First big social event at MurkNorth; the quiet room downstairs was just as needed as I thought it would be, and we also had to have a separate one upstairs (which was okay); hanging ghosts is hard; death's head cakes; pointy heads are bad; children become dinosaurs; two pounds beef in sloppy joes but not enough tapir chow; pumpkin guts everywhere; bad improvisational matches; oh noes black frosting on Kero-chan!; ink somehow confined to paper; far too much snacky food eaten by yours truly. One tentative RSVP didn't make it, one non-RSVPer found time, and that was good. ^_^

18 present: Me (solarbird), annathepiper, spazzkat, mamishka, drglam (visiting from MA), dustbath, Joby, Abby, Isabel, Perrin, wrog, emmacrew, Philip, poodlgrl, Eric, Violet, kathrynt, llachglin. Pictures of only some follow, because I forgot about the camera and was too busy cooking!

In no particular order...

Do NOT feel bad. She never comes to ANYTHING, ever. She just wants to get invited so she can say no.

But we're only a few blocks from Kenmore Camera! She might have waved or something!

The correct terminology is "Skull Cakes". ;) And you forgot the insanely popular deviled eggs. >;)

Yesterday Violet opened her eyes in the morning and I said "What do you want for breakfast?" She said "Mommy can you make some of those nummy eggs from last night?"

Thank you so much for hostessing. It was a lovely party, your new home is truly beautiful. I know how much work goes into these things, and it's a thankless job! We all had a lot of fun, and I appreciate the invite.
