Screw this 85 degrees today! I'm making spicy pumpkin soup...

more or less a Halloween tradition plus I've been in the mood for it.

Rotel and fajita seasoning give it some kick. Also I saute the veggies in chili oil for some

Bring it on, climate change!

It's high 70s here in the high desert, the first year those awful "sexy toilet paper roll" costumes marketed at young women make any sense. Usually they freeze in those stupid things.

Last year I got few kids. This year, I'll only buy one bag of candy and be inundated.

I know I shouldn't kvetch about such great weather after the horrible June-July we had, but sheesh! There's usually snow on the high peaks by the end of September.
