Party??

I didn't really plan on having a Halloween party, but at the last minute I suddenly realized I wanted to do SOMETHING. Tuesday I surprised Joseph with Halloween decorations and a spooky salad. The following day I emailed some guests (uh my sister, her roommate, my husband, and a friend) and then started devising a little ghoulish menu. For dinner Sara and I whipped up ginger pumpkin soup and some little cheesy biscuit sticks (add a slivered almond as a 'nail') that I like to call witches fingers and for dessert frosted sugar cookies. No Halloween would be complete without watching Charlie Brown and the Great Pumpkin. I don't know how much of a "Party" it was, but it was a nice little get-together and didn't keep us out too late....as was the case the year before. The truth is I really can't wait to have kids to dress up in darling little outfits and parade around the neighborhood until their pillowcases (that's what we used to use) are so full they can hardly heft them.....oh boy, the things I have to look forward to!



Who wouldn't be excited for that! The little bee is my friend's niece, I took trick-or-treating last year..
