The washing machine.
They get double candy because people love it so much. Directions to make it here.
A lovely reader emailed me wanting couples costume ideas. Here are a few I found around the internet….what are your favorite costume ideas you’ve seen?

Several years ago two little girls rang my doorbell on Halloween with some black make-up on their eyes. I can't remember what the rest of their costume looked like, but I couldn't figure out what they were supposed to be, so I asked them. They answered in unison, "we're black-eyed peas!" I thought it was a cute idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat ideas, thank you for sharing. We have the thing one, two, three and four shirts for our children. We always get lots of laughs. I thought a box of crayons would be good for a large family.
ReplyDeleteI love the washing machine costume! That's one of the best I've ever seen.
ReplyDeleteOne of my favorite Halloween memories was when my two oldest boys (now 19 and 17) were 4 and 2. They dressed as soldiers, complete with fatigues, camouflage helmets, and kit bags. We have a photo of them with the 4-year-old saluting smartly and the 2-year-old looking at his brother and trying to salute--but not quite making it. That little 2-year-old is now 6'9", so memories of him as that tiny boy really are sweet!
I love the washing machine! Also I am probably ust having a really blonde moment but what are the white tuba things with R and L on them? I honestly cant figure it out!!!

ReplyDeleteI made my husband and I rubix (sp?) cubes a few years back for halloween...you just need two square boxes, some paint and black electrical tape.
