Nearly Halloween!

We had a lovely time going out last night. My dress hasn't shown up yet, and I know now that it will be later than Halloween for various reasons (although she is mollifying me by making me a hat and necklace, along with sending a vintage dress or two). Alas.

Anyway, I threw on some stuff that I've had for a while and called myself a Victorian courtesan. I think it worked... I did the makeup myself, finally getting the eye stuff right (I think). I need to buy some of my own mascara, as I had to borrow Kim's. We hung out in a bar for a few minutes while waiting for our table at Bizzarro, and after I'd come back from the bathroom my sister informed me that every single man's head in the place had turned and followed me as I walked along, lol.

Men like corsets, y'all. Hah.

Dinner was great! We had some wine that was described as having "dark forboding fruits and silky underthings", so of course that was grand. Started off with what was actually a dessert cheese plate (apples, spiced pecans, honey, port wine reduction, brie, some type of blue cheese, pecorino). Kim and I had the Forest Floor Frenzy (me again, because it's what I always get), Josh (Kim's husband) had something that I can't remember and Patrick had some sort of delicious beef thing. For dessert we had tiramisu, salted caramel ice cream and a sort of molten chocolate cake. Yum! I love Bizzarro.

Kinda hard to see the waist cincher, but you get the idea.

I can't wait to eat our festive skull bread and watch creepy movies! It's a beautiful blustery day out, with leaves blowing and rain here and there. So wonderful for this time of year.

Happy Halloween, everybody!
