As in, all the best of what that I spend time with every October.
What Media
Rocky Horror Picture Show is always on the list. When I was a kid in Dallas, TX, Rocky Horror would start running on broadcast television all through October. My mom loved the movie, so, of course, I loved it too.
I said list. Every year Richard of Doomedmoviethon.com and I have a list of movies and specials that we have to watch throughout October. I could’ve sworn I have blogged about this list before, but it doesn’t look like I have. I will correct that. For now, just know that Halloween isn’t Halloween without having seen the Rocky Horror Picture Show and also, Martha Stewart’s Halloween special and Slumber Party Massacre.
We also have a special USB drive mix of music for the car. Henry Hall is starting to feature more and more prominently, and it wouldn’t be complete with a few versions of “Mr. Ghost is Going to Town.”
What Food
- Pumpkin seeds – not that I ever stop eating these all year, but the ones we made ourselves after carving pumpkins have a special kind of flavor. I love the way they sing. It might be one of my favorite sounds.
- Pumpkin bread – I found an awesome recipe for pumkin bread done in a slow cooker. It is cakey, like a breakfast loaf, and it is lovely!
- Pumpkin and turkey chilli – if ya’ll haven’t tried pumpkin based chilli, you should give it a go!
- Pumpkin juice – ordered from the Universal store.
