I did my Halloween celebrating last week at the Free Times Halloween Party, appropriately dressed as none other than... a deviled egg. (Are you even surprised? 🙃)

So tonight, I have 5 pounds of candy ready for all the trick-or-treaters in my neighborhood. But beware of a little devil + a sushi roll when you ring my doorbell – my four-legged children are getting in the spirit tonight, too. 🐶

But FIRST – catch me at Jake’s Yappy Hour Pet Costume Contest, judging all the pups living their best life in-costume. I’m partial to pitties, so if you have one, bring him/her out because your chances of winning already increased. 😉
