Halloween Ideas

Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. And while I have a bit of an artsy/crafty streak, I've never been one of those people who can make a really cool costume. My best work was probably when I was a box of popcorn in Middle School, of course I had to take the box off if I wanted to sit down.

Last year I kind of copped out a bit as was a flapper:

Here are a few of my ideas for this year. (if blogger had a poll feature that I could find/figure out I'd let you vote, instead leave your opinions in the comments)

Easy to do:

Rosie the Riveter

cotton candy: (my idea for this costume is not exactly the same, but along these lines)

Mark has already decided on his costume but before he did we thought about a few couples costumes including my favorite, Kermit and Ms. Piggy (again I'm not sure I'd do it this way exactly, but it's not bad)

And finally, we talked about being a monkey and a banana, inspired by this baby costume:

Rest in Peace

Just in time for Halloween, now you even have to feel guilty about dying, because your burning or rotting body is polluting the air and water. I mean really, can't death be the one time you can finally stop caring about all the suckers you left behind?*


*That said I think the whole expensive casket/headstone/giant spaces of land/embalming thing is kind of crazy, but I also think death is the one time you don't get to tell people what to do.
