Boo! Halloween is just around the corner, which means there’s a lot to be done for fun themed parties and, of course, making treats for the trick-or-treaters. To prepare for the ghoulish festivities next week, look to our Entertain & Celebrate Halloween issue, on sale now. 

It has tons of pumpkin-styling and party-decorating ideas to make the next bash for the young and young-at-heart a success. It’s the perfect resource for your last-minute planning needs.

Not to mention, it has all the scrumptious sweet and savory Halloween-themed recipes that you could possibly desire! Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies with a spooky cat outline, Candy-Coated Apples, Turkey Sliders with Pumpkin Aïoli, Brownie Owl Cake Pops, Pimento Cheese Ghosts—there’s too many yummy snacks to list! It’s always fun to make creative snacks for your trick-or-treaters so I’ve included the recipe for the Brownie Owl Cake Pops below. They’re perfect to slip in a little bag and tie up with an orange ribbon!

Right about now, I could go for a warm cup of Butternut Squash Soup served with Pepita Pesto made from roasted pumpkin seeds.

Such a fun time of year, fall brings beautiful autumn leaves, great breezy weather, and creative holiday décor. And don’t forget about decorating your pumpkins! If you are all out of pumpkin-carving ideas, then look no further. This issue has some neat projects to try like melting crayons to drip down the gourd’s groves.

I don’t know about you all, but the Ghost Cake on the issue’s cover looks stunning! Whimsically designed with googly eyes and a black cat silhouette perched on top, it would be a great centerpiece for your party table.

Get the issue and get to making all these Halloween treats! Before we know it, Thanksgiving will be here, and that’s a whole other menu we need to plan.
