3 Reasons I Love the Week Before Halloween...
There are certain things that only happen during very specific and limited parts of the year.
The maple by our mailbox turns an amazing firey pink...which lasts only a few days before the leaves fall to the ground.
The hyacinths in my front garden all bloom at once....but their amazing frangrance only lingers for 2 or three days.
The gingerbread latte at Starbucks. Need I say more?
These abbreviated times come and go quickly....but I sure enjoy them while they are here.
This week preceeding Halloween has some of those things....things that are ONLY going to occur for a limited time.....so I have to share them while I can.
1. Little girls in spider dresses....
2. Purple and orange cauliflower (aka....BRAINS) for dinner...
3. Smashed pumpkins all over the playroom rug.
("Whoops" says Ethan...."It just slipped out of my hands....just like this!" "Yeah...." says Carolyn, "It goed DOWN!")
Uhhhh.....yeah. It goed down. Way down.
Well....maybe we can roast the pumpkin seeds?

I think Ethan was implying that it was the pumpkins fault......
I love the brains for dinner idea, may have to try that next year. Hope you all had a fun Halloween
