Halloween play date

I had the great opportunity from Chinet to use items from their new Bakeware collection.  These awesome dishes can go right in the oven and then to the table!  Perfect for those nights when you'd rather not have lots of dishes (which is every night for me).

My BIG plan was to have several hot dishes ready for Halloween night.  The weather in Florida didn't care about that plan.  It's been pretty hot lately, so I decided to have a play date and use my Chinet Bakeware dishes as serving ware.  They worked perfectly!!!

Here are a few pictures from our very informal get together.

Of course, I had to have sweets.  Super simple!  Store bought cookies, icing and candy eyes/m&ms made perfect Mummy & mini-Mummy cookies!

I found some really cute pumpkin shaped cheese crunchies from Target.

The small oval Chinet Bakeware dish was the perfect size for these snacks!

Target also had orange & black tortilla chips that I just had to get.  

And all the kids love queso..

so a jar of store bought cheese dip topped with an olive spider made another spider-ific snack.

The large oval Chinet Bakeware dish held a TON of chips!!

We also had hot dogs for the kids..no pictures of those because they were eaten pretty quickly :)

I did use one of the square Chinet Bakeware dishes for the hot dogs.  

The Bakeware comes with a clear plastic lid, so the dogs would have stayed warm*

*if they had lasted that long :)

The kids played ball outside and had a good time drawing with chalk.

The kids each got goodie bags filled with candy, glow bracelets and a spiky ball.

And just to make sure the grown ups weren't left out, I whipped up a batch of sangria.

I was lucky to work with Chinet and I can't wait to use the rest of the Bakeware I have!!

Have you tried any of their new products?  I'd love to hear what you think of them!
