Halloween Treats and Sides

First of all - Happy Halloween to you all. I know you are all going to make the best of it, even if there is no MCack horror movie production this year. I really apologize for that, but you can understand the circumstances. Curse Northwestern if you need to - but homework forbids my making of horror. Sad.

But there is lots to celebrate. Caitlin and I partied it up with her boss who, as you know, LOVES HALLOWEEN. Her party was off the hook.

This is just one table of like 3 of amazing, catered treats. I took video of most of this, but she had deviled egg eyeballs, cocoa puff brains, peanut butter chocolate mice, guts....etc etc etc. All of it was delicious. You can see some of the goodness here. OH - she also had mummies in a blanket! COCKTAIL WEENIES! I love them. We brought DWo and LWo with us. As you can see, they dressed up like a shower and a woman getting ready to shower (as seen in the original Karate Kid).It was a great costume for being anti-social when you wanted to be. When you are ready to be social again, just open up. As a gag, many of us dressed up as Caitlin's boss, Shay. We were all different parts of her life. Above is "Work Shay."Caitlin was "Scary Halloween Shay," I was "Fitness Crazy Shay," and then there was also "Dog Rescue Shay" and "Pyro Shay." Shay is all of these things, and more.Carl, Shay's husband, was "Country Farmin' Shay." You can see Shay herself pictured here as the second person in from the right. Caitlin's costume involved awesome leggings with Halloween stickers on them.
Other people chose to not go the Shay route, as seen above.For example, these guys dressed up as a sting ray and The Crocodile Hunter. Classy!To add to the scariness of the night, we went around the "haunted forest path" that they had set up to scare kids at the party. Caitlin and I went out and scared people for a while. After about 5 hours of non-stop Halloween partying, we were ready to head back to Evanston. But not before the Wo's flashed one more camera-ready smile.

I hope everyone is doing something amazing for Halloween this year. High fives to all of you that have been to a corn maze, a haunted house, a horror movie (or 10?), a costume party, or an abandoned hospital. Beyond our partying, I also watched An American Werewolf In London, Friday the 13th Part 6, Mother of Tears, and Bram Stoker's Dracula. I hope to watch a few more, even though they will be out of season.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!
