Halloween Tips |
| Pumpkins are great for decorating inside and out, whether you carve them or not. |
| Or, instead of carving this year, why not paint the scary or funny face on your pumpkin this year? |
| Or consider buying small gourds in addition to the big carving pumpkins. |
| Bring in some fall leaves and acorns and you’ll have a beautiful harvest centerpiece that will serve you through Halloween and beyond. |

| Halloween Poem |
What Witches Do
The witches don their pointed hats,
The witches croak and croon,
The witches ride their broomsticks,
Away beyond the moon.
The witches don their flowing cloaks,
The witches stir their brew.
The witches chant their magic spells,
All the dark hours through.
The witches stroke their big black cats,
They comb their locks of gray,
Yet when the first faint daylight comes.
The witches hide away. |
