The Black Cat
Walking down the street one night I came across a black cat crossing the street. You know that old saying about black cats 'don't let them cross your path' or something like that, so I tried to walk faster so that wouldn't happen, but to no avail that cat would not seem to let me get ahead of him or her on this midnight walk. What could this 'cat' want or need from me? I wondered about this and thought maybe this cat just wants the company and then all of the sudden in a flash it ran at me.

It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown
It's that time again for one of my favorite Halloween specials "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown". The one where the gang goes out trick-or-treating in their Halloween costumes from witches to ghosts and comparing what each of them got. I always felt sorry for Charlie get rocks every year. How did the 'adults' know which one was Charlie. Linus and Sally are in the pumpkin patch waiting for this entity and for what. The gang minus Linus and Sally head to an old house for a party and Snoopy after a trek across years shows up ready to party.

The Halloween Table 4
Starting to think better to get more place settings on the table. Didn't think anyone would come but maybe one. The doorbell bonged once again, and I went to check. Yes, it is Francine and Monty. One I was expecting, but not with a guest but the more the merrier scarier. Come on into this unexpected party of five, I believe. We gathered in the dining room, and we set the table for four more. The buffet offered several favorites that all enjoyed and with that we sat and ate and shared a Halloween meal of friends and ghouls galore.
