You’ve all seen the Boo gifts floating around the internet and you might have even participated in a few, with your neighbors or co-workers, over the past few years. But let’s get real for a second…it’s seems to be all about the kids. Am I right? I feel like it’s time we changed something up and focused on the adults for a second, because there are A LOT of us that love halloween too! And why not celebrate with a friendly little “Boozed” gift of our own? Need a great adult halloween gift idea or fun new tradition to start with friends or family? This We’ve Been Boozed printable is the answer…because…cocktails. Need I say more?

Apple Cider Bellini
It’s apple picking season and one of my favorite fall activities! Besides making pies, and treats, what are other ways you can use up those delicious apples or apple cider? By making these tasty apple cider bellini cocktails!
Printable Halloween Movie List
Anyone that knows me, knows that I take holidays very seriously. And creating a must watch movie playlist is ALWAYS on the agenda. There are only 31 days to celebrate my favorite holiday and you can bet that I’m taking FULL advantage of that. I cram as many Halloween themed movies into the month of October as possible. One movie, each night, all October long. Think you’re up for the challenge? I’m sharing my printable halloween movie list with you guys this year and trust me, it’s a good one! 😉
DIY Football Pumpkins
Guys, I’m trying not to get too ahead of myself here, but I don’t think I can wait to bombard you with all things Halloween any longer. Multiple people, and I do mean multiple, have made comments about me getting a little too excited too early, but I say, screw it. As soon as September 1st hits my calendar, I’m ready for ghosts, goblins, caramel apples, and skeletons galore. And, technically, I did wait until the middle of the month to jump into the swing of things, so I think I’ve been patient enough. 😉
Either way, Halloween is hitting the blog and I’m thrilled. It’s my very, very favorite holiday and one that I celebrate to the fullest. But, to ease you guys in, I’m starting with a fall themed project first. These DIY football pumpkins can be used throughout September and well past Halloween too! They couldn’t be any easier to make and you only need a few cheap items to throw them together.
Limoncello Recipe
It’s crazy to think that holiday season is right around the corner. I still can’t even accept the fact that Summer passed in the blink of an eye. (It must be a tell-tale sign of getting old). As October hits and our schedules start getting busier and busier, we have less time to think about gift ideas. With endless events, parties, birthdays, and holidays, they can sneak up on us and leave us scrambling. But, with a little prep work, or a saved pin on your pinterest board for later, you can store ideas away and be prepared well in advance this year! Today’s recipe works for just about any gift idea, and honestly, you can just keep it on hand at home, ready to pour when you have house guests stop by. This limoncello recipe is easier than pie, but it does take some patience and a little bit of time before it’s ready to sip.
DIY Halloween Dessert Table
This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of 7UP® and Sunkist®. The opinions and text are all mine.
If you guys have been hanging around the blog for a while now, you know that Halloween is my absolute favorite holiday of the year. I go all out and try to cram in as many October themed activities as possible to really get the full “All Hallows Eve” experience in. I usually like to throw some sort of get-together for my friends and family too. Whether it is a Halloween themed party, dinner party, or just a movie marathon night, I infuse as much Halloween goodness as I can into all of my entertaining plans during October.
One fun way to incorporate some spook into your next Halloween gathering is with a fun Halloween dessert table! I love putting dessert tables together because they really let your imagination go wild and who doesn’t love treats?!

Strawberry Jam Recipe
I feel like a lot of people get overwhelmed when they hear the word “canning”. Granted, it can be a little intimidating if you’ve never tried it before or don’t know where to start, but I promise that it’s easier than it looks. Once you’ve nailed the process the first time around, you’ll be more willing to tackle new recipes and experiment with new flavors. And, I swear, it really is easier than it seems! 😉 And you’ll definitely want to keep canning after you taste how delicious this strawberry jam recipe is too!
