1) An unquantified amount of sugar has been ingested by all female members of the South Bend Hahn family due to festive merrymaking in honor of this super-awesome feast.

And a clearer one including some friends with the cutest Saint James and Theresa of Avila in the world:
6) I made these incred sugar cookies discovered from my Midwest Living magazine but which have a recipe home on Annie's Eats. I have never tasted a better sugar cookie in. my. life.

.. I am learning that more and more Catholics aren't doing Halloween. I'm almost there mostly due to a kid with too many food allergies, but our school celebrates and it's hard to escape it. Did you grow up with Halloween? I did but I think it's gotten more sinister and creepy over the years.. Looks like you had a pretty awesome party!
