My mom had some women over from her work Friday night for a party and I was on cupcake duty. My mom chose the Chai Latte cupcakes and the Maple Cupcakes with Sugared Walnuts from VCTOTW to fit in with the autumn theme of her party. She even went out and bought a cupcake stand to display them all (and you can see in the picture that some were already taken off and eaten before I was able to get a picture!). Everyone loved both varieties, but I think the Chai Latte cupcakes needed either a glaze or frosting on top because most people chose the Maple ones because of the frosting. Either way, everything was a hit! Also, as a side note- the sugared walnuts that go along with the Maple cupcakes are the best things ever. I had about half of them left over after making the cupcakes and my sister and I ate all of them because we just couldn't stop snacking on them.

I love Halloween too! Are you dressing up? I plan on dressing up even when I am 80 years old :o)
all of your food looks so darn good. im getting hungry right now just looking at those cupcakes. and i'm the same with maple glazed pecans- they never last in my house... or my hands haha
Halloween is the best. Are you dressing up? I have a party to go to and no costume yet!
I need to mark that spicy tempeh with rotelle as a must try. I've been meaning to for while now.
Oh and your cupcakes look awesome. They both sound perfect for fall and I wouldn't be able to stop snacking either!
Now it's only FOUR days until Halloween - hooray!! :0)
Your food never ceases to amaze me - yum!!!
I'm so sad, I'm going to miss Halloween this year! I need to start driving that afternoon so that I can get to Boston in time for VegFest... Have an -extra- good time for me, okay?
Unfortunetely I didn't have time to get a costume or make plans for halloween because of my move across country. I'm so sad as I've never missed a year and I love dressing up.
But those cupcakes are cheering me up, I love the chai tea ones plain. I think it's all the spices.
I've been meaning to make that tofu dish too but never get around to it. Now that I know how good it looks I might have to make it very soon!
