I love this time of year. It will be in the 70s during the day but we will be covered in layers of blankets tonight. Halloween has become an evening of company and fun. A party.
Our neighbor Melanie will be turning 16-years old this Halloween. It seems just moments ago that we held her as a new born baby. She is coming to visit, to open her present and to enjoy some hot-spiced cider and a birthday cupcake. I love visiting with her and talking about her life.
Later, Natalie and her entire family will be here to Trick 'N Treat. Their complex does not allow it so they use us as their base camp. Natalie with take Oliver out to just a few houses on our street while Ethan and Winnie run house to house for as long as they can stand it! I will have goodies ready for everyone.
We have been enjoying the World Series and it will be hard to adjust to a normal evening when it is all over. Watching a ball game every night has become a routine! Michael is waving the 2010 Giants Rally Towel during the first game of the World Series. I guess it worked!
Me? When I am not pacing, I am in my recliner biting my fingernails. We have the night off tonight while the teams travel back to Detroit.
And I am heading back to rehab this morning, then to the butcher's and mom's and Target and Trader Joe's. Here are the menus for the week:
Fresh fish - We are going to the boats to buy some fresh fish sometime this weekend. It will be served with some roasted vegetables.
Lamb Stew with Eggplant, Tomatoes and Peppers -

The chicken is very different from the other Parmesan Chicken of two weeks ago. No tomato sauce on this one! Really good.
