I’m just not that into Halloween. Candy, costumes, and everything pumpkin flavored? Yes. Things that are scary or disgusting? Nope.
So when I realized that Phillip had class that evening and the DVD I had on hold from the library was available, I decided a night in sounded pretty good.
(In case you’re wondering, DVD = Season 1 of Girls. Because I can’t handle another intriguing public radio interview with Lena Dunham without actually watching the show. You win, Terry Gross.)
As I write this part on Friday morning, this is the plan for the evening:
- Pizza and wine
- Binge watch Girls
- Bake stupid easy pumpkin cookies
And how did that work out?
Really well, actually.

Microblog Mondays: we’re bringing blogging back.
Sounds like a fun evening!
Perfect evening. (And I’m going to have to get the DVD of Girls too, for the same reason!)
Seriously! We need a name for this phenomenon of buying/watching/reading things because of NPR interviews. How about the Fresh Air Effect? Fresh Air-fluence? Public Radio Persuasion? Gross Consumerism?
Sounds like a nice evening. So did you have the lights out, or were people ringing your doorbell and interrupting all night?
I had the lights out, but I really didn’t even hear a lot of noise outside. Our neighborhood is really hit or miss. Either there are a million trick-or-treaters or there are 2.
Sounds like a wonderful evening. :)
It was really nice. :)
Sounds like a great evening. Although, I wish I could have had a Halloween. I just lived vicariously through my friends on FB.
The way I celebrated would work anywhere and any day, really. You could throw a Halloween party at your house. I bet your friends in Finland would love to dress in costumes and eat candy!
Awesome. :) Maybe next year I can turn the lights out and pretend I’m not home?
I highly recommend it. :)
