Preparing for Halloween
Robert and I have the will power of moths (shouldn’t go near the light, but it’s sooooo tempting…). I bought several sacks of candy for Halloween and hid them in the linen closet so we wouldn’t get into them. Robert found them, opened one of the sacks and started eating some candy. After chastising him, I held out my hand for a couple pieces of chocolate. It looks like I’m going to have to buy another sack of candy. Shame on us!
I finally got around to hanging up some decorations so the house looks welcoming to all the neighborhood kids. I plan on picking out a pumpkin or two today for carving into jack-o-lanterns. I love carving pumpkins! Perhaps I’ll turn them into pumpkin pies after the holiday. Yum! (As if we needed more sweets around this house. We’re both starting to look a little pudgy.)
