5 Incredibly Simple DIY Snacks For This Halloween
One Little Project

Throughout my time on Pinterest I have learned that not everything can be completed by the average human, not to mention a broke college student with limited resources. No, I cannot afford every product in your makeup tutorial. Yes, I want to make a chandelier out of sticks in the forest and a giant balloon, but do I have the products? Not at all. So for this Halloween I wanted to make a list of the easiest Pinterest do it yourself snacks with limited supplies for the less talented, people on budgets, and just plain lazy people. This ones for you, my friends.

1.) Halloween Pretzels

From Butter With A Side Of Bread's article on how to make Halloween pretzels three ways comes the cutest pretzel snack ever. They introduce the pumpkin pretzel, the alien pretzel, and the mummy pretzel from simple ingredients such as Candy Melts, M&Ms, coconut oil, and pretzels. You can get the full instructions on the page! So simple, yet so adorable.

2.) Monster Krispies


While you are completing your Halloween pretzels, keep the Candy Melt out for this next snack! From One Little Projects' website comes how to make monster krispies. All you need is some Candy Melt in vibrant colors, candy eyes, cooking oil, and a bunch of Rice Krispies. Seems like a perfect after trick-or-treating snack.

3.) Pumpkin Rice Krispie Treats


From your leftover Rice Krispies from the previous recipe, you can try this pumpkin rice krispie treat recipe from Cincy Shopper! All you need is 6 Cups Rice Krispie Cereal, 3 tbs butter, 1 bag of marshmallows, red & yellow food coloring, 12 Tootsie Rolls, 1 Green Fruit Roll-up for her exact size amounts. She gives great step by step directions that anyone can follow.

4.) Harvest Hash Chex Mix

Again from One Little Project's website comes Harvest Hash Chex Mix! Just pile Rice Chex cereal, pretzels, bugles, candy corn, candy corn pumpkins, and Reece's Pieces in a bowl, mix it up, and let the magic of this salty and sweet combination take you through Halloween.

5.) Zombie Brain Cupcakes


Lastly, I present to you Zombie Brain Cupcakes from Sugar Hero's website. This can really work with any cupcake recipe, the cute Halloween aspect comes from the design on top. With a piping tool (or a plastic bag with a hole in it) and some pink frosting, you can create your own zombie brains! Anyone can complete this sweet design just in time for Halloween.


Hopefully this has satisfied the cravings of my fellow less talented, budget conscious, and just plain lazy people. Shoutout to you, my friends. Happy Halloween!!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
