Happy weekend and Happy Halloween! We know this Halloween might look a little different than most, but we hope you’ve got big plans to indulge in some candy and perhaps some pumpkin cookies anyway (sharing a recipe below!). And in addition to the treats, here are a few ideas for the weekend:
Devils Night Downtown: In lieu of the traditional haunted house, how about a self-led haunted stroll through downtown? Grace Siplon and Megan Stacey created an audio experience that will immerse you in the story of suspicious deaths, creepy book clubs, and people with extra shadows. You control it from your phone and complete it at your own pace, and after reading the story teaser, we can’t wait to dive in - details here!
Haunted Nights: If you’re up for a little something spooky this weekend, Haunted Nights has a paranormal investigation scheduled at the Old Washington County Jail in Salem. Tickets are going fast, so head here for details or follow them on Facebook for future events!
Trick or Treat on the Farm: Nettle Meadow Farm in Thurman is hosting a family friendly, socially distanced event on the farm this Saturday. Kiddos can meet and feed the animals (who will also be dressed up!), and get some safe trick or treating in too. Find out the scoop here!
Pumpkin Cookies: With more cold and snow (?!) in the forecast, you can bet I’ll be baking this weekend. A major fall favorite for us are pumpkin cookies, and the recipe says it all - they really do melt in your mouth. So good. Here’s the recipe if you’re baking this weekend too!
Have a great weekend!
