SPOOKY

Yes...the newsletter barely made it again. Maybe I should just consider doing a reflection of the month rather featuring the following month. But, I refuse to skip a month. Not giving up just yet.

Anyway, stay with me readers. I shall make a come back!!! I hope....lol.

CREATIVE: PLASTIC EGGS

I wonder if these are being sold already in black and orange. My idea here is to have black and orange plastic egg capsules to be filled with candy. The candy inside would be an eyeball candy. Get it...eyeball = yolk. Anyway, thought it would be cool. And, of course the eyeball candy would already be in a candy wrapper. The other candies can be gumballs, plastic spiders, bug candy... LOL, I know you're craving some bug candy...delicious.

STORY: COSTUMES

Ashley, James, and Peter are getting ready for Halloween.

PETER: Mom, I don't want to wear this costume.

ASHLEY: I made what you asked for. So, you can't complain.

PETER: Mom...I asked to be "The Rock" and not the "Rock." I'm all gray...and wearing long green gloves with flowers at the end...Why do I have the green gloves anyway?

JAMES: WHY-AM-I-A-TREE?

ASHLEY: You asked to be a stud, and I interpreted it. I didn't want you to be a two-by-four. So, I thought a tree might be more appropriate.

JAMES: And, why does our costumes look so dry, and you're looking so hot. Who you are anyway?

ASHLEY: I'm Gaia, the pretty one (flings her hair). You see...one touch from me things bloom (touches his son). Peter extend your arms out to show those pretty flowers. And, my dear tree, press this button, and you'll light up like a Christmas tree. Of course, this can be opened to interpretation...the glowing red balls are just blooming fruits. I combined all three costume ideas into one theme. Don't you guys just love it?

JAMES & PETER: Interpret this, NO!!

REVIEW: RESTAURANTS

Four Season Cafe :D
(Artesia, CA)

• Filet Mignon
  The Filet Mignon here is one of the best Filet Mignons I had at Chinese Cafes. The meat was very tender, and it was a good deal for the price.

Buca di Beppo :)
(Claremont, CA)

• Apple Gorgonzola Salad
  The salad had fresh ingredients, but the salad dressing wasn't as great. The dressing needed a bit more punch...a little bit more salt? The combination of flavors was good. The cranberries used wasn't too sour.

Catal :)
(Anaheim, CA)

• Caesar Salad
  This salad is a bit different from a normal Caesar Salad because of its dressing. Instead of a liquid dressing, it is based on more finely chopped ingredients. It's really good, but I should have ate half of it. It started to taste a bit on the salty side.

RATING

TIME SAVER: HYDROGEN PEROXIDE

To remove the toothpaste residue from my toothbrush handle, I use hydrogen peroxide. Instead of taking the time to clean the brush handle, I get a jar and soak my electrical toothbrush handle with hydrogen peroxide. After a couple of minutes, the handle looks clean again and no scrubbing.
