(A) Starts with the Letter "Q": The fruit, Quince, starts with "Q".  Quince isn't very good eating raw, even with salt. But it is delicious when cooked, pie will be my choice.

(B) A Favorite:  This Wednesday, October 30, is my birthday.  It's a big one in that I've lived so long but more so that the number does not end in zero or five.  

Still I might run away.  I have done that before and Mrs. Jim always comes with me.



Then after a nice meal comes a good nap!

(C) "Q" for '"Q"uiet' (Tom's choice):  Shhh!!!

Please be Quiet, dogs are sleeping.  Both of these dogs of ours are playing and sleeping NOW in Doggie Heaven.

(D) Reflections:  Window facing the Parking Lot at our local McDonald's. 

(E) A Lagniappe for you:  A couple of Halloween Holiday Items I wouldn't want you to miss.  The Blue Pumpkins  were for sale at our local Kroger Store and the cute Scare Crow was at our church lobby for a photo op for families.

My Two Questions (you can answer just one if you'd like):

1. Does the little celebration at Halloween make you feel happier? If not, why not? Yes. It reminds me of the time that I went Trick or Treating with my kids.  Now it's grandkids and greats but someone else goes with them.

2. What is the Whacky Halloween item that you have seen, or own?  Mine is actually cute, a couple of seedy scare crow folk, man an wife. 

Bonus Questions:
1. What is your favorite "Q" word?  "Quaint" is my favorite "Q" word because I love going to antique stores where perhaps I will find something old to add to my collection.  An old toy, preferably some with wheels.  Or a cup to add to my Texas Bluebonnet Cup collection.

2. What are your thoughts about Scare Crows?  I always wanted to make a real one but never got the job done.
