This is Halloween

This Halloween was quieter than last year, and after a busy fall I was very thankful for a weekend in! I keep saying that I want to take it easy on the weekends- spending less time working on blog design and spending time with friends, Jesse, and relaxing instead. So this weekend I tried it out… and I discovered my new favourite guilty pleasure, Intervention. Then suddenly I’d knit two giant cowls and the weekend was gone! Funny how that happens, isn’t it?

For most of Halloween I knit and caught up with local blogger friends, and then it was on to my favourite little ritual: vegetarian sloppy joes and scary movies! This weekend Sweeney Todd, the Evil Dead series and The Walking Dead were on rotation (along with lots of candy!).

Here’s a peek inside my weekend…









I’m so proud of my Sweeney Todd pumpkins this year- I think I did really well, especially on Todd.

We had our first snow fall over the weekend, and while it hasn’t stayed on the ground the first of November is a sure sign that the winter will be setting in soon so I’ve planned a week with some cozy blog posts to warm up any chilly readers out there. I can’t wait to share them!

Did you treat yourself this Halloween?
