These test tubes were actually a spice set that I found at a thrift store – kind of like this, I couldn’t find the exact one but you get the idea. I just filled them with Halloween sprinkles and little plastic spiders from Walmart and candy eyes. The printed labels are from Etsy.
Do you remember the cart on the porch that was given a makeover? It’s a perfect storage for my halloween hoard.
Some more fun decor on the porch!
This phone is still a favorite and goes off when people come on the porch – our cutest little neighbor boy just got brave enough to come up and knock on the door and I hear him whispering, “it’s just a toy, it’s just a toy.”
I do have my eye on the spooky radio though!! Do any of you have it? I am waiting for a great sale/clearance so let me know if you see one.
I pulled out a ladder from the basement storage room that worked great for a display!
Happy Spooking!!

This is a simple salad but it’s sooooo good. It’s the one I always get a request for when I make it for company or bring it to a gathering.
The secret ingredient: this English cheddar that I buy at Costco – sweet & rugged and it crumbles perfectly – it is divine with the lemon poppyseed dressing. This cheese was introduced to me by GoToRecipes on Instagram in another salad she shared that is also soooo good –she has the best recipes.
Lightly toss together:
- Spring mix salad mix (or just whatever dark greens + spinach you have on hand)
- Coastal English cheddar cheese, crumbled
- Dried cherries (or cranberries, I like the cherries)
- slivered almonds (you can caramelize them if you like)
- thinly sliced apples or pears (dipped in lemon juice to prevent browning if it will be awhile before adding dressing)
Lemon Poppyseed Dressing
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tsp onion powder
1 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup oil (whatever I have on hand: canola, vegetable, or olive)
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
In a blender or food processor, combine sugar, lemon juice, onion powder, mustard and salt. Process until well blended. With machine still running add oil in a slow steady stream until mixture is thick and smooth. Add poppy seeds and process just a few seconds more to mix. Toss with salad right before serving.
Yum.
