The Post-Halloween Blues (And Drippy Oranges)

'Twas the week after Halloween,
(Such a sad tale to tell),
Of all the spooptacular cakes
That somehow failed to sell.

Dried up pumpkin donuts,

Poltergeists calling, "Bo bo"

Plus all manner of K-K-Kupcakes

...a definite "No-No."

 

Runny candy corn noses,

And all things smeary and old,

Is it really a wonder
That this one never sold?

So farewell, poop-kin river,

Farewell, slime-haired wrecks!

And brace yourselves, minions;
Thanksgiving is next.

 

Thanks to Elizabeth M., Attia S., Kat L., Andrea M., Janet P., Jodee R., Amy W., Chris V., & Amy J. for the spoopy send-off.

P.S. Speaking of Thanksgiving, I found something we all need this year:

Accoutrements Inflatable Turkey
A life-sized, super realistic, inflatable turkey.

The applications are endless, really, but go read the reviews if you need some ideas on what to do with this thing. Or set it up on a mantle wearing a fez and sunglasses! :D
