While at the Montclair Film Festival I saw Dionne Warwick: Don't Make Me Over. Then I saw director Dave Wooley and Dionne Warwick interviewed by Stephen Colbert. Rated: Not scary, in fact an excellent, uplifting movie. Plus in the live interview the diva charmingly commanded the stage.
I finished a pair of Simple Skype Socks, the same in the previous post. They were done in August, went on a hike, and are getting blogged now. Rated: Somewhat scary, but at least it's DONE.
For Halloween dinner we're having turkey feetloaf. Feetloaf looks nasty raw, as below, and even nastier cooked and glazed but it tastes just fine. Carving it does pose a challenge, at least for certain sensibilities: cut longitudinally the slices somewhat resemble male genitalia. Rated: Scary!
Feetloaf reminds me: I have been to museums and seen exquisite Khmer-era statues, perfect in every detail, except they lacked feet. That's pretty much certain proof they were looted, given the broken feet and pedestals remain in Cambodia and can be matched with precision. Decades of war and political turmoil enabled wholesale plunder, yet efforts at return also progress. Rated: Hopeful.
Howabout more jack-o-lanterns? (This is not my house.) Rated: Festive, not scary.
Happy Halloween!
