Great costume, Brad - all you're missing are the puppies :) How much practice did those heels take.... I hope you enjoyed the party you must have worn it to, or is that tonight? We've always had fun Halloween, DH grew up on a country farm without much trick or treating going on so he has always gotten a big kick out of hoards of little costumed kids coming to the door. We moved last Thanksgiving so I have no idea how many to expect tonight, one neighbor tells me not many, it's a wooded street off 'the main drag'. But I'll have all the lights on, some decorations in the entryway, candy, will see how many feel welcome and stop.

I LOVE that picture! Sometimes, I wonder what happens if the villain wins in stories. Her purse is downright creepy! o_0. Brad AKA Moonwolf

Although blogging is fun and it is neat to share my 'scapes with more people, whenever I read the comments from my "HOLIDAY" friends, I feel such a sense of belonging! It is partly my fault for not being more "involved" with other bloggers but the comments left for me here are just so touching and meaningful. Thank you so much ladies for your compliments and funny commments! Luvs, you are a hoot! You are so right, Ms Witch might just stare you down for your food or play some prank to get it! Glad you like the new format of my blog...it is definitely a learning process for me and I'm happy when I stumble on something better or get advice from Kathleen! Jane, the witch is probably not a good choice for an actual dinner party and nor are the ravens up high as they all break my own rules of obscuring sight lines and they only look good from one side of the table. Course, those viewing from the back wouldn't have the witch's evil eyes on them! lol! Karen, thank you. I am honoured that you check out my blog now and then. Yes, the reno project is overwhelming to me right now...I can't even decide on a paint colour! Gail, I'm always working on how to take better pics. Got DH involved in this one as he used to do the lights for a local band and now has all this equipment in the garage. He bought a stand for me and came up with a plan to use some of the lights on it. Its a problem for me though as it is too big for me to put together...guess he will be involved every time I tablescape! Yachter, I'd love to come do another Thanksgiving table since our Canadian one is over. What time should I show up? Course, I expect a turkey dinner in payment! LOL! Thanks again ladies, you're the best! DD

Thank you, again, everyone! Like I said, Cruella's pretty easy to recognize. How could you not know who that black and white hair, big fur coat, gloves, cigarette holder/cigarettes (the ones I used are fake as I do not smoke at all), and that make up belong to lol. I LOVE Ursula, too! The Little Mermaid is one of my all time favorites. Hmm, makes me think twice about choosing another different costume for next year lol. Thank you all so very much! I have had nothing but positive feedback from doing this costume! Brad AKA Moonwolf

Really nice - wouldn't have expected less from you! My favorite component is the green pepper; love how that naturally came together.

I took inspiration from your buddies over at smokingmeats, last year's October throwdown. Kept it basic, and it was sloppily thrown together due to lack of time. (Worked late while the kids trick-or-treated and wife stressed about getting us packed for a weeklong vacation. At LGA right now.) Ok so it didn't turn out well but it was fun. Definition on the skull was better than the picture shows.

Hope everyone had fun!

Mmmrph! I don't know if I could eat that, FOAS.
I'm going to have to remember this for next year, hilariously gross!

Dcarch, what did you use for maggots? I like the witch's hat, but then I always had an affinity for that character... at Halloween ;)

Great job, everyone!

Halloween itself was kinda uneventful, although, I did watch Beetlejuice and some Halloween-themed movies. Tonight, it's the Halloween party with my theatre family! I will try and post pictures of me in costume!

Dcarch, that is truly disgusting, and wonderfully gross for Halloween. I like the peppers a lot, the maggots less. (grin)

We just had the grandkid's birthday/Halloween party today, so I'll be posting pictures too, soon. Tomorrow Makayla is making her mother's birthday dinner, with me as sous chef, so we'll see if that's scarier than today's dishes!

I didn't realize they were supposed to be maggots. I'm lucky to have never seen anything like that before, I guess. :)

FOAS, your meat man came out great. lol! I wouldn't be touching him! Have you seen the pic floating around that looks like a wrapped mummy w/ openings for the head/brains, stomach "guts", and other meat-parts like ribs, arms, etc.? too much for me! :O)

Here's my Halloween costume! The party last night at the theatre was a lot of fun and people LOVED my costume! I forgot to put on my earrings before I left, but it still turned out great!

It's alive! It's alive!

Dcarch, your presentation is perfectly ghoulish! You must've laughed through the whole process.
I'm not seeing a witch's hat in the second image, as someone mentioned. It reminds me of a tentacle, from 'Alien.' Maybe? Anyway, I love them all.

Alex, I believe the 'maggots' to be wild rice.

Thanks everyone. It's good to have an excuse to play with food.

FOAS, that is a very stomach churning creation, for me. Reminds me the one time I actually had to walk thru the autopsy room of Cornell Hospital to visit a friend.

Brad, that is totally outrageous! You do have true talent in theatrics. Thanks for sharing.

Love all the photos! I thought I had already looked at this thread, but apparently I hadn't, & what I missed. Love the food photos, but dcarch is always fabulously creative with food. I'm just lucky to get it on a plate. Found Brad's photos on another thread, they are great, & I love Morticia & Gomez, Thing is just perfect.
