maybe showers remind me of psycho too much



Happy Halloween everyone! This is one of my favorite holidays.

Carve up a few pumpkins...




Make some festive cupcakes...




And scare all your little trick-or-treaters.

Have a spooky night!

hush my darling, don't fear my darling

Just a peaceful evening with the engineer and some adorable kittens.




Mina loves the fireplace. Sike loves wreaking havoc.




And I love everything.

Have a beautiful night.

tickles in my tummy/ he's so yummy yummy

My engineer is here to visit for a few days! The weather has been gorgeous, crisp and cool. So we went apple picking.




We found a place that had Empires, which made my day. The apple of my childhood in New York, an Empire is everything an apple should be. Sweet, tart, crisp, never mealy. Slightly out-of-focus. :)




Anyway, upon this amazing find, I went a little overboard.




If you ever get the chance to taste an Empire, they are delicious out of hand. (Not pictured, tears of joy. Really.)




Or as a snack with peanut butter.





Try one, would you? It'll change the way you see apples forever.

Happy hunting!
