Another day of celebrating the Halloween season! I can't believe it's been four weeks now! Some really lovely things planned for today though.
Halloween Walk in the Park
I took one of the residents from Castlerea Care Home for a Halloween walk in Heaton Park this afternoon. I promised him we'd do this when we did our Poetry in the Park session at the Autumn Equinox, so we've been looking forward to it for a while. We spotted loads of seasonal things in nature, followed the scarecrow trail, and talked about all sorts of things.
Halloween Treat Bags
I made us little Halloween treat bags to have with a cup of tea on our walk in the park, with crisps and a chocolate apple each.
Pumpkin and Beetroot Soup
I used up half of the flesh from our pumpkin lantern for soup (accompanied by beetroot and a bit of orzo).
The Lodger
Me and my friend went to Stockport Plaza tonight for an amazing screening of Alfred Hitchcock's The Lodger, with live improvised accompaniment by Hugo Max on solo viola and percussion. This was such a cool event - so happy that we got to see it.
