In the spirit of Halloween, I made my first batch of pumpkin oatmeal.

I mixed 1/2 cup of oatmeal with cinnamon, brown sugar, and a heaping tablespoon of pumpkin.  I topped it with a dollop of cream cheese that tasted amazing when blended into the bowl.  So yummy!

DSCN2075Beautiful autumn day in Boston!!!  It’s typically COLD and miserable weather on Halloween so this was a nice treat.

I got free tickets to the BC football game.  We ate lunch on campus at Hillside.  I ordered the “Turkey with Brie” sandwich.

Turkey, brie, lettuce, and honey mustard on cranberry bread.  Served with homemade chips and a pickle.  The cranberry bread is the star of this sandwich.  I love it!

DSCN2079We met Molly and a few of her friends for some pregame partying.  I had to keep the pumpkin theme going with some Dogfish Punkin Ale.  Mmm!

BC vs. Central Michigan

My parents enjoyed the game too!   Jared and I left a few minutes into the 3rd quarter, but kept checking the score to make sure that the Eagles got the victory.

Halloween time:  Jared dressed as an 80s rocker.

DSCN2085I was a 50′s Diva.

Jared just yelled that the dog is staring longingly at my Haunted Gingerbread House and whining.  So I’d better end this post now and tend to the crazy dog!

    GREAT costume!!
    I love the Dogfish Punkin Ale. I had it about a month ago and loved it. Unfortunately I have not been able to find it since then. Now I am waiting for the Great Lakes Christmas Ale to come out!! It’s amazing.
