Shopping List and Pumpkin Plans

Today I will be running around getting more fall/Halloween decorations as well as getting things together for homecoming which is next weekend!

Here's my list:

• 2-3 pumpkins for carving
• a cute wreath
• mums
• purple patterned paper to make college decorations (for example a "welcome home" sign)
• paper products (cups, plates, etc. because I don't want to waste anytime with my friends by having to do the dishes)
• goody bag swag (I am making little goody bags for everyone staying with me next weekend!)

To get all this stuff here is my plan of attack:

The bank-Michael's-Old Time Pottery-TJ Maxx-The Tomato Vine.

Next week I will be getting all the grocery items and I will share all the yummy food I'm going to make! Stay tuned.

Now for the plans I have for my pumpkins:

I am going to decorate one with my college's logo and then maybe another more traditional Halloween-y one. Plus I am definitely going to make this one:

I am also going to roast all the seeds! They are great when seasoned with a little bit of ol' bay!

Don't worry I'll share the finished products! Well, I must run... I have a busy day ahead of me!
