squeamish guys. *lol*; was: QOTW: Halloween

[Guest guest]

Susie, that pumpkin carving party sounds like a blast!

i bet your son will really have a great time. i had to

chuckle over how your family " will not be amused " . *lol*

My son is just like that! If i even mention something

gross he will push his plate away and refuse to eat another

bite! Do you think that stops me??? hahaha

Bad, bad me.

Happy Halloween! *cackle, cackle*

P.S. Oh, and i love the day of the dead idea. i have

read and seen shows on TV about that. Too cool. If you

find a link to those skull molds, let me know. Thanks.

 

It is lamentable, that to be a good patriot one must

become the enemy of the rest of mankind.

~ Voltaire, philosopher (1694-1778)
