With Halloween just around the corner, Kyle and I were discussing whether we should do a family costume.  I haven’t really dressed up for Halloween since junior high, but we live in a neighborhood with lots of Trick or Treaters and thought it might be fun.  Since Avery already looks like Toto (and won’t make it 2-minutes in a costume), we’re thinking about a Wizard of Oz theme.

So I was hunting down Halloween party ideas on Pinterest, when I spotted the perfect cocktail.  It’s called the Poison Apple, and ladies, it sparkles.  Literally.

All you need is Fireball, fruit juices, grenadine and edible gold glitter to make a Poison Apple.  Look how pretty that is in the glass!  I can’t think of a more fun way to add a festive note to your Halloween cocktail.

Instead of attire, let’s talk about the importance of a good serving device for Halloween Candy.  This spider bowl from Nordstrom Rack caught my eye.  I also like this Day-of-the-Dead themed candy bowl.  Or this Happy Halloween Tray for easy candy viewing.

We will probably pass out Kinder Joy eggs this year, but we’re on the hunt for an allergy-friendly option for kiddos who can’t eat most candies.  Spokin had a list of allergy-friendly candies, and some friends suggested glow-sticks or stickers.  So these Party Sticks look like a semi-affordable candy alternative.

Do you get trick or treaters?  And what kind of candy or treats do you pass out?
