It's Spooky Out There!

The sun has dipped below the horizon and the moon is not yet out. Here in rural Maine, that means it's pitch black out there right now - a perfect night for spooks and goblins to be out and about. Gratefully, we have a long, dark road to our house and it's been several years since we've had any Halloween visitors. Yesssss! The chocolate is mine, all mine!! Bwahahaha!


His Highness, Prince Sluggo is blissfully unaware that tonight is a cat's night to howl. He's much more interested in napping in the late afternoon sun in H's life sucking chair.



I've been experimenting with the various settings on my camera and came across a setting for photographing food. Well, isn't this right up my alley? Photography and food? The fun has just begun!

The fruit bowl.....

Today's baking efforts. H found a great recipe for Muffaletta so I baked these rolls for tomorrow's gustatorial delights.

One of the Veteran's Club members passed away last week and there will be a memorial service for him tomorrow, so I baked one of my Chocolate Squash Cakes for the service. The aroma throughout the house was indescribable this afternoon and it was all I could do not to cut in to Harry's Cake!

I've been fighting a sinus infection all week and unable to get outside to complete some of my photography class assignments, so looking around, I decided the shower curtain in the small bathroom afforded some interest.

Hey, if ya can't get to the beach, look in the bathroom!

Life is Great!

Happy Halloween!

Hugs, Giddy
