Happy Halloween everyone! Trick or Treat is over and I got 0 knocks on the door from trick or treaters which does not surprise me one bit although it is rather disappointing. I did decorate the porch last night after my company left to be ready for this day.
(Knock at the door)...
Well, it wasn't a trick or treater ~ my friend Cynthia came down bearing gifts ~ a new big mug for tea! Now I am up to 2 as I lost our two favorites in one shot when they both dove into the sink simultaneously a couple of months back.
After hanging out with Cindy for a bit and sending her away with candy so it was almost like I had a trick or treater ~ my phone rings and it is Cindy ~ laughing because I gave her a partial dozen of eggs to bring home for her baking ~ and it's trick or treat night or mischievous night so she was laughing because the eggs were not in a bag and she was worried that she would get arrested on suspicion before she got home.
I began laughing as well ~ cuz there were only 8 eggs left in the dozen. I reassured her that she was probably pretty safe ~ she only lives a block away and she is an older lady and not a teenager. It is a good memory for Halloween.
Today has been very productive, orderly and fun. Overall is was an excellent day. I had a taste testing of the Crab Rangoon's for the birthday party so I began my day making fresh Won Ton Wrappers. A friend was over as I was making them and filling them.
The first two were a disaster as I could not remember how to fold them. I had to look it up ~ which is the one thing good about technology ~ do a Google search and you are there. I was already for one with the oil heating and tea on hand.
So now I know what I am making for the party. We went shopping and picked up the supplies I will need minus a couple which will need to be fresh and I have my timeline. Always like to have it straight in my head. It is indeed a fun project I am involved in and I cannot wait to see how it all falls together. My friend is so organized an together and has a great team for success!
My son came home this afternoon as well so I have him to torture. Just kidding on the torture. I am glad he is home. It was nice to have dinner with him and listen to him talking to his teammates on his game as they are involved in the battle.
I have to not swear at the games I play while he is on his microphone. Sometimes it is difficult. I could never wear a mic. I do swear way to much for that. Thomas used to think it was funny in the old days when I walked into his room ranting at him to mic me. Of course I would not realize it until I heard about 10 guys laughing.
My rants were famous worldwide. OMG! I could have killed him! It was kind of funny though and I would laugh along with them ~ the rant long forgotten. Ah ~ the sacrifices we make for our children! They have driven me crazy over the years but I love my boys and I kinda think they feel the same way about me (most of the time!).
I am off to fight my dragons and feed my dogs. (Game references). Hope you all had a safe and fun Halloween! May you all get more treats and less tricks (unless you like tricks better.) See you in November!
