I’m totally calling it in today since I have a headache and have pumpkins to cook and a dinner to attend in a couple hours. So, instead of anything interesting here, go to Orange & Black: Spirit of Halloween - an entire blog about Halloween. It’s pretty awesome.

A month of Halloween: Day 10

We’ve all heard horror stories about children trick-or-treating and receiving poisoned candy or apples full or razor blades. I’m sure everyone had a version of the post-Halloween, “lets make sure the candy is safe but really Dad just wants to steal all your Tootsie Rolls” rigmarole that my siblings and I had to go through. [...]

A month of Halloween: Day 9

My Witchy Pants I’m not a big fan of Old Navy. I think it smells like child labour in there. But years ago I bought these flannel pajama pants on sale and I really love them. I even have a matching mug (where I keep all my Sharpies). Every so often I will put them away [...]

Picture taken at the Museo de la Ciudad, Leon, Guanajuato, Mexico. I have always thought it would be [...]

I don't know how far along you are right now (compared to your last 'about me' update), but with my first one, I was able to feel the kicks around 20 weeks! It's one of the coolest things ever.

BTW, what website do you write for? If you don't want to publicize it via comments, message me?

i have your glasses, but with rhinestones in the corners. and they're broken. cause the daughter stepped on them. but i loved them intact.
good luck with the Every Single Day (it's killing me but i hear some are thriving...)
