Well, kiddo, I thought you outgrew superstition.

Today’s Halloween and for all my American readers, here’s my bitchin’, rockin’, fantabulous costume:

 

 

What do you mean, you don’t understand? I’m going as The Bride from Kill Bill! What? You still don’t get it? C’mon! It’s totally obvious: it’s the end of Vol. 2, where the Bride goes to confront Bill, finds her daughter, tucks her in and then takes off her necklace (!) and drapes it over a picture frame, in case Bill does kill her and she doesn’t come back. It’s that necklace! Well, a replica anyway. I’ve taken to making my own beady jewellry and this is necklace number two. Actually, this necklace is what inspired me to go do that in the first place. I just loved how frail, simple and yet beautiful it was. So there you have it, I’m going as the Bride. And by going, I mean I’m having dinner at home with a movie tonight. And by as the Bride, I mean my neck is. I’m also having a few Reese’s Pieces tonight (what is the American obsession with mixing peanut butter and chocolate? It’s like 90% of your candy is composed of these two, way too stuffing ingredients) because I saw them in the toy store and was intrigued. They’re orange, brown and yellow, so they are perfect for Halloween. And they are also the only way I seem to tolerate peanut butter and chocolate, because they are smaller than Smarties, thinner too and I only need two or three to satisfy my sweet cravings. Gotta think of that diet, it’s week 3!

 

Anyway, happy Halloween to all my readers who celebrate it, I hope you have a really good time, especially those with rugrats! I tried my best to be a part of it!

 

Live long and ghoulishly, murrrrrrder,
