Happy Halloween!! And a Blessed Samhain! This is what I wore to the office today, Lol. 

Greetings and welcome!!  Don't worry... I do so hope you will join myself and my companions for a bite to eat and a cup of tea.  You will!!  Hip, hip, Huzzah!!  Which cup do you prefer?  I'll pour you the white.  Don't mind the spiders, they just sleep in the saucer.  Would you care for some cheese?  It appears someone else would.  And someone else is eyeing the mouse.  Now, Miss Samhain, is that anyway to treat a guest?  Would you care for a cupcake?  Add your own toppings.  Mom thinks the icing tastes just right.  More tea please.  There are spirits in the crystal skull.  Please help yourself.  Are you having fun, and enjoying the tea?  And do you have anything you might like to share with Miss Zoe.  She will gladly help.  So will Miss Samhain, especially if it ...

We went to Pennsylvania over the weekend to attend the first Halloween party of the season at the home of my friends Jen and Chris. Their theme was to come as a cartoon, so I was Snow White and Seth was a viking from How To Train Your Dragon.

Too silly? I don't know, but I kind of love it. We shall see. Speaking of my favorite Fairy Tale, my Halloween costume arrived today. It's Snow White, only a little sexy, and it lights up!! OMG!! I could not possibly resist that. It's from one of the super smutty costume groups, but it's not near as bad as most, though it is really short. I got ruffled pants for under it so my butt doesn't show. All I need now is a black wig. I bought the gloves, tights, rufflies, and I'm wearing shoes I already own. My first Halloween party of the season is this weekend. I am so excited!! We will be driving over to PA to my friends Jen and Chris' house. Jen told me tonight that they are having a cereal buffet. I don't know what that means exactly, but I think it sounds a...
