Arsenic and Old Lace

Who doesnt love to curl up on the couch with some carmel popcorn, apple cider, and candy corn with peanuts and watch a good scary movie during Halloween season.  Well since I swore away horror movies a few years ago I have gone to the "classic" scary movies.  My favorite for Halloween is arsenic and old lace. Who could resist a young cary grant, in a romantic/ scary movie?  If you like old movies, this is a must see!

They certainly don't make movies like this anymore!  (and truthfully, it is kinda scary)

My absolute favorite fall dessert.  So yummy, I made this last night for my sister and brother in law. 

PUMPKIN CRISP

1 lg. can pumpkin or 3 c.
1 lg. can evaporated milk
1 c. sugar
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
3 eggs
1 box yellow cake mix
1 c. nuts, chopped
2 sticks butter, melted

Mix together pumpkin, milk, sugar, cinnamon and eggs in a large bowl (add clove or nutmeg if you like). Pour into a pan. Pour dry cake mix over top of mix. Sprinkle nuts over mix evenly.  Carefully pour melted butter over top of cake mix, distributing evenly.  Bake at 350 degrees for 50-60 minutes. 

I like to serve this with whip cream made from my whipper (heavy whipping cream and a little honey).
