Halloween Cards Easy to Make

There's still time to make some handmade Halloween cards for all of the ghouls in your life. I simply bought some empty card sets at a craft store and rounded up some old paper remnants and some cute accents I had lying around for the October holiday. Even if you only have orange and black paper on hand, you can still come up with some clever ideas for card faces. And making them with little ones can be even more fun.

With so many neat card-making supplies and embellishments to choose from these days, making cards -- and scrapbook pages -- is easier than ever.

Happy Halloween!

Make Your Own Pumpkin Lattes

It must be fall because the onslaught of giant orange-colored fruits is upon us. Not only do you see pumpkins lining the driveways of local markets, there are full displays featuring the fruity goodness at grocery stores.

I happen to like pumpkin, a lot, but usually limit its presence to pies, because nothing is better. But I have been eying up pumpkin-flavored lattes at local coffee shops and trying not to give in.

Thanks to Google, I did find the recipe for a simple pumpkin latte you can make at home for much less cost than buying one. Visit McCormick's website to find the recipe. Also, visit here for some unusual uses for pumpkin.
