It's that month! And unlike the rest of the US of A I've held off on posting anything about Halloween until October officially began. (Okay, I'm one day early.) It amazes me how each year commercial holidays get displayed earlier and earlier in store windows. This year I was shocked when I saw an add for Christmas advertisements at the...

Keep the pie by the door and offer parents a slice. Or, for parents with younger children, after the trick-or-treating has commenced invite them in...
Another alternative and fun soup recipe for the Halloween night is this roasted pumpkin soup. Growing up my mother use to make this delicious dinner appetizer during the cold fall season when the leaves began to change color and the desire to stay bundled up with a warm soup in your belly seemed that much more appealing. It is that...
I know that many find enjoyment in being scared. Haunted hayrides through deserted corn mazes are a well attended activity leading up to Halloween.

My brother when he was about 7 as the Red Power Ranger. He's now 20yrs old. (He's the guy in all the Mottahedeh Memo posts.) During an ice breaking event this weekend I learned that Halloween was one of people's favorite holidays! And is it really any wonder? It's a day linked to childhood memories of dressing up, getting free...
