Let's Talk Halloween + Easy-to-eat Candy Apples

You guys, how is it almost Halloween? My mind is blown! I also feel like there's extra pressure to go big this year since it's on a Saturday, right? Anywho - if you happen to find yourself in a costume bind then make sure to watch my video from last year with a few creative and easy ideas. 

In continuing my partnership with Kroger I've created this super simple candy apple recipe for any of your halloween party needs.  We’ve all been there, biting into a candy apple and thinking, "My teeth may get stuck in this thing!” The struggle is definitely real, but thanks to those newfangled things called knives, all teeth can stay intact. Delicious, easy-to-eat candy apples can be made. If you’re planning a Halloween party or just want to create a fun festive treat, try this recipe.
