Halloween was truly fun, as always...we had friends over for Chili that was so delicious--Thank You Megan! Megan took my mom, Gracie's old recipe and pumped it up ... me, a pescetarian...had 2-3 bowls...it was that good. I thought my vegetarian days were over, but alas, the next day meat and chicken smells made me nauseous once again...but I am contemplating having chili again every Halloween -- only my/our/Grace's/Megan's chili ! So yummy.
Mary and Walter and Nancy, dear friends for years (well, 40 years plus if you count T's association with them!) came over to help hand out candy, chat, and just have a great time at home. Gracie came over too--thank you mom! And er...we somehow got Grace down the steps to the little "Parisian" room downstairs to spend the night...but the stairs proved too daunting the next morning (how the heck did we even get mom down those steep steps? A bit of spirits in the mix?) ... but mom did get out through the basement stairs and make it home to her humble abode...it was fun to have mom here over night (something repeated at Thanksgiving--this time, on the couch upstairs! ... photos to come).
But I digress...there are more pictures to be put up, from the Nikon, as always...
This little pumpkin of Graham's design caved in the morning after...awwww.
When we rean out of candy, Graham made a sign that basically told people the house was haunted, or something along those lines, and to go away! It didn't work--the bell rang until all hours of the night. Teenagers!
