Happy Halloween!

Although Halloween isn’t really celebrated here in Switzerland, there are several expat groups that were hosting parties for the kids. We decided that our son is still a bit too young to participate in any big Halloween and had a lazy day at home. We devoured jack-o-lantern and ghost-shaped Peeps brought to us previously by my mother-in-law. Eddie got a little wild with the sugar, but it is a good thing we almost never give him any. We also carved a pumpkin. And I whipped up a Halloween Feast of Squid-Ink Pasta with homemade Alfredo sauce, Shrimp Scampi, and pan-braised Spinach:

We even had Pumpkin Apple muffins! As the evening ended, I took Rosie for a walk and snapped a picture of our pumpkin in the window of our kitchen. As expected, we were the only window with a Jack-o-Lantern shining through.
