Wish I were in Chicago for Halloween!
Because I wish I could see my friend Bryan in the Lincoln Lodge Halloween comedy show tonight. Especially after watching his heartbreaking portrayal of Frankenstein in this video :
Go see it tonight at 9 if you’re in Chi-town! I’ll be at home in Utah, eating chili in pumpkin-shaped bread bowls with friends and passing out candy to little costumed beggars. I dug up some purple and orange strings of lights that I might hang on the tree next to our front door, and I’m putting out several glass candle holders with tea lights to illuminate the porch. We have a couple pumpkins out there already, but they aren’t carved yet and I doubt they will be tonight.
My friend’s 13-year-old daughter plans to hold a scythe while wearing all black, including a black faceless mask, and stand very still in our yard before scaring the bejesus out of as many people as possible.
It’s been relatively warm today, reaching almost 70 degrees, so I think hanging out on the porch will be a good possibility. If we get cold, I’ll have some mulled cider on the stove to warm us up… and adults can get extra warm with a splash of rum in their mug. Rummmmmmmm…
