Brain dead... heh heh

I haven't even picked up my knitting in the last two days - I was hoping to be finished with the back of Starsky now... but I did....

take LOTS of pictures at Monday Night Dinner while all the kids carved their pumpkins...

I made a Jell-O brain

and some Ogre Finger cookies

and threw a Halloween party for Lil and her boyfriend and friends

and dropped Kaity off at her friend's Halloween party

and helped The Bud hand out candy (we get about 200+ trick-or-treaters every year!).

Tonight I'm gonna sit and rest... and knit.

Well, first I have to do something about that half eaten brain in my kitchen sink.

Mary - I borrowed the brain mold from my sister, and she's had it for years.... so I'm not sure where you can find one - sorry!

A jello brain! You are such a good mother!

I thought of you last night as I was taking the my boys trick-or-treating... It was perfect Starsky weather yet mine is still sitting here with all its unwoven ends. Time to weave!

Love the fingers - I could do without the brain and if you asked my husband - I do frequently!! What did you use for fingernails?

PS - I wish I had a KAITY to help with bloggy stuff!!

I'd have to use the brain as decoration only ... I can't imagine anyone really wanting to eat it. The fingers however are something I'd like to do for next Halloween. Cute ideas & cute kids in costume.

That's it. Next year I'm going to YOUR house trick or treating. Looks like you had a great time! The Jello brain is awesome!

Wow! your Halloween treats give me the shivers, I don't know if I would be brave enough to eat them!!

WOW!!! I want to come to your house for halloween!! We had 4 trick or treaters.

Those treats are great....I think I need one of those brain molds :)

Wow...that's a LOT of trick or treaters! When I was a kid, we used to get upwards of 150, but now we only get around 20 (I think it was 22 this year)...

Ok...that brain looks gross!! LOL! Hope it tasted good...
