Mia and Dave's Happy Halloween of Horror

ok. since I still haven't found the time to cobble together a rad ass montage, here are a few terrifying pics from Dave and Mia's Halloween shindig last saturday. it was a potluck and we were only allowed to bring food that was orange and/or black. not so easy, eh? that mia has the craziest ideas! ;) I made carrot fritter latke type yummy things (and finally used my food processor! yayayayayyay!) as well as stuffed squash pumpkins with black rice that had things like orange heirloom tomatoes and orange peppers and golden raisins and pecans and stuff in them. shockingly it all came out pretty tastypantsy! oh - and i got to carve a pumpkin. this was happy making. that's him above. that's right - it's voldemort, complete with his snake buddy nagini. i rule. well, either i rule, or i'm a complete and utter nerd. well, maybe both. ANYway....

dave dressed up as...um...uh... well, i don't think we will ever know...



Mia and the AMD have a special moment:



Dave, the AMD and I investigate cheese grater options...



the most excellent new addition to my ear collection:



whew! what a night! all that eating and drinking and murdering and merry-making and cheese-grating and pumpkin carving and mayhem really takes it out of you! i mean, god, it's what? 9:20pm already!? must be about time to call it a night.... (when the hell did we get so old!??!?!?!?!):
