Ingredients
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 package yellow cake mix
1 package instant vanilla pudding mix
4 eggs
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup dark rum
1 cup BUTTER
1/4 cup water
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup dark rum

Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Grease and flour a 10 inch Bundt pan. Sprinkle chopped nuts evenly over the bottom of the pan.
In a large bowl, combine cake mix and pudding mix. Mix in the eggs, 1/2 cup water, oil and 1/2 cup rum. Blend. Pour batter over chopped nuts in the pan.
Bake in the preheated oven for 1-hour, (or do the toothpick no-stick trick). Let sit for 10 minutes in the pan, then turn out onto serving plate. Brush glaze over top and sides. Allow cake to absorb glaze and repeat until all glaze is used.
Glaze recipe: In a saucepan, combine butter, 1/4 cup water and 1 cup sugar. Bring to a boil over medium heat and continue to boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir in 1/2 cup rum.

Lol. Below are a couple of screenshots, showing the Monster Grrhoof, that I was talking about in my latest radio commercial. When your kids play Sesame Street, Once Upon a Monster, they get to teach Grrhoof how to not scare the cute little Puffalopes. Grrhoof is cute, isn’t he?

So in this frame, Elmo and Cookie are teaching Grrhoof how to be more “sociable” lol. Your kids control the action (with the Kinect motion sensor) and help teach Grrhoof how to dance, wave, and just be silly. Fun!

Here, you see Elmo and Cookie about to take the NEW improved Grrhoof to meet the Puffalopes!

My kids LOVE the cute, cuddly, fluffy Puffalopes. Especially my 7 year old!

Like I said in the radio commercial, I can’t tell you how this chapter ends – lol. Guess you’ll hafta have fun yourself and find out

Bartender Jason McGrady of Seattle’s Sazerac Restaurant, inside the Hotel Monaco, was so inspired by the series, he mixed up a handful of specialty drinks inspired by Stephanie Meyer’s series.

And there’s a local connection.

McGrady’s restaurant is located in the closest major city to Forks, Wash., where the Twilight series is set, and fans pass through Seattle when they come to take Twilight-themed tours in Forks, he says.

“One of the most important parts of my job as a bartender is keeping up with what’s current and what’s hot,” McGrady tells PEOPLE. “And in this part of the world, Twilight is definitely hot.”

Tiny Candy Bars and Chocolates…

It says that you care about Halloween and traditions and children and family values.

Sweet Tarts — Now & Laters, and other NON Chocolates…

Like the person who gives out the little “party sized” treat, you’re into Halloween and doing your duty, but you want everyone to think that you’re a little bit wacky and crazy.

Tootsie Rolls…

You’re probably a very cool and stylish person who has a great wardrobe and a very well-appointed house. People don’t think to ask you for advice, but when you give it, it’s always spot on.

Lollipops..

You are the kind of person who really feels like he has to give out Halloween candy but you’re either too busy or lazy to get to the store before the last possible second, so you have to buy the only thing left.

Full Candy Bars..

You’re just an annoying show off. You want to impress all the parents in the hood that you make so much money or you’re so cool that you are splurging on giant sized candy bars. Either that or you’re so emotionally scarred from childhood that you need everyone’s approval, including a bunch of kids you’re never going to see again.
