31 Days of Halloween: Day 19


Once again, I'm a bit late posting this. I've got a bit of catching up to do with my blog posts this week. This one is about my festivities on Wednesday, though I have to admit I only had time for a tea and a couple of stories. There's definitely more to come later in the month though.

Today's Tea




Wednesday's tea was Toffee Apple from teapigs. I'm sure you can guess how this one tastes!

Today's Story




Wednesday's classic tale of horror was 'Afterward' by Edith Wharton.

Live and Spooky Campfire Stories (Philip Fracassi)



And Wednesday's Campfire Stories video from Flame Tree Press was Philip Fracassi reading his story 'Autumn Sugar', which features in their Close to Midnight anthology.

31 Days of Halloween: Day 3


Today was a work day, and a very busy one at that, so there wasn't really any time for festive shenanigans. But I still managed to sneak in a tea and a story, and I was wearing seasonal earrings while I did to keep a little Halloween magic going.

Today's Tea




Tonight's tea was the delightfully named Toe of Frog from the delightfully named Monster Mash Teas. I loved all of their concoctions last year, so I'm excited to try a new selection this year! (Toe of Frog is actually quite a light and gentle vanilla green tea.

Today's Story




Tonight's classic tale of horror was 'Kerfol' by Edith Wharton.

Halloween Earrings



Today's earrings were glittery wicked witch shoes. I also had teeny cauldron, witch's hat and black cat studs in but they're not as easy to photograph!
