Kalli hosted our shire’s Halloween party this year. As always with her fetes, food and fun flowed liberally. I enjoyed an added treat– my parents stopped in on a their way from Kentucky to Maine and joined us in the festivities.
We faced an unusual conundrum.  We wanted something simple and quick in the costume department. Garb was a no-brainer, but is everyday attire among this crowd. So we took the next path of least resistance– I dressed as a cowgirl and my love dressed as my horse!
Everything you need can be found at Goodwill, Walmart, or Ebay. Want proof?
A full size, workable ballista is currently at auction. Not just any ballista but a CELEBRITY ballista at that. (Does that make it a celebrista?) Originally made for a joint BBC/ Discovery Channel production, “Building the Impossible,” this baby can be YOURS!
We love this video (and not just cause we love Peter Gabriel!)
Hurry and place your bid now before its going, going, gooooone!

‘Tis clear she knows my current work schedule!

Stumbled across a great Cafe Press site this morning. Check it out: Conal’s Corner. Because “It’s not just something we do on the weekend…” That spaghetti strap tank with the jousting warhorse on it? It will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine!
