I am most pleased with my grumpy pumpkin. I'll need to be sure to get a picture of it when it's lit up.
That IS a grumpy pumpkin!

River: The human body can be drained of blood in 8.6 seconds given adequate vacuuming systems. Mal: See, morbid and creepifying, I got no problem with, long as she does it quiet-like.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, HEY. Look at the resounding lack of blackface. I want to kiss her.
As a commenter on the gawker post said "Blackface is the new black." Bless those who find some way around it...

He's got great legs but I have never hated the Imagus extension more (it magnifies every image you hover over into the highest res available). Some things are not meant to be zoomed on.

If you know you are going to freeze soup, use half the water (or omit water if you are using enough other liquids) then dilute when you serve with boiling water. (If you are eating some now, and freezing the rest, you can dilute what are serving now with boiling water too.

We will get no trick or treaters today, but I do have to leave the house, so my quicky costume is all black clothes - shirt and skits, my witch cape that has a great hood, fancy makeup and, thanks to Teppy's encouragement, my tiara.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
tiara.
ALWAYS appropriate.

It is so nasty out, people. I don't even want to go home on the bus, never mind trick or treating in this weather. And Dillo's gorgeous costume is made of cardboard, so it would be mutilated. Bah, I say.

flea, I saw on Channel 9's website that IKEA is doing trick-or-treating from 5 to 8 tonight. No word on whether the treats are Swedish meatballs.

There wasn't enough liquid in this recipe that all of the ingredients would have been covered with half the water.
Someone just came by and handed me an article! The old guy here that everyone loves (and he knows everyone's names and uses them in every conversation with you) has an interest in Jamaica (or he has a topic for everyone in the company, dunno) and came by yesterday and asked if I'd be interested in an article in Caribbean suing Britain for reparations. Instead of sending me the link, he tore the article out and gave it to me physically. Even more adorable, he had to rifle through pockets full of newspaper clippings to find the right one for me.
