The Freaks Come out at Night....(and Daytime too, apparently)

(Click any photo to make larger)
My friend High Mae has earned herself a new nickname. Martha. As in Stewart.
Such shoes to fill, yet High Mae came in with her high heeled witches boot and stomped her nemisis with a party that would make even Martha scramble for an invitation.
Yesterday, prior to the yesterday's trick or treating High Mae hosted quite the Halloween soiree.
There were scavenger hunts, where the children hunted for "bones".














There was pumpkin carving stations.



















There was pumpkin paining stations.














There was stations where guest topped their own cupcakes...














with the likes of "skeleton mush, brain spread, and feetjam (icing)...

















....  as well as spider/slug goop-n-poop (icing) . Scary!
















There was delicious food.















And drinks.


Enough to make even the older goblins happy.



There were games like eyeball races...



















And timed mummy wraps.



















As well as "guess the guts" (man, that's nuts. In the bowls I saw cooked chicken , spaghetti and dirt jalepenos and unidentifiable goop).















Oh! And even caramel "poisoned" apples, treats from the "evil wicked witch"



















And as the sun went down, the freaks went out. The freaks came out at night.

















A good time was had by all!
Thank you, "High Maintance", for a delightfully and frightfully good time! WE throughly enjoyed ourseves, as did the rest of the gouls. We'll be back next year!

Some people just have a flair for creating fabulous get togethers. Of course for me all that was needed was the Vampire wine and not because I am a vampire.
