Fun Halloween Ideas
Looking for interesting Halloween ideas? Perhaps you are looking for something new to do this year? Here are several Halloween ideas to get you started: Here's a neat tip to make your Halloween punch creepy while keeping it cold: Fill a rubber food service glove with water, and freeze it. Remove the glove, rinse the ice hand, and use it to cool your punch! Cotton candy makes great spider webs! Find candy spiders, and tangle them into the cotton candy. Any color is good, but if you can find green, that's even better. Give your party an erie look with black lighting, and fluorescent paint. Visit a cider mill or a pumpkin patch for a refreshing change of pace. Cider mills are great places for dates. Spend some time drinking cider, walking among the orchards, and get some fresh air. Pumpkin patches are fun for kids. Let them pick out their pumpkins for carving. The pumpkins will cost less than they do in the stores. Movie theaters show double-features and marathons of horror films during the month of October. Keep your eyes open for schedules - Or why not host your own scary movie night? Come up with a good line-up of popular films, make invitations or flayers, and hand them out. And don't forget the popcorn! Looking for something unique to do this Halloween? Why not attend a murder mystery event, or take a haunted tour of your city. Make plans for these quite early, as these events tend to sell out during the Halloween season.

FIREWORKS--OR, OOH, AAH, How Do They Do That?
One of my earliest memories involves a Fourth of July spent at Annandale, Minnesota, sitting on a hill and watching fireworks.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the first time I ever was allowed to stay up beyond my 8:00 bedtime.

Christmas Gifts For Bird Lovers
Choosing gifts for any animal lovers can be quite a pleasure, as it is often a gift that is shared by the recipient with her animal friends or pets. This is especially so with bird lover gifts.

No Paws from Santa Claus
The Holidays are coming and children have thought long and hard about the gifts they would most want to receive this year. Trucks, trains, Groovey girls and scooters are popular gifts this year. Each year lists are filled with the "most popular" toys of that year. There is one thing each year that can be found on many children's lists. A puppy. The image of a bright eyed plump adorable pup dressed in a red bow is an irresistible one. Or is it? Giving a life for a gift is something to think very carefully about. Puppies grow up quickly, cost a lot and need a life long commitment.
