51 days - swooooon!

I finally broke down & went to Target today to look for the infamous pumpkin Spice M&Ms.  Success!

 I like the colors & the package is really cute.  
I got more of the 'spice" flavor from them over any "pumpkin"  
But I'm sure I'll finish off the bag.  
I'll have to control myself since I highly doubt they are Weight Watcher friendly!

Isn't my countertop hideous?  70s vomit spatter brown is the color. 

 I also had to get the White Chocolate candy corn variety. 
 I got more "white chocolate" than "candy corn" out of this one.  
And a very sugary aroma drifted out as soon as I opened the package.  
Yummy, tho!

And I had to get some tried & true basic milk chocolate ones.  
The colors are neat & Red in the football jersey is really cute!

They didn't have much out by way of decor yet. Some costumes, a truckload of candy & some towels & stuff.  There is still much potential at this Target, since they had a LOT of open shelving lined with skeleton paper in that area.  I'll give them another week or two and go back.    

I like these because they're nice & soft.  And JOLs!!!  

.
oh, yeah.  And I got a couple $1 packs of black tealights. 

You know what peeves me?  People posting stuff on my timeline on Facebook that apparently they think I've a) not seen it 1000 times or b) they think I'd actually use their ideas.  let's explore....

no.

ok, this is pretty freakin' awesome. 

no.

oh.hell.to.the.NO


Anyhooo, I have the post-it-note in front of me with the number to the wood recycling place so I will put it in my bag & call from work tomorrow.  Mom offered to let me use Dad's truck to pick up pallets.  I probably only need 12-15 but I can't fit them in my Escort so I'm going to take her up on that offer!   I need to get busy on that damn fence!  And I need to finish my Secret Reaper gift because I want to get it postmarked Friday the 13th!

But first.... my family wants food.  Sigh.

  1. LOLOL! I know what you mean about the facebook thing. I've lost count of how many times someone has sent me the chicken wire ghost dresses. I know they mean well, and that makes me smile that they are feeding into my Halloween obsession :)

    1. I always try to "like" their post & such, but I'm really thinking "are you kidding me????"

      I've read other posts about the Pumpkin Spics M&Ms, from what the display said, they are exclusive to Target.

    1. I was showing my hubby all the bags and as soon as I showed him those, he stuck his hand out for some! Guess he likes them, too!
