Sunday Linky Party #83 + Goodies

Happy Sunday all! It's less than two weeks until Halloween (which, unfortunately, falls on a Wednesday this year). Instead of making Halloween October 31, it should just fall on the last Saturday of every October, kind of like how Thanksgiving always falls on the second-to-last Thursday of every November. Isn't that a great idea? Now how do we get them to make that change?? Well, hope you enjoy this week's features!

For something other than your typical pumpkin, (maybe something more chic rather than scary, to fit your style, of course ;), you can go the neon pumpkin route, like Meeha Meeha!

I've always wanted a butterfly specimen frame, but it's a little out of my price range at the moment, so I am excited to try this faux moth specimen frame by Twigg Studios! Also check out her other tutorials: faux wood drawers, Eline Pellinkhof inspired pumpkin, neutral Halloween decor, and natural history pumpkin.

Keep your skin moisturized AND give it a little glow by using this pear shimmer dry skin balm by Soap Deli News. Way to be practical and glamourous! Try her homemade deodorant, too.

Replace your current lampshade with this beachy lampshade by With a Blast. You'll have to figure out how to gather your own branches and tie them together, but that shouldn't be too hard. Check out her beach-inspired bookshelf, too.

If you love cinnamon rolls, you will love this cinnamon pull-apart bread! This looks so delicious and fun to eat :) Find it at High Heels and Grills. Try the pretzel bites, pumpkin sugar cookies, and the peaches n' cream french toast, too!

For some yummy fall-inspired goodies, make these apple caramel cupcakes with cream cheese frosting, by Will Cook for Smiles. For something festive, try her "Vampire's Weakness" a.k.a. blood orange spritzer!

Here's a "for dummies" recipe for making your own yogurt (which is perfect for me!). Thanks to Don't Waste the Crumbs. Try her very little bother oat bread as well.

Tom khaa gai, or chicken soup with lemongrass is seriously delicious! I love Thai soups so I'm glad Meine Kochlust has provided a recipe :) Give this a try for something different tonight.

For some very simple cookies that doesn't require many ingredients, make this harvest spice chocolate chip pudding mix cookies (whew, quite a long name) from Shaken Together!

Lastly, this bbq chicken nachos dish is perfect for a Sunday sports-watching party! Get this recipe from Dishing with Leslie and pair with her chicken chimichangas.
