We went to a costume party once where we had to dress up as song titles.
A very simple one: Wear a big pocke****ch around your neck and carry
and empty open purse or wallet. "If You've Got The Money, Honey, I've
Got The Time." Rob wore a red sweatshirt and went as "The Red, Red
Robin. Goes Bob Bob Bobbing Along". I wore a hooded robe like a monk
and walked around saying only "evening" in various chant tones. "Some
Monk Chanted Evening." "-) (OK, "Some Enchanted Evening" - Rossano
Brassi, eh?)

When Beck was 7-1/2 months pregnant, she wore a black sports bra and
black tights -- and painted her enormous belly orange -- like a
jack-o-lantern. I think her bellybutton was the nose. :-) It was a
small party with only very good friends in attendance. The picture is
hysterical! (Have you looked at the pic of Sam as pumpkin on my
webpage, Ginny? Do.)

A fellow mom dressed up as an egg with horns, tail, and pitchfork two
years ago, is that what you mean? I absolutely loved that costume...

Well as a real practicing "Witch" and member of an active Coven I plan
to dress up as an angel. And I am taking the wonderful receipt for
Angel Food Cake that I done for years. It is filled with chocolate so
that when it is cut in runs out in a river of yummy stuff. The top is
frosted with cream cheese, powdered sugar and pecans with coconut shreds
toasted.
I also make a devils food cake with all the appropriate stuff in it,
just what would have been expected. Now this is for a work thingy.
You would love what we really have to eat at our Samhain festival.
Hope this doesn't get to the wrong newsgroup again!

How would you know. Stupid people who go to Grinnell and live in that
state of mindlessness would never have a clue.

Yes indeed, Samhain is a truly religious holiday. here in Salem the
parties start at the beginning of October but really get into high gear
when all those outsiders travel here for their "Halloween" fun.
The true New Year occurs at the winter solstice and then on into the
rest of the year.
We have wonderful times and great food.

Those are the religious symbols. I just find it odd that people
get in a snit about Christmas lights at work, but are okay with dressing
up and having Halloween decorations up.

Yes, I know, but most folks either don't think of that or don't even
know that.

As a practicing Wiccan I observe Samhain/Halloween as a most sacred
holiday of the year. We have a marvelous time that is both serious and
festive. At our home we have all kinds of decor dealing with the holiday
One year I gave out pamphlets on The Wiccan Religion and there were over
300 takers along with the appropriate candy.
It is a great time to educate those who want to know more.

I have a highschool friend who became a practicing Wiccan years ago. I
have learned much from him.
