  1. 2:35Julie prepares sweet chili with maple sausage, ground beef, beans and tomato sauce.
  2. 4:50Cornbread preparations pause when Julie questions whether her stored cornmeal has gone rancid.
  3. 5:39The family inflates a commercial bounce house that serves as a side hustle for the boys.
  4. 6:41A construction-themed trunk-or-treat station features caution tape, a saw prop and candy.
  5. 8:23Julie makes pumpkin scones with white chocolate chips and glaze before the evening's costume outing.

Julie Deru has a sweet addition to her chili pot: maple sausage alongside the ground beef. Getting the cornbread ready is less straightforward. Unsure whether the stored cornmeal has survived the summer heat, she decides not to use it for the community event.

That kitchen detour is part of "Halloween Weekend Vlog | Chili, Pumpkin Scones & Family Fun," her only new upload this week, which has reached roughly 16,000 views. The weekend moves between painted Halloween rocks, a construction-themed trunk-or-treat station and a large bounce house that the boys are turning into a small earning opportunity. The next morning brings a less festive assignment: helping clear toilet paper scattered across the street during homecoming week.

Breakfast gets its own seasonal treatment, with white chocolate chips and glaze added to pumpkin scones. In the comments, viewers trade experiences of storing food in humid weather, remember painting rocks with their own families and compare chili-cook-off results. One says they used the same chili recipe for their own event.

The Halloween vlog is also Julie's busiest video right now, drawing substantially more daily views than "Everything I Ate in a Week | Realistic Family Meals." That earlier upload promised everyday meals for a family of seven, with a note that more autumnal cooking had followed since filming. Here are the chili pot and pumpkin breakfast to make good on that change.

Subscribers held steady at 225,000, while daily viewing across the channel is running well below its usual level. For Julie, this was a single-upload week with plenty packed into the weekend.
