In the last post, I provided you with a how-to for throwing your first Halloween party for your kids. I thought that I would follow up with a Jack-o-Lantern Cake. And yes, it looks like a real Jack-o-Lantern, because it is baked in two bundt pans. There is a recipe below, or if you are… […]

Now, I don’t even want to think back to the parties that I hosted. All I can hope for is that your teen is a whole lot quieter and neater than I was. No, I haven’t even shared those stories with my kids.

Yes, this just looks as if it would be hard to make, but I’m not telling you to start from scratch… you are using a mix. And the frosting comes from a can too! Decorating the cake will probably be the hardest part, but you have to admit, it looks like a lot of fun. […]

Do you have a little pirate at home? Someone who just can’t get enough of hidden treasure and the high seas? If so, then you’ve found the place to satisfy his or her swashbuckling ways. You’ll find parties, games, cakes, crafts, and more — all in your child’s favorite theme.
