Host a Halloween Brunch! I’ve been thinking a lot about brunches lately. Maybe it’s my intense love for quiche and bloody marys. Regardless, what a unique way to celebrate a holiday traditionally done at night. And so, I give you: The Benefits of Hosting a Halloween Brunch It’s family friendly. And since it’s during the daytime, you can absolutely tell all the kids to go outside and play some fun Halloween games. There are the classics like bobbing for apples and donuts on a string. Or, make an adorable “squash bowling” set and let them go to town. Brunch makes it perfectly acceptable to have a drink in the morning. After getting Johnny and
