Cozy Loungewear under $35

Hey friends, I’m back with another loungewear haul featuring Joyspun from Walmart! We all know that my husband thinks I have more loungewear and pajamas than I do friends. And maybe that’s true, but that’s ok because pajamas are a lot like friends. You can always count on them to be there waiting for you ready to hug you when you get home. They’re with you when you eat your favorite snacks and watch your favorite shows cuddled up on the couch. SO actually maybe they’re even better than friends & that’s exactly why I encourage you to scoop up more of these cozy & comfy pieces who are always available & ready to snuggle up at home. The best part is that these are all under $35 & available online & in-store at Walmart!

This cardigan is so soft. I went with a medium for a more oversized fit, but went with my regular size small in the tank and wide leg pants.

You can do all of this in a crock pot too if you prefer, but I suggest browning your meat first. I also add a little garlic powder & a dash of oregano.

Halloween Candy Board Ideas

Hey everyone, I hope you’re all having a great week so far. I mentioned yesterday that I missed my flight to Dallas because you know…mom life! BUT I took advantage of the extra time and spent it with the kids and I also put together something fun for you all. nWith Spooky Season🎃 coming up, I thought it would be to create a fun Halloween Candy board to inspire your own festive treats for any parties that you might be hosting or attending. I ordered everything from Walmart and conveniently had it delivered to my house to make these adorable spider🕷& ghost 👻 cookies! This is such a fun activity for the kids to decorate! You don’t need to make an entire candy board to impress your guests though, you can just take a few of these sweet ideas to incorporate into your dessert!

halloween candy board

Here is a list of all the candy we included on our Halloween Treat Board from Walmart:

 Brach’s Halloween Classic Candy Corn Bag | Candy Corn is a must for a Halloween treats whether you like it or not. I actually don’t love Candy Corn, but I love how much color it brings to the board.

Wilton Edible Black and White Candy Eyeball Sprinkles | We used these for the eyes on the spider cookies

GHIRARDELLI White Vanilla Flavored Melting Wafers | We melted these white chocolate wafers to make the ghost cookies

Betty Crocker Black Cookie Decorating Icing | We used the icing to make the eyes on the ghosts and the legs on the spiders.

Nutter Butter Family Size Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies | These cookies are perfect making ghosts or mummies.

Flipz White Fudge Pretzels | I like to use white chocolate on the board to help break up all of the brown. I also suggest white Kit Kats too.

Chocolate Chip Cookies, Oreos & Fudge Stripe Cookies help fill large spaces on the Candy Board. Also, there are plenty of festive treats you can make with the extra cookies.

REESE’S, PIECES Peanut Butter Candies | These bring a lot of color to the board not to mention the fact of how delicious they are.

Reese’s, Miniatures Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups | Spread some dark icing on the wide part of the candy and then place them upside down on top of the the sugar cookies to make the spider cookies. The icing is meant to help them stick.

Twix | Twix is my favorite chocolate candy so I of course had to include it on my treat board.
