If your in tonight handing out candy, treat yourself with a cheese plate and a bottle of wine. Celebrate Halloween in style while watching your favorite scary movie.
My choice
The Original Psycho
By Alfred Hitchcock

Cheese Plate
Monchego, St. Andre, Morbier
Grapes or Pears
Water Crackers
And a flavored honey.
Wine
I recently had an opportunity to try a bottle of L' Oustal Blanc.
I also recommend my favorite a pinot noir from Oregon Called Benton Lane. Happy Halloween.

The leaves are a painting across the skyline. My eyes are blessed by a sea of color on this beautiful warm fall day. My legs are tired from the long incline I have just hiked. It will be winter soon. The nights will be long and my adventures short. I breath in the smell of wet leaves. I look down at my feet. Mud and crushed leaf encrust my toes, but they are not cold. I look up and the sun has dipped down on the horizion. I have lost track of time. Turning I run down the hill side. I take a deep breath and go as fast as I can. My legs feel as if they are spinning out of control. I glide down the hill side feeling the wind and chill. The sun is down too low. I run for my life. He is waiting for me.
