Making food fun for the family

Vegan MoFo Theme

by

This is my THIRD Vegan MoFo, I can hardly believe it! Are you signed up too? Eeeeeeeee….

Every year I have participated, I have done an homage to all things Halloween. 2 reasons why: 1). It has always fallen upon the month of October that I have been involved, and 2). I LOVE HALLOWEEN! (and that’s putting it lightly…) Even though this year we are in September, I cannot help myself. I HAVE to have some sort of hand in Halloween. And why not have a hand in the Halloween candy jar…

My first entrance into the scene of food blogging really began during Vegan MoFo and that year I had a new-found love for gluten-free and vegan candy-making. I never made candy before nor did I even know that I would actually enjoy it as much as I had. So this year I wanted to re-visit my roots and perfect some old recipes and introduce tons of new. So my theme has been born:

themeAll in preparation for Halloween next month, of course. Here are some old posts from 2011. I cannot WAIT to show you the new and improved versions as well as ones that I have yet to take a stab at. Until then, enjoy!

    exciting! i don’t blame you one bit for choosing halloween again! besides, this gives us a chance to plan for next month 🙂 also, so excited to see your baby ruth recipe.. that’s my absolute favorite and it’s been at least 10 years since i’ve had one!

    My theme will be balance (if I manage to stick to it^^). I will alternate daily between sweet and savoury recipes. All subject to change though 🙂

    Gosh I remember your MoFo posting so well! All those sweet treats! Glad you’re participating again this year. This is my first time! I’m doing an A-Z of my pantry with recipes for all the ingredients I don’t use enough.

    What a great theme. This is my first MoFo so I am “winging” it. Whatever inspiration hits me (and whatever I have in the fridge) will determine the recipes. Cant wait to see all your treats. 🙂

    Here’s your theme song for these….Frankie Valli and The Four Seasons – Candy Girl. Check it out on YouTube.
    Of course, it’s a blast from my past and your theme reminded me of it 🙂
    I’m drooling. I want them all but especially the Butterfinger!
    XOXOXO

    Ooh, I love your theme! Halloween is so fun, and candy is such a good outlet for creativity! I’m excited to see what you come up with 🙂

      There really IS something about Halloween that brings out the creativity, isn’t there? Thank you for the comment Carie!
