Went to one of two excellent local farm markets this weekend. Marker-Miller Orchards This one is more for apples, they have pick-your-own apple orchards and tractor rides and THE most delicious apple cider donuts this side of Johnny Appleseed. But they also have pumpkins and this year they have quite a few "warty" pumpkins. Creepy! Next weekend we will take V for her first trip to Hill High Farm. This is where I go pumpkin nuts. They have ACRES of pumpkins, a corn maze, a haunted house and THE BEST pumpkin fudge you have ever tasted in your life!
I stumbled upon Creature Feature last year while looking for some new music for Halloween. After listening to "Greatest Show Unearthed" I was hooked, actually obsessed would be a better word, and I HAD to have the album. It was very difficult to find a downloadable version but I finally did on an indie site and bought it. It's now one of my year-round go-to albums. The music is fantastic and the lyrics are clever and "In" enough to obviously be written by true horror fans. You can sample some of their songs here and buy the album here. It's much easier these days.
