Fall and Halloween Moments

Happy Halloween and Fall! This month I tried some fun Halloween treats around Seattle. I also took some pretty photos showcasing the autumn colors. Have a Happy Halloween! 

 

At Westfield Southcenter I discovered the store BoxLunch. This store is filled with Disney merch, which I wasn't expecting. I found this cute Mickey Pumpkin and a Halloween coffee mug with Mickey and friends! 

Some pretty fall colors at Maple Wood Playfield in Seattle. 


Check out these Halloween themed cocktails at BJ's Brewhouse my husband and I tried! The unLucky Ducky and the Boo-Berry Sour drink. 


For my free Birthday dessert at BJ's Brewhouse, I got the Spooky Pizzokie and it was scary good! 


On my birthday, I got my free Starbucks drink. I chose the Iced Pumpkin Chai with Oat Milk. 


For my birthday cake I bought some mini cupcakes and then decorated them with some Disney Halloween cake toppers I found on Amazon. 




I baked some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip cookies! I found the recipe here on Chasety.com. 


Kabota Gardens near Renton is a great spot to visit and walk around this time of year! 

Another shot from Kabota Gardens. 


I made some Pumpkin Chocolate Chip muffins for a potluck at my sons' school's Open House. I found the recipe here at Allrecipes.com. 


Some more fall colors in my neighborhood. 


At The Flora Bakehouse I got this Orange Creamsicle sundae with a ghost meringue. So cute for Halloween! 


What are you doing to celebrate the fall season and Halloween?
