The Seven of Us

Easy, Sugar Free Fudge 1/2 cup coconut oil 1/2 cup pure maple syrup (a glycemic index 26 points lower than sugar) 1/2 cup cocoa powder 1 tsp vanilla extract pinch of salt 4 tbsp (ish) evaporated milk (not in the original recipe - I added it to make it a little smoother) any nuts/berries, etc you choose Put everything in a blender and blend. Spread on some parchment paper and freeze a few hours. Enjoy. (Keep cold since coconut oil melts at 74*)

A few days before Halloween we carved our pumpkins. On Halloween night we trick-or treated at several houses.  Actually, an elderly neighbor lady had called asking if Caleb could do some raking for her, so he and Jared were doing that. Taylor was at the Haunted House, which left Kenna and I to trick or treat with the little guys.  Here are Kenna, Corbin and Isaac with our neighbor, Rosie. Isaac was Mario; Corbin was a cowboy (minus the hat), and Kenna was "smartie-pants".  The weather on Halloween was great.  We really like to get out and walk, see our friends and neighbors, and enjoy the evening.  The boys had a good time handing candy out at home.  I was also able to go to the FFA haunted house with Kenna and her friends.  Scary!
