JACK-O-LANTERNS - An Acrostic Poem
I've posted this acrostic poem before but I thought I'd post is again since it fits the occasion.
JACK-O-LANTERNS
by Madeline Barr
by Madeline Barr
Jagged tooth grin
And nothing to say.
Candy he guards,
Keeping ghouls away.
Orange, cool armor he wears. His
Life, an internal light.
Armed with an eerie glow and the
Natural darkness of night.
Triangular, flashing eyes
Examine the area for miles.
Relentlessly protecting the sweet treats but
Never forgetting to
Smile!

Dream Soup
Taken from http://madelinebarr.blogspot.com
I had the strangest dream last night. I dreamed I received an acceptance letter in the form of soup. Yes, SOUP.
I got it from the mailbox and it was chicken soup with pasta words. As I stirred the soup the pasta words floated around with the chunks of chicken and carrots. The words started to surface so I could actually read them. YOUR was the first word, then SUBMISSION. As I kept stirring the word that had surfaced just bobbled around a bit but didn't move. HAS and BEEN joined the first two words. The next word was long and stared with an A.
ACCEPTED!
I kept stirring thinking it was a joke and waited for the word NOT to pop into place but it never did. I was so happy I stared to cry.
Then I woke up.
I can come up with a few meanings for this dream but I want to know what you think.

Pumpkin Carvings
Quick post.
I love Halloween. One of my favorite things to do is carve the pumpkin. Usually we get 3 pumpkins; one for each of the kids and one for me. We have to get one for me or else I'm hovering over the kids telling them how to carve theirs and that's not good for them or me. I usually carve a fun cartoon character because I have young kids. As they get older I will move to more scary stuff.
Here are 2 pictures of pumpkins I have carved in previous years. I either make my own template or I don't use one at all.. I have also done Tigger and Dora - I'll have to see if I can find the picture of those.
2010 - Tinkerbell
2009 - Elmo
I haven't decided yet what I'm going to do this year. Maybe OSO? Any other suggestions?
