Halloween Goodies: Cute and Easy Recipes to Make

I was looking online for a cute easy Halloween recipe to make.  I found quite a few at Taste of Home.

I'm going to make these Ghost Cookies:

They look really easy to make and how can you go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate!

Mrs. Wishy Washy Extension Activities

I'm slowly going through my boxes and boxes of teaching material, I have accumulated over the years. This week, I found my Mrs. Wishy Washy Activities. It's funny, how every time I open a box, memories flood over me. Memories of past students, the funny things they would say, how their eyes lit up with joy over a particular activity or the occasional total flop. I always loved teaching Mrs. Wishy Washy - it was a guaranteed winner with the kids.

Here are some of my favorite resources online:

Virtual Vine has lots of great ideas and this printable

Hi all,

My father passed away several years ago after a fierce battle with Cancer. I was able to care for him in my home and the experience left no doubt of what a horrific disease Cancer is.

In June, my cousin Eric, was diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer. He was 55 years old and had never missed a day of work. Eric fought long and hard, but Cancer won. We held his service Saturday.

Here is his story: Eric Emshoff
