Robert's Thai Pumpkin soup with homemade croutons (looks like baby food here but was very very good)
Jennifer brought an excellent batch of homemade salsa. (I know, none of my food pics are appetising.)
Look! It is Mabelel. (The first person who knows that reference wins a prize)
My BFF finally joined in after his rehearsal.
A view from my seat.
Preparing to scare the children.
I sat behind this pumpkin all night and spoke into a voice modifier. Even the adults thought the Pumpkin was talking to them. Robert and I had worked up a whole "act" by the end of the night.
Detail from Roberts yard.
Muffin Face and the scary host.
I love Halloween. HNS and I were walking to lunch in a busy business section of downtown and every 10 people were dressed up as something. A bee. A Pirate (Pirates were big this year). A butterfly. These are adults. At work. It is fun to see them as they are doing a normal activity like standing in line at the Thai cart and talking to a colleague. I wished this was the case everyday. No one looked embarrassed, or like they lost a bet. No one tried to make excuses for how they looked. They were just there, like, "yeah, I'm a bee. Get over it."
