Did you have a nice holiday?
We did.
We carved jack o’lanterns. Mine’s on the left:
I decorated my office:
I got dressed up (and, no, you’re right; I’ve used this idea before):
It requires a coat hanger and an entire can of orange hair spray (and the ability to remain calm when half-asleep and unable to remember how to braid after doing it regularly for 33 years):
But it all adds up to a lot of fun!
Did you do anything for Halloween?
There’s no rule that says you can’t be Pippi more than once. I think it’s a great costume! And I like the goofy grin on your jack-o’-lantern.

Rudi and I have wholly different approaches to carving pumpkins. He draws what he wants and I just start cutting and improvising, but we both end up happy and that’s what counts.
