Happy Halloween

Since we had so much rain last night we improvised our Halloween festivities.  It included building a fort in the living room and turning off all the lights.  I gave Creamie a little flashlight and let her “scare” us as many times as she wanted.  She was laughing hysterically.  Finally about 7:30 we got our one and only trick-or-treater.  And since it had stopped raining we put the costume back on and went to visit a few of the single grandma’s in our neighborhood.  They were thrilled to see Creamie and she was thrilled beyond belief that they were all giving her candy.

[ This is an original fruit crate label from the 1960’s.  It would have been plastered on the side of a box of pumpkins (The brand was “Halloween” ) before it was shipped.  I kind of have a soft spot in my life for vintage fruit crate labels. Pears in particular. But that’s another post. ]

I’m really going to try hard to get caught up on emails this week.  That’s the plan.  And I’m hoping to finish up a super easy fall tutorial for tomorrow.  Happy Halloween everyone!
