We all LOVE Halloween (or at least most of us! LOL)
While we tend to associate Halloween with Trick or Treat Candy, many of us celebrate by entertaining, and we need good recipes for YUMMY homemade treats!
This year, I am doing a Halloween Recipe Countdown on two of my food sites, here at TheArmchairChef.com and its companion site, ILoveToBake.com.
The recipes will be posted between now - October 27. I am ending the Countdown several days before Halloween so that you have plenty of time to plan and prepare!
Here at TheArmChairChef.com I will publish a couple of unusual Breakfast recipes, so you can start the Holiday out right! LOL

*When I dream, I cook and bake like an artist…*
PS - The recipes will be different on each site, so there will be over 30 different recipes! Be sure you get them all!
