The Walking Dead Zombie Cake Pops

I realize that Halloween was a month or so ago, but for those of us who are fans of AMC's The Walking Dead, zombie season is now. (Although the show is on hiatus right now until late 2011). For the premiere of the show, me and my zombie loving boyfriend decided to make "zombie cake pops!"

About the weekend... last weekend in fact, when I was supposed to write this post... ugh. Whenever you only have one day for a weekend off from work, it's never long enough. There's barely time to figure out it's the weekend much less do anything about it. By the time you're done with breakfast you've realized "shoot, my weekend's almost over, today is it, and then tomorrow it's back to work, bright and early" (or in my case dark and early- 4 am is an obscene time to have to wake up).

Hopefully, you had a nice big yummy breakfast with all sorts of delightful things to eat. I'm not much a breakfast eater, myself. So there's no yummy Sunday morning meal for me. Truth be told most weekends I'm lucky to be up before lunch.

I know that some people are not going to want me to say this but.... it's almost fall. Granted officially summer doesn't end until late September, but for me summer ends when school begins. I know fall is coming when I start to have back to school nightmares. Forgotten tests, lost assignments, forgotten clothes... these are the essence of my dreams from the beginning of August until September starts. It doesn't matter if I'm going back to school or not, I still have the nightmares. But once the dreams settle down and fall really begins it's all about leaves and oranges and golds. One of our major goals for fall is to try and make it out to Ohio. I've only ever driven through but D assures me that I will love it. One distinctly Ohioan candy that I know I like is the buckeye.
