Bag 'O Bones
How about munching on a tasty but slightly horrifying Halloween treat? We'll show you how to make a cute but scary snack you can make at home for your boys and ghouls called "Bag of Bones"!
BAG OF BONES
2 c meltable white chocolate
Pretzel sticks
Mini marshmallows
baking parchment
microwave-safe bowl
spatula
Melt chocolate in microwave-safe bowl, starting with one minute. Stir. Continue melting at 30-second intervals and stirring afterwards until chocolate is smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
Put a marshmallow on each end of a pretzel stick. Holding stick as close to one marshmallow as you can, dip the other end into the chocolate. Shake off some of the excess, but not all. Place on parchment to dry.
When chocolate is dry (about 15 minutes), gently pick up the stick from the chocolate-covered end and dip the other end into the chocolate. Shake off a little, and place it back on the parchment with the dry flat side down. Wait 15+ minutes, and you've got your BAG OF BONES!!

Manly Minute: 5 Bad States For Women
Based on recently released Census Bureau data, women made up almost half of the workforce last year. Yet, even working full-time and year-round, they were paid only 79 cents for every dollar men made. The wage gap varies considerably between states. Women receive 86 cents for every dollar men make in New York, for example, while in Louisiana, women are paid just 66% of what men earn.
