Nothing big. Mika wore her Hallowe'en bandanna yesterday for our walk. I wore my black t-shirt with a glow-in-the-dark space alien face on it. <:P Got a few grins & smiles. More houses had their front porches decorated than I'd seen earlier in the week, but still a lot of "party poopers." <:// Still, given last year we only had about 10 trick or treaters, we had quite a few this year, and went through most of the candy we'd bought. Most, too, were little kids in great costumes. :D We were really glad the holiday seemed to be enjoyed by more kids this year. ;)) Today will just be a quiet hang around home type day. Will go for a walk, of course, with Mika. <:P Later will take down the Hallowe'en decorations but leave up the fall stuff on the porch and mantelpiece. Since tonight it will be dark earlier due to the time change, I planned to make beef stew with cornbread for dinner. Seemed like a good menu for the first night when it gets dark earlier. :)
Blessings,
Gypsy
