Congratulations to all winners. I was right too because I have never been to that island! On to lunch – beef stew, onion rings (double order to share), deviled eggs, and the choco PB pie. Ingrid? … Are you out there? …. Oh … I better get a table where she can see me.

We didn’t see that island either – went to the Murano glass factory but not THAT island and I guess since it’s off limits it makes sense we didn’t even KNOW about it when we were there. HOWEVER, there are some private tours available courtesy of some enterprising boat owners in Venice! Enjoy that lunch – I’m sure Ingrid will show up soon!

There are a few ghost stories about our house. One is about a woman dressed in turn of the century attire that a maintenence guy has supposibly seen more then once (probably after a few drinks). Then there is the man that looks out the window even when nobody is living in the house. So far, I have not seen either.

EEEEK. You and Rose and the boys are leaving that house just in time…..Halloween this weekend – maybe it’s GOOD to be out of there before that?? LOL The only haunted place I’ve ever been is a B&B out in the country that has some rather well documented “residents” who are no longer alive. There was a TV special about it and David and I stayed there a couple of times and YES there were some sounds that “concerned” us a bit. Who knows – there are a lot of things in this world that are strange (like the photo for today’s poetry day…haha). I hope you all have a great trip back to the sunshine state!

But when I read the fun cheer from the cheerleaders, um… I was NOT the first right guesser…maybe there was too much Halloween going on somewhere!
H, Mr Frank!~ Thanks for saving me a seat and some noms. May I add some of the spooky hot chocolate and some ecalr pie to that please?? Mmmm!

I fixed the cheer a while ago – so sorry about that – I was incredibly tired after a long day of working on the artwork, etc. for Teaser yesterday – I wasn’t QUITE awake when I did some things (yawn). I do apologize though. Sometimes as you all know I’m just not careful enough to stop and proofread before I “SAVE”.
