DIY Halloween wreath

October is here!!! that came fast. I absolutely love decorating for Halloween, I don't know why but its so much fun. A new month means a new wreath to hang up for your Halloween decor. This was so simple, easy and fun. Now for the garland, I didn't buy the same color for this wreath cause I wasn't planning on making a wreath out of it and I was a little iffy on making it. I just went for it and used all of the garland I bought (from the dollar store) and it turned out great.

this is what it looks like on my door.

After I put the garland on I wanted to add a little more to it. So I put some spider webbing on it and a giant spider. 

This is what my porch looks like when I finally finished decorating for October.

Alright and that is that see you in November for my Thanksgiving wreath!!.

Cream puff cake

Yes, you read it right cream puff cake. This tastes just like a cream puff but in a cake. The crust is amazing and fluffy and the filling is just the right touch of sweetness. Whenever I make this it is gone within an hour.

Gardening: Indoor terrariums.

I love to have these in my house. I'm in the process of making more Ill post pics when I finish. I got most of my stuff at the dollar store and I got the succulents from my mom. Wal mart has them and they are pricey, but it depends on which ones you have. If you know someone that has chicks and hens and aloe vera get some from them.

What you'll need:

• fish bowl or small glass bowl
• Succulents (any works i like the chicks and hens and aloe vera)
• Dirt
• rocks (i was looking for the aquarium colorful rocks but I couldn't find any. Or you could get regular ones and spray paint them)

What to do:

• Place dirt in bowl just enough to cover the bottom and to keep the succulents watered. 
  
  
  
• Add rocks than succulents or you could add the succulents first whatever is easiest for you. 

Yeay!!! you got yourself a cute little terrarium. I put mine in my window where I do dishes so I can look at it.

Stuffed cheesy bread on crack

My in laws and parents absolutely love this. Its very very popular in the Nielsen home. Its easy and fun to make and in the end you devour every last bit.
So I don't put in poppy seeds and dijon mustard. You can add them if you wish but i didn't and it tasted just fine. For the cheese I at least use 2-3 small bags of cheese. The ones that say 2 cups on them.

What you'll need:

I do not take credit for the pictures

• 1 french bread loaf or italian loaf bread
• 1 stick of butter, melted
• 1/8 c olive oil
• 3 tsp garlic, grated
• 1 tbsp dijon mustard
• 1 tbsp poppy seeds
• 3 tsp chopped parsley
• 12 oz grated cheese ( italian mix and monterey jack)

What to do:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Place tinfoil on cookie sheet than the bread loaf
Cut the bread into cubes with X slices without cutting all the way through the bottom crust.
Pour the butter-onion garlic mixture carefully into the X cracks using a small spoon or pastry spreader and over the top of the bread. Fill the cracks with cheese make sure you get every single crack.
Wrap entire loaf with foil, sealing the sides properly and bake for 15-20 min. Remove from oven and unwrap. Bake for another 10 min till cheese is all melted.
