My thoughts on halloween

Although I'm happy to let the kids dress up, even go to a halloween party or have some halloween treats and decorations at home...I don't like trick or treating.

Thankfully I've never actually had anyone come to my house trick or treating...NEVER! But each year I always grab some lollies or treats just incase.  This year I thought we'd make something so we're making the little 'teacup' biscuits and wrap up.  So if no one comes past, then we have something cool to eat and maybe we can go visit a friend on Sunday and take them with us.

At the moment Rat_girl (I hope) is too young to understand or know about trick or treating. However when the time comes that she asks I and going to do my up most to talk her out of it.  There is a chance that may not work so if that happens I have decided what I will do.  I will allow her to do it in out street (close) only and prior to taking her I will do up some packets of treats and drop off to each house with a note letting them know we are coming trick or treating and so that they are not put out and so she is not disappointed I am giving them the treats and would appreciate if they can give them to her when we come around.

But like I said I'll try talk her out of it first!

Menu Plan 26th October

Alright lets just pretend it didn't happen...

Crappy week and although we did actually eat to the menu just didn't get time to post.

Christmas Gifts

This, or something similar is what I plan to do for Christmas gifts this year.

Plus I am thinking, we're having a little disco party for Rat_girls 4th birthday in December.  I might do one for the parents of each child along with some home made playdough as party favours.

Someone read my mind!

I was deciding how to pre-make Concrete_mans salads for the week..

Well I normally pre chop a lot of my vegies when I do my groceries but to have everything in the same container or something would be great so I can just pull the container out and and put into his lunch container...or he can do it himself HAHAHAHAHA

Anyway someone has just read my mind

The Life of a Super Organised Mum - pre make salads

The only thing I want to do different is I would prefer if the container was square or rectanlge, I have a phobia of round containers, they just do fit they waste space etc and my fridge doesn't have a lot of space as it is.  Hmmm unless I can incorporate it into my big tupperware fridge smart container.  Maybe I can...I wonder if I could just get little fridge baskets and put in the container to make compartments then I can keep the salad vegies serperate until I'm ready to make the salad.

Just thinking out aloud now.

What a hot bum

Awwww babies look so much cuter in cloth I think.

Although you are not technically looking at a cloth nappy, just the cover, but under neath is your good ol fashion terry towelling square....
