Happy Halloween, everybody! In honor of this festive, sugar-laced holiday, I wanted to share with you a Web site that was passed onto me from my good friend Terry (thanks, Terry...you are a scholar and a gentleman, despite what is written on bathroom walls throughout the region).
Being a huge...

There won’t be anything scary about the night sky over Victoria Halloween.
In fact just the opposite. Barring a cloudy sky, a crescent Moon and Venus will make for a nice starscape just above the western horizon after sunset.
And Venus won’t be...

A pumpkin never comes out the way you expect it to.
Well, mine never do, at least.
On Saturday some friends and I, along with a whole gang of little girls, decided it was time to carve our jack-o-lanterns.
We headed out to the pumpkin patch at about 1 p.m. to pick out our canvases and...

OK, this blog is going out technically on behalf of my mom.
She's working on a Halloween costume for my 13-year-old sister, Sydney, in Laredo. Sydney is one of those girls who isn't satisfied with grabbing a pointy hat and calling herself a witch or chopping up an old sheet for a ghost costume....

This video is so funny I almost soiled myself laughing so hard. The sad part of it is the information although disseminated in a humorous manner is the God's honest truth! As a traditional Conservative Republican I think we could learn a LOT from the Libertarians when it comes to Taxation.

So the second time around worked out well, I think. It was actually a pretty speedy process - I got home from work, fed the dog, etc. and sat down to watch TV for a bit. Apparently I fell asleep for a while, though, because I woke up at about 9 p.m. and realized I still had a pumpkin in serious...

I joined up with a co-worker last week to do a little pumpkin carving. We traveled to the nearest pumpkin patch, picked the ones we felt had the most personality, and sat outside her apartment, knives in hand, to create our masterpieces.
And the afternoon was great - she sat down with a detailed...

Well, I promised a run-down of my family's best Halloween costumes a couple of days ago and I always (well, most of the time...) make good on my promises. Mind you, these aren't costumes I made/wore. I was a bit less creative.
A bubble bath:

It's that time of year again, when those cobwebs hanging from the ceiling fan can be attributed to seasonal decoration rather than household neglect and children are scrambling to find the perfect costume.
And while I'm all for trick-or-treating - I did it for as many years as I thought I...

It's October and it only seems fitting that an arts and crafts blog include a bit about that glorious gourd, that sensational squash, that omega of orange vegetables: the pumpkin.
Pumpkin carving is just something you have to do at this time of the year. At least, if you're a holiday addict like...
