according to the package instructions. 

  • Dip the tops of the popcorn balls into the melted chocolate and return to the baking sheet. Allow the chocolate to set for 1-2 minutes before adding eyeballs. 

  • Allow the chocolate to set before serving. 

  • *Take liberty and make all sorts of creations with the same concept. We tried vampires and pumpkins as well!

Gigi & Nate ($10 Amazon Giveaway)



Many thanks to Roadside Attractions for providing a sample of the product for this review. Opinions are 100% my own.




GET YOUR TICKETS NOW TO SEE GIGI & NATE on September 2, 2022.  This is a great movie for the entire family.

Gigi & Nate is a story of hope, of overcoming the obstacles life throws at us, reveling in the art of faith and perseverance. This encouraging and inspirational film is based on a true story!

“As much as this is about a monkey and this kid, I think it’s about overcoming difficulties and things that you think are impossible that you’ll never come back from.”
Charlie Rowe (Nate in GIGI & NATE)


Gigi & Nate is the story of Nate Gibson, a young man whose life is turned upside down after he suffers a near-fatal illness and is left quadriplegic. Moving forward seems near impossible until he meets his unlikely service animal, Gigi - a curious and intelligent capuchin monkey. Although she is trained to assist Nate with basic needs, Gigi helps Nate find what he needs most of all: hope.

You can see the connection that Gigi has with Nate.  I particularly like the scene where Gigi is chased through the house by the family dog.   Watching Nate struggle with all the therapies is heart-wrenching at times.  But, watching his progress is heartwarming.  This is a great family movie!  Have some tissues on hand for this one.

Sometimes, all we need is hope.  Read that again!  Sometimes when you think all is lost, here comes HOPE!  Hope can often be disguised as many things, so always seek out hope.
