Faux-Hunt: Spooky Trimmings

I've just been informed that vox hunt doesn't exist anymore! There goes my easy subject matter for the times when I remember that vox exists. :(

I also found out that I had been promoted as the sole host of a group that I joined a couple of years ago. I wasn't even the earliest member of the group, that at least would have made some sense on the part of whoever promoted me before leaving the group. That was an odd experience. ;)

I'll have to come up with my own vox hunts, or something.

So today. Show me some Halloween decor you've got up this year! Something harvesty or just plain autumnal will do. If you don't have anything this year, but have some old favorites, share that instead.

Here's some of mine from this year:

Vox Hunt: Two Minute Self-Portrait

Grab and piece of paper and a pen and draw a self-portrait in under 2 minutes. Then share it with us.

I probably had a little more time and could have added more details. I should have set a timer. :P

I did this looking in the mirror, and then I flipped the scan.

QotD: My Collection

What do you collect?

A couple of things come immediately to mind. 1. Mighty Muggs, I have 9. I haven't photographed all of them yet.

2. Cameras. I have over 20, I haven't taken a tally in a while. All but one or two of them are fully functioning, and I use them all.

Praying Hands

Vox Hunt: Arts and Crafts

Show us something you've made recently.

A cupcake ds-lite case out of felt for my friend Megan's birthday.

I have a few more projects I need to work on. A monster sunglass case for my sister and a domo-kun ds-lite case for my brother. I really need to get on that.

Vox Hunt: Apples to Oranges

Show us a picture of your favorite fruit.

Clementine aka Christmas Orange. Sweet and easy to peel. I eat them like crazy when they're in season, especially when I think I might be getting sick.

Conrad Farms in Bixby

    On Wednesday I went to Conrad Farms with my parents. We used to go sometimes when I was a kid, and I think the last time we went I was about 13 years old. It was familiar and strange all at once. When I was a kid it was kind of fun because it was so different. I liked the smell of dirt and vegetables, and I liked to eat them when mom made them, but I didn't really care about buying them. I liked to plant flowers with my mom, a lot, but I don't really remember enjoying picking them out in a greenhouse.
    Now I feel entirely different. I purchased vegetables for my own meals and plants for my own garden. It was kind of surreal to go in, fill my basket with food and pepper plants, buy them, and take them home to Pwhisker Hollow. I felt like an adult, and between playing The Sims 2 and taking photographs and devising new holidays and having treasure hunts and trying to decide where to house the toy collection, I don't often feel like an adult.
    Any discomfort I may have felt at the thought of growing up was quickly dashed as I treated my parents to Sonic, where I had a kids meal with a grilled cheese sandwich, fries, and a chocolate milk. I love Sonic because it's the only place I can get a vegetarian kids meal. My toy was a little tin car that opens up. I played with it in the backseat of the car on the way home.

Vox Hunt: Oh Baby!

Looking at clothes instead of doing the dishes.

I really love the idea of blouses like this, but I have no idea what they would look like on me. No experience whatsoever. This is another reason I want to have a girls day with my Mom & Elaine. I don't feel guilty looking at clothes with them like I do with Shaun. Poor Shaun, he endures a lot for me when I'm feeling girly. I love him so very much.

At least I have absolutely NO desire to buy shoes. You have to be thankful for the small things.
