Good morning, friends! Anyone else as happy to see Friday as I am? There's lots of Halloween parties happening this weekend and you can't have a Halloween party without some spooky sweets. After going through sweets from Halloweens past, I realized we definitely needed a roundup!

They can make the monsters any color they want, and decorate them with all different kinds of candy. The first thing I did was make the eyes. I made them different sizes using white ...
