Ghost Making and Pumpkin Carving Time!

The last couple of days have been real busy around here. I still can’t believe it is only a day away to Halloween!!! Here are some pictures of us making Ghosts for our front porch:

I’ll have to get more pictures of the front porch at dusk tomorrow… until then, I wanted you to know that they boys did NOT run from me when I took out the pumpkin guts this year. Sigh… Each boy drew a picture on the pumpkin…

Both helped take out ‘seeds’… no they wouldn’t touch it nor take out anything else.

Fun With Popcorn

   Posted by: vw bug    in pd

UPDATE: After buying some Christmas tins at a garage sale to use to give away some baked goods… I realized I still didn’t have any Halloween tins. And came up with a great idea… they would be perfect for handing out candy! Yo, Sis… maybe next year I can get you one? I know you get a ton of kids.

I have been craving something salty lately. Usually I eat potato chips or Tostidos… but lately I have been eating popcorn. I usually just eat the microwave kind that you get at the store… There are some good popcorns out there, I have eaten them. Until I started eating it again, I haven’t thought about it. When I was younger, I remember eating popcorn someone gave us from the Popcorn Factory. It was good… if memory serves me right, it was the caramel corn. Yummy.

It is getting to be that time of year again. Have you ever given Popcorn gift baskets? Not me. I just don’t think about it. Not sure why. I like eating it if given to me. I also collect tins. Most of the time the popcorn comes in tins. Hmmm. I have tins from all over the world and mostly for the winter season. I do not have tins for Halloween. I’ll have to see if the Popcorn Factory have any tins I like and then sweet talk my hubby into getting some. He is a huge popcorn eater and I’ll let him have most of the popcorn if I can have the tin. Sounds like a good deal to me. How about you?
