Happy Halloween!
As some of you guys know-Halloween is my favourite Holiday because you can acceptably dress like a hooker and be crazy. Just kidding, but it is certainly one of my favourites.
This year I was Nicki Minaj. Oh glory days. How in the world I was convinced to go out after being a bus for 8 hours is beyond me but I did and it was fun. I chose to not to drink, and watch the drama unfold of parties. It’s hilarious to watch you know. Boys being sleezy, girls being grimey grimers, ya know.
I stayed out until roughly 1 drove someone home on my way and slept until 9. Why can’t I sleep in?
But that is enough of my Halloween adventures. I’m not going out tonight again too-although I’m sure I’ll be getting up Tuesday at 5:30 and see a few stragglers getting home from their Halloween parties.

As many of you know…I have a weird obsession with pumpkin. It’s just so good. I have to tell you my other favorite reason pumpkin is amazing. It automatically makes anything you cook good.
For instance, take pumpkin pancakes:
You could overcook them and they could be hard and crusty.
But the middle will still be so moist because of the pumpkin.
You guys all know my pumpkin pancake recipe over here…
I’ve tweaked it a little bit actually to include:
2 tablespoons of brown sugar
No really it makes all the difference
½ cup flour
1 scoop protein powder
1 packet sweetener
2 tablespoons brown sugar
½ cup pumpkin
½ cup water
1 egg
Mix, pour and griddle it up.
Well-I’ve got a date with children and passing out candy.
Question for you:
What are your plans for Halloween today?
What is the next festive pancake for the win?




I am loving the Nicki Minaj costume! And I am a big fan of your pumpkin pancakes AND your gingerbread ones! That container you sent to me lasted all of about two seconds in my house!
Nice Holly! Lovin’ the pink wig — did you fill up your pants to have a big booty too?
What about pecan pie pancakes?
OOH yummy!
Ha that is a fantastic costume.. the wig makes it
I am not doing anything to celebrate tonight… lame I know
I’m just passing out candy and studying for a theoretical test.
love it!
Awesome Nicki Minaj outfit! It’s amazing the things you see at parties when you don’t drink
Well we don’t celebrate Halloween here down under. But the kids I took the kids I was babysitting for out trick or treating. Since their neighborhood actually does celebrate this wonderful holiday…this is so rare in Australia! I had so much fun going round with them and then handing out candy to little kids later in the evening.
I totally agree with the pumpkin pancakes looking absolutely awful on the outside, but they still turn out awesome. Especially with greek yogurt and smothered in pancake syrup. YUMM-o.
And I went to a party sober once. I laughed the entire time but then got really mad because the beer spilled all over me I actually NOTICED (being sober) and I was disgusted.
I almost made pumpkin pancakes for dinner tonight again, after reading your post I am so wishing I did!
“Nicki, don’t stop you da bestest.” That is all.
I’m loving the nicki minaj costume! I didn’t dress up or go out this year. I had some plans, but to be honest this weekend was really rough with the injury and all, and I made my mom stay home from Boston because I wasn’t “mentally well” so I felt bad and watched movies with her instead. Still fun, just no cool costumes to show off.
Have you ever made cornbread pancakes? I guess that might not be a holiday flavor, but cornbread reminds me of thanksgiving. I think that would taste awesome!
Is that Nicki Minaj? The real one?
Oh wait. That’s just you. You guys are like twins.
(;
I’m a loser and did nothing for Halloween. Booooo. I wanted to, but I was working.
I wish I could have passed out candy to see all the costumes! Did you see any good ones? I saw a girl dressed up as a pineapple! haha
Please do a vlog of you singing/rapping a Nicki Minaj song. Please.
Also, I am making those pancakes for my next meal at home, be it dinner or late night snack. I don’t really give names to meals anymore to be honest. Breakfast for dinner, seriously ain’t no thang!
Halloween didn’t feel like a holiday, I had zero kids show up
On the plus side, more candy for me!
Yup, pumpkin rules. What’s your favorite Halloween (or non-halloween candy) of all time? Did you ever have Kinder Surprise in England?
I love Nicki Minaj!!! he costume is awesomesauce. I have all of the ingredients to make this delightful pancake recipe
I may even blog about it to spread the pancake love…
