But first, we caught up with Holiday Party Expert and celebrity guest blogger Daisy Kuchins for her 4 best Easy Tips to make your holiday haunt more fun than a Vampire's Ball! She told us:
"As the editor of a holiday website, I see a lot of creative Halloween ideas - crafts, recipes, decorating tips and costume ideas start coming in from my writers when October begins. Through the years there are some ideas that I've adopted and are now my go-to’s every year. The common denominator to all these crafts and recipes is that they are super easy, which I am all about. When I need to bring a dish to a party or an activity to do with the kids, these are my favorite EASY Halloween tricks I have up my sleeve."
Craft: Mummified Jar Candle Holders With a new baby this Halloween, I can truly appreciate DIY and crafts that are easy without necessarily looking it. That’s one reason why I love this decorative craft. It’s cheap to make and you might even have everything you need around the house. |
|
Treat: Tombstone Brownies This Halloween treat is one of my favorite go-to recipes for parties. They are easy enough to make, since they are only semi-homemade, and they really make me look more creative than I think I am. kids will love to make, and eat these brownies. |
|
Pumpkin Decorating: Halloween Glitter Pumpkins One reason I love this glitter pumpkin craft is because it can be used for Halloween and Thanksgiving. It is a great inexpensive centerpiece for an elegant Fall bash. |
|
Finger Food: Mummy Dogs These Halloween appetizers are so ridiculously easy, and both kids and adults will love them. For bite-size appetizers just use cocktail weiners. For a slightly more upscale version use phyllo dough and sausages. If your kids are free have them help you create the mummy dogs; they'll love making them as much as they love eating them. |

Reese's Peanut Butter Cups!!! :)
Snickers or Tootsie Rolls are my fav! :)
My favorite Halloween candy is Reese's too but my favorite treat from childhood were the caramel apples that a neighbor made every year. We would go to her house first so we did not miss getting one. They were so good.
BUTTERFINGER USED TO HAVE SOME TYPE OF BALL WITH LITTLE TOFFEE PIECES IN IT, BUT HAVENTSEEN THEM AROUND ANY MORE, SOOOOOOO JUST BREAK ME OFF A PIECE OF THAT KIT KAT BAR.
My Favorite Halloween candy is Whoppers I love them to no end. They are great crushed and mixed with my ice cream..
I love Reese's Peanut Butter Pumkins! Nothing is better than peanut butter and chocolate!! I also LOVE Mary Jane Peanut Butter Kisses although they are next to impossible to find these days. =( Every year my husband and I drive from store to store in hopes of find those sweet little candies wrapped in orange and black.
Has to be Twix!
Mounds, Almond Joy, Junior Mints, Peppermint Patties.
Love milky Way or Twix
SNICKERS AND MALO CUPS malo cups are sooo hard to get anymore - no one ever sells them but every Halloween my kids atleast get 1 which they know to give right to me. I alos love sugar babies and daddies., carmel lolipops, candy corn, almond joy the list can go on and on

My favorite candy is Twix but my son's would be gummy worms (or he'll sneak into my Godiva chocolates!)
I love the Candy corn and pumpkins! call me old fashioned but it makes me remember being a kid and how this candy signified it was Fall and Trick or Treating was around the corner!
