Tomorrow is Halloween!

Tomorrow is my fav day–Halloween! I’m blogging about it today because I’ve got PJ Hoover posting on the actual day of Guilt Free Candy Consumption.

Tomorrow, I’ll be passing out candy, walking around the neighborhood and um, eating lots of candy, too.

Since I’m a total wimp, this movie–

I can hear you laughing!

Enjoy and fill yourself with enough of a sugary buzz that you’re ready for NaNoWriMo tomorrow! See you bright and early! 🙂

Remember, check out my giveaway and interview with PJ TOMORROW!

Halloween socks and randomness


My awesome Halloween socks! (There, you needed a visual EK!) So far, I’ve watched MONSTER HOUSE (adorable) and PRACTICAL MAGIC (Nicole and Sandra–a perfect onscreen pair!). I’ve got THE WITCHES and something else (I forget!) to watch next. I’ve also been considering the Johnny Depp version of SLEEPY HOLLOW…but I’m too scared. LOL I love me some JD, but don’t know if I can make it through the movie. People who have watched it, where does it rate on the scary factor?

This weekend, I might try a new recipe–white chocolate covered pretzel rods with little faces that make them ghosts. They sound cute and I think I’ll need a few hours off from drafting.

I’ll share pics of my weekend Halloween baking on Monday.

Halloween pics part 2 and presidential chocolates!

The famous Zombie from 2007 (recreated for ’08!)

Yep, more pics! Note how in the first pic, the sky is insanely blue. It was 85 degrees and I was muttering about how it MUST be colder for actual Halloween feelings to begin. 🙂 The decoration war has started in my neighborhood. Everyone’s trying to outdo each other with bigger, scarier and more elaborate decorations. Mine are simple, but I love them. The Decoration War of 2008 kind of reminds me of Matthew Broderick’s Christmas flop (I still love you, Mr. SJP!)– Deck the Halls. Except, obviously, people here are trying to best their neighbor’s pumpkins and candy offerings.

What if I gave out something like this to trick or treaters?

It’s presidential chocolate! I saw that on the news a few days ago and thought it was cool. So many jokes to make about that… 😉

Tomorrow, I’m being interviewed by another Florida magazine. I’m driving south to Ocala (Horse Capital of the World!) to meet the writer and have pictures taken. I’ll be taking my camera and hope I get a few good pics of the trip.

Halloween decorations! Pics galore!

Sooo, it’s time for Halloween decoration pictures! If you remember from last year’s assault of Halloween posts, it’s probably my favorite holiday. I absolutely adore Halloween and even though I’m too much of a wimp to watch scary movies (I hear chuckling, friends!) I love, love it.

Last year, I posted these on October 1. And pictures of Martha Stewart’s Zombie Craft here. Then, you’ve got your Halloween cookies. Finally, pics of me in my Regis and Kelly 3-D glasses. 😉

That was 2007. I’m kicking off Halloween 2008 with the above pics to start! There will be many more Halloween pics to come over the month. 🙂

Yesterday, I went to a Halloween outlet to look for a certain someone’s Halloween mask (they were OUT, boo!) and the displays were freaking scary! Fake blood…I, um, can’t handle it. Maggie
says I’m very Victorian with my fainting tendencies and I guess I can’t disagree. No, I didn’t faint from fake blood and super-creepy Halloween displays, but I could have. I think. Eek. And I wasn’t jumpy the rest of the day. No way. 😉

If you’ve got Halloween decorations or will be putting them up soon, I’m tagging YOU to post pics!
