Here's some pictures of my Halloween costume...

I'm only going to a party tonight. I don't think I have any plans for Halloween proper (though my birthday is the day before... woo).

(p.s., if you can't tell who I am, here's a clue: Raoul Duke)

We have a preschool in my high school and you can take a 'child development' class where basically you hang out with 2-5 year olds all day. On Halloween the little kids pair up with one of the HS students and they go around to all the classrooms and each teacher has a big bowl of candy that they can take some of. It's really really cute. All their little costumes and bags of candy and the hyperness in the first hour. (Except they all have to hide in classrooms during class changes otherwise they get stampeded by the big scary highschoolers)

This is our son's first Trick-or-Treat Halloween. He just turned 3. We asked him what he wanted to be and he replied excitedly, "I want to be a bee!!" So, this weekend we will be making his bee costume. I wanted to make a little flower costume for our baby girl, but time has just run out. She would have hated it anyway, but it would have been cute! I will post a picture of Spencer in his bee costume after the big night!

Bananaphone costume. Saw this at a local Halloween parade that my school's marching band was in.

i almost went to a halloween party last night, but i couldn't get a ride. i didn't have a costume. i'm one of those people who throws things together last minute, but i was going to go as an undercover cop (huge copout [pun not intended]) by wearing my fake sheriff's badge on the inside of my coat.

i suck at halloween.

There are only two people in costume at my workplace. The woman at the next desk over is a witch. I am a Clone Trooper. Pictures when (if) I have any.

you're supposed to dress up for halloween

I was a pixie, with homemade(albeit, droopy) wings. Good thing about having a non-American accent is that you can pull off the 'Yeah, this is my first Halloween! It's so exciting! I've never heard of half of this candy!' Then they give you more candy

It was strangely nice weather here last night too. Low 60s I'd guess.

What's this? My neices in London have been HUGE Halloweeners for 10 years. London goes more nuts than NYC (at least their neighborhood). Is the rest of the isles unaware?

Where I lived Halloween was a pretty negative thing. Lots of tricks and people asking for money rather than candy. I dunno if it's just where we lived or... *shrug* Where I live now people are way more into it.

Nope it's not a big thing - though getting more so with every passing year / attempts to merchandise another day between august bank holiday and xmas... but I saw one kid dressed in ice hokcey gear (I presume he wasn't on his way to rob a bank)

Then again, I live on the top floor of a gated community so if some dressed up kid made it that far, I'd feel obliged to offer him more than candy. A steak, maybe ...

I put a pumpkin in the window. Pumpkin soup and risotto the rest of the week.

Yummy! Phil made pumpkin soup too, and roasted the seeds.
