Friday – 31/10/2014 – Be afraid … be very afraid … Halloween is here!

*peers* in the cauldron to see what kind of ‘brew’ is bubbling there ….. might have to try a swipe …. aaahhhhhhhhhhhh – good witches brew!

…. went for an early dinner, and waiting for dark, so we can walk down to see the trick r treaters ….. so much fun to stroll the neighborhood and see all the costumes! …. brings fond memories of when my children were little ….

Mmmm, the brew in the cauldron really hits the spot! For me, it tastes like hot cider 🙂
Deb, the giraffe baby vid is awesome!

Hi MS – had to look up caipirinha, it sounds very refreshing!
Enjoy your day! Not sure how late I’ll be up but maybe see you later and see what else the cauldron serves up.

Aww, sweet Gavin! Our kitties were glad to see us come home too. We don’t go out after dinner very often. Took the kids trick-or-treating and they got their fill of candy….happy boys.

Grand total of 5 kids. Gave out mini 3 musketeers, Milky Way, twix, & snickers. Glad they are bite size, will use leftovers to garnish desserts for the holidays. Oh and I’m sure we will eat a bunch of them too!

Nothing wrong with repeat costumes. Hey, as long as there’s candy! Great costumes! The error msg is genius!
I still have 2 of hubby’s masks from when he was a kid. Would never be able to use them, as they’re fragile and only have lasted because of the protective plastic mold they get stored in. I keep them because you just don’t see masks like these anymore.
When I was a kid most of us were almost always hobos. We could add as many layers of flannel shirts as necessary (raided brothers’ closet) depending on the weather. pillowcases held a lot of candy too.
Sat on the front steps with neighbor’s young girls. Got hugs and heard all about their day, and admired Comet, who was looking out the door. If it wasn’t so late I would have had them come in, but they were getting tired. Will see if they can come over and play with him one if these days, I think Comet would be great with kids – would just have to take care that he doesn’t stick his claws out.
I’ve been enjoying hot cider, and the house is toasty warm with the woodburner going.

…. well, the blocks around our neighborhood were FULL of little trick or treaters …. so cute! saw lots of the girl from Frozen, many other princesses, ninjas (the turtles have made a comeback), Xmen, the avengers, and my favorite of all was my nephew – a carrot! he’s 7th grade at that ‘too cool’ stage to really want to dress up, so he wore an orange shirt, orange shorts and a green baseball cap …. I had to LOL!

…. oh, and lots of zombies too this year ….

…. the cauldron just served up a hot toddy for me, so I’m headed up to bed to sip on it and watch my shows…. have a great rest of Halloween all!

Joan, bet if the kids played with the feather sticks, Comet would be in heaven 🙂

Guess there were about 500 or so T or T kids in our neighbourhood, I know that my doorbell was rang quite a few times…don’t know why since the porch light was off and nothing decorated in the front at all. I was trying to nap before coming into ‘this place’ tonight but it was worth a try anyways….if I had been awake I would have passed out candy and looked at all the cute little costumes, sigh. Grandaugther Becca was Anna 🙂
