As Halloween approaches, I get more and more annoyed with all of the "Stuff" in the stores. However, I did get(at the library) the October issue of Martha Stewart Living, and it has all kinds of really great decorating ideas and recipes. I especially liked the "to do with kids candy making" and the boo-tiful ghost cake on page 116.

I know people have a thing about Martha, and I don't really appreciate her jail history, but come on, look at the great ideas that are in her latest mag. She does bring out the creativity.

I just might try the cake and the pumpkin carving. At least make a pumpkin pie.
