BFF Open House Link Party



Happy first day of Fall! My favorite time of the year ( Pumpkin Spice madness aside...yep I'm a hater lol). Let's see some Fall ideas from last week's party! 


I love this idea from Olives and Okra. It's a Kitchen Witch apron. Best part is it's made from a panel so it's almost all done for you! How fun would this be for Halloween entertaining? 


I've seen a couple ideas combining pumpkins and succulents. What a great way to decorate from now through Thanksgiving? Check out this one from Sugar and Succulents using a faux pumpkin. 


Perfect for hostess or neighbor gifts or for yourself, Woods of Bell Trees has a great tutorial on DIY Foaming hand soap. This time of year with germs aplenty, handwashing is KEY!


And while I may not be a pumpkin fan, I think I could be convinced to try these Chocolate Pumpkin Cupcakes with Nutella Buttercream Frosting shared by Amy aka My Name is Snickerdoodle over at Lolly Jane

Now, onto this week's party!

BFF Open House Link Party

The Answer Is Chocolate

Happy Friday Eve all! Apologies for oopsing on last week's party. I have a good excuse though. I got whisked away to Disneyland to celebrate our Anniversary. Had so much fun just the two of us. Not that we didn't miss Phd Boy but two kids at heart on the loose had a great time!  And we got to be there when the park was decorated for Halloween. 


Here are some highlights from the party the week before last!



Let's start with this cute crocheted wreath from Olives and Okra. Perfect for Halloween! Let the countdown begin! 


If you're still getting organized with back to school, this Lolly Jane has a great way to do it with this DIY Wood Caddy

If you're thinking ahead to holiday gifts, you could whip up batches of these glass edged coasters from Love Inspired Details


This week's chocolate features are some treats we enjoyed on our trip! Disney does not disappoint on desserts!


"Darth" Chocolate Mousse at Galactic Grill in Tomorrowland

Chocolate Chip Sundae and Dipped Cone at Gibson Girl Ice Cream on Main Street


Tigger Tails by Marceline's Confectionery


Even though not chocolate, these were the best dessert because our server Kacie at Cafe Orleans treated us to Mickey Beignets to celebrate our Anniversary!



Now, on to this week's party!
