HAVE A LAUGH!
BARKS FROM BELLA The Worst Halloween Ever
HALLOWEEN COOKIE PIZZA
Have you ever heard of a day called “Halloween”? I just found out about it last year, and Mom said it’s coming up all over again. I guess that makes sense because the leaves are turning pretty colors again, and it’s chilly in the mornings when I take my first pawsteps outside. Still, I don't like the reminder. Last Halloween was the worst day ever! It all started when Mom looked at me funny, like she was sizing me up. I thought maybe I was getting a new collar, but nope — she said I had to be part of a “costume contest.” Then she disappeared to a place called “Walmart,” and when she came back, she was holding something strange. It was like a piece of brown cloth with green ears attached.
This one's for the candy corn lovers! This “pizza” is far from traditional, but once you try it, you might find yourself making it every October!

1 roll Pillsbury Sugar Cookie Dough 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup candy corn
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup vanilla frosting (store-bought or homemade)
“Look Bella!” Mom said. “You’re going to be Baby Yoda!”
I did NOT want to get into that costume. It looked too small, and besides — I’m a Bella, not a Yoda! Mom had to push and pull to squeeze me into the outfit, and I grumbled the whole time. I already have a fur coat on, why do I need to wear something else? Finally, she trapped me in it. It was awful! I was so embarrassed. The floppy green ears looked silly, and I felt like I was going to bust out of the brown part any second. I tried to make Mom take it off, but instead of listening, she started taking pictures! I couldn’t believe it. I decided that if she wouldn't take the embarrassing thing off, I’d roll my eyes at her in all of her photos. Then she’d see that next year, I should just go as myself! When I finally got to take the costume off, it felt SO good. Later, I asked my friend Sadie about Halloween. She said sometimes costumes are fun. Other dogs have gotten to be police officers, superheroes, and other cool things. That might have been okay, but Baby Yoda? No way! Fortunately, Mom promised me this morning that she’s never going to dress me up for Halloween again. So, this year might be fun after all. Bella
