FREE Game Board pattern on DAY {3} of our Halloween Party!

The Halloween FUN continues..... WELCOME to DAY {3}!  It sure sounds like you all have been enjoying the party so far!  I still have much more in store for you, so keep checking daily! 

 

Did any of you have a chance to make the dip or cookies???  My family and I have been snacking on them both today {except Grace, she's not a PB girl or spicy girl}!!!  She's missing out!  Can't believe she doesn't love PB!  I LOVE PB!!!  And BTW, that dip was even better with the cheese added! LOL!

 

Today I tried to get my "black cat" Wilma to pose for me... but all she wanted to do was be lazy!!!  So, I went to my next best option and decked out Oliver for you!  I also couldn't resist sharing this great decorating idea we did last year at the BARN Event!  All you need to do is take a pair of vintage legs (I know you all have a pair of them just sitting around in your spare closet! LOL) and put on some Halloween tights, a pair of boots and place them in an urn!  It makes a great statement piece by your front door!!! 

 

Today I also have another super easy recipe for you to enjoy!  

Ingredients

For the crumb topping:

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup old fashioned oats

1/2 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp baking powder

1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

dash of salt

1/3 cup unsalted butter, diced into small chunks

For the apple filling:

3-4 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and sliced thin

3 Tbsp butter, melted

2 Tbsp flour

1 Tbsp lemon juice

3 Tbsp milk

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

dash of salt

Serve with Vanilla Ice Cream

Instructions

1.   Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

2.   In a medium size bowl combine the crumb topping ingredients with a fork or pastry blender until it resembles small crumbs. Refrigerate while you prepare the apple filling.

3.   For the Apple Filling: In a small bowl, combine melted butter and flour until well blended. Add lemon juice, milk and vanilla and stir well. Stir in brown sugar, cinnamon, and salt. Pour butter mixture over apples and toss to coat. Pour apple mixture into an 8x8-inch baking dish and spread into an even layer. Sprinkle crumb topping evenly over the apples. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until golden brown and top is set. Remove from oven and allow to cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
