Happy Halloween - From SNL and The Duchess

I love celebrating Halloween! This weekend, Dashing and I went to a Halloween party for his Emergency Department group. We dressed as the SNL skit "The Barry Gibb Talk Show" with Jimmy Fallon as Barry Gibb and Justin Timberlake as Robin Gibb (these are the brothers from the Bee Gees). If you haven't had the pleasure of experiencing this skit, you absolutely must!!! We went all out with the white suits, "chest hair" and "crazy, cool medallions" (all skit references).

Check out the nifty chest hair and long wig on this Dashing 70s icon!

My next Halloween challenge was to find a work appropriate outfit that I could attend all kinds of professional meetings in (how did I end up with 5 important work meetings on Halloween!). I really just wanted to wear jeans and go as a cowgirl, yet something told me this outfit at a department meeting with The Boss (another SNL video reference). So, I came up with a way to express Halloween in the classiest of ways.....no other than Kate Middleton, excuse me, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.

Tonight, I'm making dinner for Dashing and me - I'm thinking Chicken with Pesto, wild rice, and a salad with a pumpkin mousse pockets to finish it off. We're hoping we get lots of trick-or-treat-ers too as this is our first time living in a neighborhood for Halloween!

Happy Halloween!!!
