This is a cross post with RA for All: Horror
We are in the home stretch now. It is time for the Monday Discussion one last Halloween themed time.
Today's question is easy, how are you going to celebrate on 10/31/14?
Me first.
I have a lot planned this year. Friends from out of town are bringing their 2 yr old to watch my 4th grader (who will be going as a zombie doctor) in his school parade. I love watching the 600+ kids trot by one after another.
Then after school, his friends are coming over for some gross grub and trick or treating with 2 dads supervising. I usually make a very chunky and red chili for Halloween. It looks gross but tastes yummy. However, with 4 little boys over who may be picky eaters I am switching to a giant pot of macaroni and cheese with cut up hot dogs and broccoli chunks. Still looks gross, but will be better suited to a 9 and 10 yr old palate.
My 7th grader (going as a mime) will be out with friends trick or treating. I am glad she still is getting dressed up and participating. It helps that the Jr High threw a Halloween costume party this past weekend.
I will be answering the door in a scary mask with a witch hat thrown on for good measure, while drinking a zombie dust beer and toasting that I have made it through yet another crazy October.
Here at the BPL, we will also have trick or treating at all of the service desks available all day on the 31st. Feel free to dress up and show off your costumes here at the library.
What about you. Are you dressing up? What as? Do you have special plans since it is on a Friday this year? Share them here.

For years I'd always wanted to be the Grim Reaper for Halloween and this year I've made it a reality! I created a Venetian style skull half mask out of authentic painted paper maché with the lower half of my face done in makeup! Then I finished it with a black hood, of course. I already debuted it at two pre-Halloween costume parties this past weekend where it was the coolest outfit there! I'm wearing it to a huge mega bash the night of. I can't wait!
