Oktober Fest

fall-party1.jpg

Last Sunday, I hosted some girlfriends at my place for an afternoon filled with comfort food (including peanut butter and jelly sandwiches rolled in sprinkles), spiked apple cider, Halloween films and some cupcake decorating.  Two days later I’m still in a bit of a food coma, but have already begun planning for next year’s party.

I love that you blog so much about food and cooking… It’s suprising that I don’t considering I probably spend more money on food than I do on fashion, haha
Been following for a while, such a lovely blogger!

Yum those look delish! And seems like you have a lot of patience with your cooking. Very festive and cute! Did you hear about the Conde Nast titles that folded? Including the favorite cooking mag – Gourmet! I know you worked at Teen Vogue (I’m a former intern) so I’m sure you can feel for the CNP employees. Blogged about it here: http://www.manhattancupcake.com/2009/10/cookie-crisps.html
