Oh what a fantastic weekend it was. It started with just being able to see some of the best friends that I hadn't seen in a little while, like Chris and my ginger, Kirsten. We had been invited to a Halloween party, and let me tell you, I sure love Halloween.
I love coming up with an original, funny costume, and I feel like Kirsten and I really did that this year. We went as the great Russian gymnasts Komova and Mustafina. Our costumes were complete with medals, name badges, hair clips, and LOTS of hair glitter.
The next day was a hell of a great day for a Georgia Bulldog. There is nothing like college football, and the rivalry game between The University of Georgia and those jean shorts wearing people from Florida. And for the first time since 1988 and 1989, UGA won back to back matches. The game on Saturday sure was an ugly one, but a win's a win, and a win over the Gators is oh, so sweet.
Sunday has been quite the lazy day, filled with job applications, junk food eating, and some healthy cooking for dinner. I tried tempeh for the first time, thanks to my lovely vegan roomie Ann. I have to say, I sure enjoyed the tempeh chili she made, and would definitely eat it again.
For my own dinner, I went with one of my tried and true favorites, sautéed onions and yellow squash. It was even better tonight because Ann suggested using Mrs. Dash, and it added just the right amount of extra flavor. Definitely using it every time from now on. My nice, warm, home-cooked meal was quite the addition for the cool weather that we now have, which I am absolutely loving. I live for cool, Ugg boot-wearing weather.
Now, to finish my evening, there will be more job applications, but with the addition of the greatest Halloween movie ever made, Hocus Pocus. I kid you not, there is no other Halloween movie that even comes close to the amazing-ness that is Hocus Pocus. I watch it approximately 15-20 times every Halloween, both on TV as well as on my own, seeing as it's one of my favorite DVD's that I own. I'm also still wearing my Ugg's, which I should have removed while cooking, seeing as they have now suffered an oil spill, and will forever bare the mark of my favorite dinner.

Tempeh and bean chili is definitely approved by this non-vegan

My favorite Halloween movie, and my poor, forever stained Ugg boot
I will also leave you with what could be my favorite scene from the movie. Definitely top 3.
