October Duel : Hallowe'en

 

 

TRICK OR TREAT ?

 

 " Trick or treat , smell my feet,  OR  give me something   sweet to eat..."

 ~~~Hello Friends!

It is time to duel and I am a day late (it's also almost 2:00 am here so I guess that, technically,

 I am actually TWO days late!!) So sorry darling peeps...but Life is constantly interfering...

Both the Dazzlers and the Divas were given the following instructions for the October's theme, that my partner Judy and I hosted this duelling round :

"...Share your view on Halloween...

Do you celebrate it? If so, what's your favorite part ?

 (eating candy is NOT an optional answer...lol)

Please share one (or more) of the following suggestions :

a trick, a treat, a recipe, fav. costume, fav. decoration, fun times..etc...

                              HAPPY HALLOWE'EN TO YOU ALL!!

 

   

 

The following are the items I included in the kit  above to all of the Dazzlers:

 Stamps (all from SU) : "Haunting Halloween" (cat, cauldron + 2sentiments)

My favorite part of  Halloween is to see all the little one all dressed up and bundled up in their
ohhhh sooooo cute outfits...Some of the costumes are so darn creative nowdays!!
I do take pictures of all the wee kids that come and knock at the door and of those that are
barely able to walk |(waddle...lol) -with their Parents permission of course- and then send those
pictures to my friend Tiziana, overseas, as she always gets a kick to see how the true |Halloween traditions are carried out in North America....
One year I was quite taken back when I answered the door (my lights were no longer on past 8:30 pm) and found myself staring straight into a lady approx. mid thirty!! She was dressed as a gothic bride and went trick or treating!!!!....I couldn't believe either my eyes nor ears.....lol
Then, last year, there was another woman (approx. same age as the first one) that came with two pillowcases with the intention to fill them up for her kids....who stayed home!!!! mmmmmm.....
THAT was quite the 'trick' if U ask me....but hey...I did give her treats as well.....lol...

I often like to decorate my front door and such, for Halloween, and to receive my lil and big guests
all dressed up in costume as well....this year I would kike to go as a piratess....but IF we decide to go as a group ( at work )I voted to go as the Duck Dynasty fellows!...lol....
THAT would be such a HOOT!! lol


Have a SAFE and FUN Halloween YA ALL!!!! ♥
