unwind

Tonight it was my turn to host book club. We read a fabulous book - Unwind by Neil Shusterman. The premise starts with a civil war between Pro-Life and Pro-Choice Americans and the result is the dystopian society where children between the ages of 13 and 18 can be "unwound". I won't give more away, but I highly recommend this book. These are my favorite types of books! 

While I got the treats ready for bookclub, Miss Gwyneth noshed on a turkey burger. 

We are in full-Halloween-book reading mode. These are two of my new favorites for Gwyneth. I love the Night Before series.... we have them for nearly every holiday and big event (night before the tooth fairy, night before the first day of preschool, night before the first day of kindergarten....you get it, right?).

Pumpkin cookies

Pumpkin cupcakes. 'Tis the season. 

Gwyneth asked "is this it for all our hard work?". Um, I don't believe we really worked that hard setting out a few treats, but show us those muscles girlie...
