Dianne's Blog: http://diannehanks.com Halloween Music Playlist, A GIFT for you: http://diannehanks.com/2009/10/27/rec... An optimistic Halloween begins with Decorations. Pumpkins, spiders, skeletons witches ghosts--all good things for Halloween. You could also add werewolves, bats, Frankenstein, and black cats. Be sure to have something that makes people say "EWWW!" Orange and black are staple colors for Halloween. Add people you love. Floating eyeballs make any drink delectable for Halloween. Crank up the scary music, wear a costume, and remember the candy!
Light plenty of candles. Be sure to name your food something clever. Give traditional foods a new "face". Have FUN! Minimum costume is ONE BLACK TOOTH.
Rent a scary movie, have a poetry reading of scary poems --Edgar Allen Poe. Do something different.
