About half of my office dressed up for Halloween today, which is awesome. We have a very convincing hippy and a fantastic pirate, among others. I wimped out and am only wearing demon horns - but they’re pretty great demon horns. I was thinking of going to the parade tonight but I suspect Chris and I will end up carving pumpkins and handing out candy instead, which isn’t such a bad way to spend a Monday night.

Over the weekend we had occasion to purchase a large number of Halloween cupcakes. We ended up getting them from Sugar Sweet Sunshine, which I can’t recommend enough. The decorations were great (monsters, witches, pumpkins, ghosts, etc) and the cupcakes themselves were divine. We got an assortment, so I believe I had at least a bite of almost every flavor, and without exception they were delicious. The staff were also very helpful even though my request was fairly last-minute. Definitely check them out.

I’m a little sad that the Halloween season more or less ends today, but I’ll probably leave the site all spookified for at least a little while longer. And I can say that on the whole, this was a pretty great October. Happy Halloween!
