Copy Cat

I have to confess that this year , I too have become addicted to the Twilight series . New Moon has been my favorite one thus far . I can not wait for the movie ! I love both Jacob and Edward ( I guess I am like Bella LOL )
However , I am a bit disappointed . You see , one of my friends pointed out to me another series , that is too similar to the Twilight series . I have been borrowing her books called the Night World series by L. J. Smith . Now mind you , these books came out in the late '90s . It sure looks like Stephanie Meyer took some of the settings , same name of characters and even some of the same plots from these books . These too are good books . I still love the Twilight series but am very sad that they are not looking too original anymore . Read the Night World books and see what you think .

Ideas for Halloween

I love Fall ! Everything about it makes me happy . All the colors , the smells, the crispy cool air , children laughing as they play in the leaves and Halloween . Most would look at me funny for the last . I know most think that it a bad holiday and evil but to me it holds some very fond childhood memories . It was a time for family fun when I was growing up ... nothing evil . I have been continuing that on with my kids . We go to the Pumpkin Patch , pick out our pumpkins and cut them from the ground and take them home . Plan for cut little costumes at least 2 months before . And buy lots of candy ! Halloween is a big thing in here in Morenci . It is still old fashion fun . It reminds me of the old TV shows of kids trick or treating .

Today I was looking at a new cooking magazine I get every month and come across some very cute recipes for Halloween . To find them you can go to www.kraftfood.com and type in Halloween in the search box . Very fun stuff ! Try them out this year and let me know how they turn out .
