Well it was a classic Halloween in the sense that we bought candy and only had a few trick or treaters...sigh, we must eat it ourselves. Even with our welcoming glowing pumpkins we didn't get the crowds. Friday night I went to my students' party which they really loved. None of them had ever been to a costume party as it is decidedly an American tradition. Some really got into it and they loved my Queen of the Fairies costume. Saturday I watched an interesting documentary and started and finished Tim Gunn's book. A fun, quick read. Who can't love Tim Gunn after a Project Runway marathon or two. I'm impressed with how he can incorporate the philosophical ponderings of many critical theorists into his analysis of "Quality, Taste, & Style"...Kierkegaard AND Roland Barthes!?
I did get to make some chocolate chip banana bread and muffins and that's accomplishment enough for the weekend!
