The Kitchen Table

My priceless Granddaughter on Halloween

12 years ago

So my beautiful little bumble bee ( 3 yr old granddaughter) was handing out candy here last night.

Two kids about 7 or 8 came to the door and after getting their candy they started walking away. Madisen yells out "hey, you forgot something". They said "what"? and she replies "you forgot to say thank you"!!!

We about died laughing. Priceless!!! Wish I remember how to post a picture....I'm sure you'd agree with me that she is the most adorable bumble bee you've ever seen! ;)

That's a priceless memory. I'd definitely think she's the prettiest bee. I love little kids.

Love seeing the little ones in their costumes!
No trick-or-treat around here until the 31st. There have been some Halloween/Fall Festivals with cars grouped and decorated for Trunk-or-Treat.

You are so funny. If you wouldn't of mentioned the napkin being out of place in the first pics, I wouldn't of noticed. Sounds like it was out of place for a good reason. Be sure and tell DGD we loved another one of her tables. She is on her way to be a Master Tablescaper. My DGD is going to follow in her footsteps if she keeps her interest going and I love it. BTW, I really like the way you faded the edges in the pictures. Punk

Lovely ladies Alisande! How is your granddaughter doing? The costume Bigack posted has her son's head right in the middle and his hands are pulling his own hair/holding his head up.. so yes, he is able to see. I've seen this done with a clear plastic jar (cut in the back) over the head too.. so it appears the 'live' head is in a jar being held by a headless person. Very cool idea! DH and I are going to our friend's annual Halloween party as John and Lorena Bobbitt. I won't post pictures here of that, but it is a simple costume with fake blood in appropriate places on some pajamas. I'll carry a 'bloody' knife and a jar with evidence (sausage). Sorry you asked??? lol

Chisue, our beauty will spend Thanksgiving weekend in NYC with her family to enjoy the Macy's parade, and they're planning a winter ski trip to Utah. Otherwise, she's working two restaurant jobs, and looking for one in her field (graphic design). Thanks for asking! Maire, I don't know exactly what they're planning to do in Salem. One of her girlfriends' birthday is today, and they drove up yesterday with the girl's family. They're all staying a few days. It sounds like fun. Thanks for the ID. I never watch horror movies, and I get all the evil guys mixed up. :-)

Need help with my Granddaughter's Pumpkin --- lol
Q

You're welcome. :-) She looks ecstatic! Don't waste that pumpkin on Halloween though lol. Remove and clean the seeds. Season them with your favorite seasoning blend - even just some salt will do nicely - and lightly roast them. You can find many methods on the web. I like them raw myself. Then, have your granddaughter help you peel and chop that puppy up. Roast it for the savory base of a wonderfully creamy soup, or turn it into pie filling. You could stir fry it, or even chunk it into bite size pieces, add brown sugar, a few autumn spices, and cook it in a roasting pan to make a dessert like baked apples. A little ice cream on the side and yummmm! You could just half it, pour in some brown sugar and maple syrup and bake it like a squash. So many delicious choices!

Absolutely loved it! Years ago in the last neighborhood we lived, I got so angry that not one halloweener that came to the door said Happy Halloween or thank you, I made sure we had plans for halloween (dinner and movies) every year thereafter.
