Oct. 17: Pumpkin has been done to excess, which is fine! I love me some pumpkin smelling things. If it was possible to get the scent of an all that trick or treating candy all mixed in together without it being too headache sweet, that would be a good one. You know as the smell as soon as you open the bag for just give a good sniff of the bowl with it all in there. I’d like a candle with that exact smell. 

[CynthieLu]

Ooh that is a pretty delicious picture your painting of that candle. @alexasteph yum! But what would you name it? Maybe... Halloween Stash?

[Titian06]

10/16: What villains do you secretly root for?  I can't think of any. 🤔

[alexasteph]

Oct. 16: The Malfoys, Dexter Morgan. 

[CorgiMommy]

10/16:  what villians to you secretly root for?

Gru from Despicable Me series, I just loves the Minions. 

[alexasteph]

@CorgiMommy Is Gru *really* a villain though? I don’t think he is, he’s too sweet to those girls! 

[CynthieLu]

@alexasteph @CorgiMommy Gru is a loveable villain for sure! 

[CorgiMommy]

Maybe he is a wannabe villian @alexasteph 

[Titian06]

10/14: Black cats crossing your path - good luck or bad luck?  How can something this cute, be bad luck?!?  If it is, I'll be having bad luck for years to come!

Do you have any superstitions?  I don't think so.

@Titian06  aww Remi! 😻 wow, he is so big already! Love Pusheen too!

[Titian06]

@caitbird - Yes, I can't believe how big the kittens are already!  They'll be 5 month old this Friday.  They have their special male kitty surgery next Tuesday.  I haven't told them yet. 😁

My teenage and young adult years was Garfield, now it's Pusheen.  I love both!
