I'm back! I managed to beat down whatever weird and uncomfortable crud I was fighting off last week, and I even got better in time to go to a fun Halloween party on Saturday. I made peanut butter ball-eyeballs, which were super fun, and also a big hit, there were none left over!
Important lessons from the night:
1. If an old guy is willing to dress as a whoopie cushion... don't expect anything intelligent... or intelligible.
2. Some people are fun drunks, some people are angry drunks, and some people decide to strip to their boxers and jump into the pool when it's 40 degrees outside when they're drunk.
3. Four year-olds dressed as skunks like to get underfoot, watch your step.
4. Taking a shot of tequila without a lime or lemon to suck on is nearly unbearable. Strawberries really aren't a good replacement.
5. Bottle openers on harness boots: look like a good idea, until your husband sprays a Spaten Optimator all over himself... Flexibility appears to be the key.
6. A leather bodice might be fun... but after four hours, the girls, the back, and the tummy could use a break!
