Now for something orange flavored...

You know, for the whole month of October, no matter how busy and real life gets, I can't stop thinking "THIS IS HALLOWEEN MONTH THIS IS HALLOWEEN MONTH THIS IS HALLOWEEN MONTH THIS IS HALLOWEEN MONTH, ETC ETC".

My Halloween party will probably just be about me, kicking back and watching Nightmare Before Christmas and Beetlejuice with some folks, but what the heck. It's fun to celebrate the creepy side of life. Me love the creepy side of life. It's my favorite side of life.

I completely flabbergasted (Woo! important word of the day) Link yesterday when I told him I had never eaten pumpkin pie in my life. Never. He was pretty amazed and asked me about 10 times if this was true (really, really true?). And then he bought a damn pie. So i'm guessing i'll be loosing my pumpkin-pie-virginity (is that a thing? It should be.) in the next few days (hot). I also took out my super warm PJs. Because it is time for fuzzy pajamas. Look out to the balcony while the leaves fall and my body is hidden under layers of superfuzz. 

That's the good life.

Oh, hey, Namesake art! Someone asked me to do a Warrick commission, so here it is. This isn't a "real" event, but I though it was cute, and warm, and I love drawing that have this type of mood. It's so comfortable-looking.

I LOVE pumpkin pie. Homemade is the best! It ranks right up there next to apple pie for me. Mmmm, pie.

I am swooningly in love with that kind of mood - warm, glowy lighting. Just lovely!

Makes you want to hide in a pile of blankets.

*gasp* You have NEVER had pumpkin pie?!?! This must be rectified!! Ahhh, I remember losing my pumpkin pie virginity... *siiiiigh*

I plan to watch 'It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown' for my Halloween tradition. :DD


*squeeeeeee* I ADORE that pic of Warrick and Emma!!! So so much. And I love his lil vest under his badass long coat. He wears it well...

Oh, that would be a good movie to watch too.

I love the feathercloak myself. I just want to play with it.

Yup! It's a classic!!!

I think the feathers are a nice touch...

In a way I envy you. I don't remember losing my pumpkin pie virginity…
that… that came out all sorts of wrong.

[identity profile] secondlina.livejournal.com 2011-10-15 01:55 am (UTC)(link)
Indeed. Hilariously wrong.

Oo!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE pumpkin... anything. :) Last year I even did pumpkin lasagna, which was very very tasty. Pretty neat presentation, too; you cook it inside the pumpkin.

Hee, if you were here I'd have to make pumpkin crunch for you, too. ;)


And yay for art! So cuddly. :D

I love how everyone always offers to make me food. One day, i'll collectively take you all on that.

Mmmm, pumpkin pie is the best! Be sure to have it with a cold glass of milk and some whipped cream on top!

Great drawing, of course. Very tender and I love their faces.

Vanilla ice cream and whipped cream is kindoff a must for pie.

When it comes to pumpkin pie, homemade all the way! The flavor is so much better. I personally find it a bit too bland and smooth (I prefer pecan pie during the holidays), but there are other delicious pumpkin treats out there. If you ever want a great pumpkin bread recipe, let me know! ;)

[identity profile] moonphased.livejournal.com 2011-10-14 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
What's even better? Pecan AND pumpkin pie!! ^____^

I may have to bug you for that great pumpkin bread recipe, BTW. ;)

You do speak truth! Man, I can't wait until Thanksgiving! I'm going to be needing a serious dose of pie!

I tried out this recipe from the Joy of Cooking, and I love it! The spices, raisins, nuts, they all make for a rich but delicious loaf of bread. (Or muffins!) I never tried it with canned pumpkin though, a couple of years ago I learned how to make pumpkin mush from actual pie pumpkins. All I can say is, heavenly! ;)

Ditto. :D

OMG! Never had pumpkin pie?!? It's my all time fave desert! =D I hope you liked it! :) And YAY! my commission! I love the adoring look they share *le sigh* and the color mix of the background is just gorgeous! It really gives that warm closeness the pic portrays! :) Also, Halloween rocks! (It's Jason and my anniversary! It'll be one year here next week! Crazy how fast that went eh? =D
