Oh, my teeth hurt. I'm really intrigued by the pumpkin caramels. I've been wanting to make caramels for some time, but the pumpkin part is really intriguing.

I may make all of them!! Except the jellies candy. They never do it for me. Don't know why. Well, better step up my exercising in preparation!

I love the martini at the end, just like our house after 10,000 children have banged on our door for candy ;)

This post arrives just in time. Thank you. I'm having family over this weekend for a casual evening and I want to stick to finger foods, especially since there are children coming. I see several possibilities. Yay!
