Where did this month of October go? In one week it will be over and I don't think I say any of it... How about you? So, are you ready for Halloween... not me, but then I really don't have to do anything for it ~ I usually eat all the treats I buy to hand out so I am thinking I am not going to hand out anything this year.. No treats, no extra weight for me.. Win, Win.

Crazy Ingredient Challenge ~ Broccoli and Pumpkin #crazyingredientchallenge
Chicken and Broccoli Pizza has to be my favorite type of pizza so when we got our ingredients for our Crazy Ingredient Challenge ~ Broccoli and Pizza, I just knew what I had to make. Pizza! I did some searching and found that I could just put the pumpkin puree into my pizza crust and that is what I did. The verdict... YUM! I decided to use turkey instead of chicken as I had some on hand... but it would be perfect with chicken too.

Fall Wreath #crafts
Fall Wreath
I have been very late this year in getting my Fall decorations up. I usually get them up before Canadian Thanksgiving but as you can tell that was last weekend and I am still working on it. I wanted to make a wreath to put on the front door but that failed too. I couldn't find any bigger grapevine wreaths anyway in the are and I am not sure where I put the extras I had. Maybe I used them all.
Anyways there are only a few place I can find craft supplies ~ Walmart, Shopko and the Dollar Store. I started at the Dollar Store and most of the material I found was from there.. So now I have a Dollar Store Craft.
What I used:
1 inch letters "FALL"
small scrap of scrapbooking paper
6 inch wreath
ribbon
leaves (felt) ~ I used 8
couple of plastic flowers
glue- I used Tacky Glue and a Glue Gun.
Directions:
I first glued the letters to the back of the scrapbook paper. Once dried I cut them out ~ this was the hardest part. Glue leaves to one side of the wreath. Arrange flowers and glue to the other side. Glue 'FALL' close to the top of the wreath. Make a bow and attach to the bottom... And you are done.
Simple, Easy and Cheap... This maybe cost about $2.50 total with lots left over to make more and I think it looks wonderful on my fireplace.

Over the past year the 10 of us under the leadership of Tracy we have grown, both personally and as a group.

I personally feel that we have learned from each other and have all become great friends through cyber world.

I love the diversity that this magazine offers to all of us and to our readers.
