Halloween 2007 (rocked!)

This was the least-effort costume ever - all I did was buy the carnations - everything else was already in my closet, even the Frida necklace. :)

Excellent! Loved your outfit, but I'm sorry to say that my favourite one was the "nudist on strike"!!
It must have taken a looooooong while to figure that one out ;)

Oh my - its Tricia and Tracy (ps you talking more with the one and how is she faring as a resident?)

And great costume. I even did a double take!

I LOVE the nudist on strike! So clever!

You looked great too! Where was the party? Work? Personal? I'm insanely curious to see what Hugh Marlboro looks like :)

~Jo Ann - Yes, the nudist on strike was very clever. He won the prize for "least effort, most impact".

~Lacithecat - I actually hadn't seen Trisha in ages. I need to go have a coffee with her and catch up. Tracy is doing well, despite the fact that we ate horse the other day. :)

~Left-Handed Trees - Thanks, D. It was a really fun costume to wear. Despite the monobrow, I felt very pretty with all the flowers.

~Stacie - Girl, I did a trial run the night before and freaked when I couldn't get the eyeliner to come off right away! I was really proud of my efforts on the night of the party, though.

~Brendan - Ooh, you are brave to wear something that warm-sounding this time of year. See if you change your mind once you are here!

~Anonymous - Thanks for the link. I'd actually seen the article earlier this morning. Very interesting, though certainly not a phenomenon limited to the banana industry.

~Amber - Thanks, friend!

~Marcia - He did have a very clever costume. :) It was a social party at a friend's house. Nobody from my work was there, though I don't think I'd have the courage to post a photo of Hugh Marlboro, even if I didn't outright say it was him...

AH! I love it. Frida is one of my favorites and I've gone as her in the past. However your costume simply rocks. Glad to see you are doing well!
