Watch Your Cookies

Saturday is Halloween. Despite the giant spiders and scary pumpkins I leave on the porch to scare them away, children still come looking for cookies and candy. They think their little plastic masks and bedsheets will protect them. Heh heh.

Lisa, vampires are make believe, like elves, gremlins and eskimos.
Quotation from Homer Simpson

ENVELOPE, n. The coffin of a document; the scabbard of a bill; the husk of a remittance; the bed-gown of a love-letter.
Quotation from Ambrose Bierce

Is that a Vampire Bite?

Is that a Vampire Bite?

Consider donating blood to your local blood bank. It’s life giving. Afterwards, they give you cookies.

She loves blood-red poppies for a garden to walk in.
In a loose white gown she walks
and a new child tugs at cords in her body.
Her head to the west at evening when the dew is creeping,
A shudder of gladness runs in her bones and torsal fiber:
She loves blood-red poppies for a garden to walk in.
Poem by Carl Sandburg, Poppies

Vampire. It doesn’t mean forever.

Vampire. It doesn’t mean forever.

Do you feel like trying something dangerous “until it scares me?” Whether it’s roller coasters, mountain climbing or walking alone at night, we believe we can debark, return from the path we have taken and turn the key to our homes, safe and magically invulnerable. We think “It won’t happen to me.”

It is no more common for vampires to be psychopaths or killers than it is for any random person on the street. However, a prolonged, or very involved, relationship with a vampire can put a severe strain on the emotional and psychic energy systems of an ordinary person.
Quotation from Inanna Arthen, Real Vampires (EarthSpirit.com)

The Kissing Booth

The Kissing Booth

Garlic promotes the growth of bacteria in the mouth. The best way to get rid of garlic breath is to floss and brush. Eating a dill pickle also helps. But if you eat enough garlic, the smell of it “seeps” through your skin. That’s ok, garlic is a natural mosquito repellant. And you’ll never be bothered by vampires.
