Fozzie: (outside the door) Wow--this candy bag is really heavy!
Kermit: (edging the door open with his flipper and grunting a little with effort) I'll make a deal with you next time, Fozzie.
Fozzie: What?
Kermit: Next time--I'll carry the candy, and you carry Robin back from the Halloween party.

*Muppet ghost deposits a tray with cauldron cups filled with fizzing lymon soda, pieces of pumpkin cheesecake, and blackened red-striped candy canes for Apt 5's residents.
Consider it a final treat on this night of witchery as recompense for a well-crafted story. :drool:

*Fatatita pushes the stuff in their baggies to Uncle D.
Mmm, how defrightful. This, the photo, is going up on our wall.

*Bat leaves a few blackened red-striped candy canes at Apt 10 for T and her roomies.

You ran into a Sirius Black? At least it wasn't your hubby Rodolfus LeStrange you bumped heads with. Now that would've been awkward. :scary:

*Fatatita nibbles on a black red-striped candy cane.
:batty: How did they get that color anyway?
Me: Oh, it's a special Halloween flavor... Blood black cherries. Mmm, I love that soda, too bad we haven't gotten it in ages.

Uncle D: Did you hear some people in HV already set up their holiday decorations?
Me: Must be the folks who came from Frogtown Hollow. Whenever I hear their singing, I know November and the holidays are near.
:batty: So vhat plans are there for T-Day?
Me: Well, you mister have a plane to catch to rehearse for your annual parade float appearance. That'll take care of the morning.
:batty: And once I get back, ve'll have the feast in the afternoon...
Uncle D: And finish up with a second helping of the new movie in the evening.
Me: Only because we planned it that way—and because I don't get the NFL Network on our TV to watch the Harvaugh Bowl that night.
