I'm catching up (slowly)! I really was incredibly busy during October - and not just with Halloween stuff - so it's been quite hard to keep on top of these posts. I'm getting there though.
Today's Tea
Wednesday's tea was Witches Brew from Midnight Imperium! It's got apple, hibiscus, ginger, cardamom, cinnamon, cloves, pepper, stevia and cornflower petals. Have to admit, I'm finding the teas with stevia in them a wee bit too sweet for my tastes. I think I'd prefer the spices on their own.
Today's Story
Wednesday's classic tale of horror was 'A Ghost' by Guy de Maupassant.
Silverweed Road
This week's tram reading was Silverweed Road by Simon Crook... there's a new horror behind every door!
Pumpkin Carving at Crumpsall Park
I had a great time at Wednesday's pumpkin carving with the park ranger in Crumpsall Park. Lots of creative, messy fun... and the squirrels ate like kings afterwards!
Crumpsall Park Story Walk
And then after the pumpkin carving I led the Friends of Crumpsall Park Halloween Story Walk in the park yesterday. It was a lot of fun, and the kids had some great creative ideas!
Let the Right One In
We were at the Royal Exchange on Wednesday evening to see the stage adaptation of Let the Right One In!
Live and Spooky Campfire Stories (Shane Hawk)
Wednesday's penultimate Campfire Stories video from Flame Tree Press was Shane Hawk reading from 'Imitate', which is featured in the new collection, First People's Shared Stories.
