| Minimalist Halloween |
Don't ask! I don't plan these things you know. No pumpkin in our veg box this morning and Mr GP had nicked the squash to go with last weekend's chicken.

For other All Hallows musings, who better to sum up the season than that poor, beleagured Archdruid Eileen and Antonia. Enjoy.
Dear me, my 'Christian' stance on Halloween really has mellowed over the years.

Love it! Am intrigued by the wind-up torch inside an orange: doesn't it get all sticky? But very creative. Lovely to see your Epiphany house blessing - we do that too. Ta for the plug! Have a peaceful night and a joyful All Hallows'.
ReplyDeleteAh, well: creativity can be a messy business, you know! Thanks - you too.
