BPAL Halloweenie squee-age.

Just placed an order @ BPAL for some of the Halloweenie goodness. Hadn't had a chance (or the money till now) to really look at it and enjoy all the descriptions and make my choices. Plus I haven't ordered anything in awhile so I felt it okay to splurge a bit this time. My haul:


John Barleycorn
Barley, beer, blood, and whiskey.

To Autumn
Mist and mellow fruitfulness: mist-swirled, moss-covered bark and dry red leaves, apple pulp and knotty galangal, with poppy juice and nutmeat.

Pumpkin Plunder
Freakin' had to just get the whole patch, looks yummy as usual! I usually only get imps of everything but this time... bottles baby. BOTTLES.

And the bonus imp of "Needle in a Haystack"
Hay absolute, sun-baked pumpkin rind, twisting vines, and the tiniest sparkle of gleaming metal.

And oh holy crap... SLEEPY HOLLOW SCENTS!!! Guh.

Ichabod Crane
Dusty black wool, tea with cream, black pepper, muguet, and beeswax candle drippings.

The Witching Time of the Night
Moonflower, night-blooming cereus, white hellebore, English ivy, monkshood, angel's trumpet, oleander, and eastern hemlock.

Also ordered the "Gooey Pillowcase" room and linen spray. The foodie in me is rejoicing.
Lumps of pumpkin fudge, marshmallow glop, cookie crumbs, caramel smears, and bits of sticky fuzz.

It was so hard. SO hard not to buy so much more. I love you kebechet and I love your Halloweenie scents. Have to pace myself though, for Chrismas / Yuletide scents will be upon us before too long!

How extremely cool is the Dia de los Muertos tee? OMG!!!! Next week I just might have to order one.
Eagerly awaiting to getting my hands on these!! Yay!!

I can't log on to the BPAL forum! I requested from the lost password page, even though I used the one I always did to see if that would work. I keep getting locked out even if I use correct usernames and passwords. ARGH!

There have been some awesome talents come out of SNL over the years, I have favorites from lots of casts. But the classic first season "Not Ready For Prime Time Players" lineup is the template.

Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Laraine Newman and Garrett Morris. Add Chevy Chase, Jane Curtin and Bill Murray to the mix, and you could NOT miss.

Jane Curtin and Dan Aykroyd doing "Point / Counterpoint" on Weekend Update... "Jane, you ignorant slut!" Too great.
