The pumpkin entries are fabulous. "Save the Pumpkins!!!" sent in by Meredith Carlson is one of the many creative entries.
On Halloween I will announce the winners of Blu's pumpkin contest. The Anti-Pumpkin entries are due on Halloween at midnight. Wait until you see these entries.
If you dressed up for Halloween send me your 160 wide by 150 high photographs! You could be featured in our Daily Life section.
Kailee's Daily Five
1. Rent "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown" Since it's airing 40 years ago this classic remains a timeless classic
2. Halloween cocktail : 1/3 oz of Kahlua and 1/3 Bailey's Irish Cream and 1/3 oz Goldschlager. Fill shaker with ice and add ingredients, stir and strain into shot glass. If you have to drive grab a Starbuck's Pumpkin Spice Latte.
3. Why play tricks when you can have the best candy this Halloween. Look for houses that offer the top Halloween candy of 2007: bubble gum or Skittles or Snickers or M&Ms or Twix or Kit Kat or Lifesavers or Gummi Bears or Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Yummy.
4. Dance your troubles away, yes Brittany's new CD Blackout has plenty of hot music.
5. Who knew that a mouse could be so sexy? Once I discovered this costume I knew it was destined to end up in my wardrobe this Halloween.
