I haven't updated in a while, but I have a good excuse, really! Tomorrow is the first day of the new school year. We have a new (unfinished) campus to get used to, new students, and no office printer yet. The students won't have their textbooks for a few days either.
Now, for the good stuff. October!!! My favorite month is here and well underway. I can't believe how quickly this month is passing. Halloween will soon be here. I'm hosting a party on the 30 and for the 31 I will probably prepare a plate of simple Samhain foods and set it outside for the spirits. I'll probably set out some walnuts and hazelnuts and apples.
For the Halloween party, I'll make some Halloween Jell-O shots and some of my nummy black bean pinwheels. If I could find sun dried tomato tortillas it would be perfect because I'd have the orange and black colors together. Unfortunately such things do not exist here, so I will have to use plain white tortillas. If the package from my mom arrives on time, I will make a cake in the shape of a pumpkin. I wanted a skull cake pan, but Mom could only find a pumpkin-shaped one, so that will have to do.
Stay tuned for some more Fruits of the Season posts, including my favorite, the pomegranate.
