The violet mohawk was the highlight of an otherwise disappoin
ting Halloween. I wore my "witch with a day job" outfit to work on Friday and did not receive a single comment until 5 p.m. (I'm surprised that all-black garb, purple lips, black fingernails and a giant mass of hair isn't worthy of comment, but I'd rather believe that than just that nobody noticed). The grocery store was out of pumpkins so I didn't carve a jack-o-lantern, and I do so love carving jack-o-lanterns. We received a total of 11 trick-or-treaters. Dianthus puked this afternoon long before he was offered any candy. I was entirely out of good ideas for a costume for Dianthus when I remembered the purple hair spray (yes, it is an item I keep on hand). Dianthus's shirt reads, "Yo Ho Ho and a Bottle of Milk."

Looks like D is having fun. And just why did he puke in the afternoon? Excited about trick-or-treating?
ReplyDeleteFantastic!! Love the look. Better than all those other cutesy animal costumes I've seen on the under-2s.
ReplyDeleteThanks Marieke (although you might want to click on the link and look at last year's costume before mocking the cutesy animals too much).
ReplyDeleteI love the shirt and the costume. I'm disappointed that you didn't get comments about being a witch
