GRIM REAPER LOOT

Post by Pumpkin_Man » Tue Sep 11, 2012 12:56 pm

Hi Folks:

I thought this thread would be as good a place as any to show off all our Grim Reaper Exchange loot, and since I already received my package, I thougt I would begin by posting pictures of what Witchy sent me. The spending limit was $10.00, but I really think the work Witchy put into my Halloween 'Trick or Treat' was worth a lot more then that. Thank you, Witchy. I love everything, and have already put a couple of the things up. The skeleton guy is going to stay out year round, just so you know.
It was Halloween's answer to Christmas.  Everything was neatly wrapped in appropriated Halloween Style paper.  I felt like a kid on Christmas Morning.

Of course, I had to do a shot of everythign that I got.  As you will see, there's the skeleton, and the little Pumpkin Man, which Witchy painted herself.  Great work and again, Thanks.

This is quite neat, and come October, I am going to have a lot of fun with this thing, annoying all my co workers.  The photo doesn't do it justice as I couldn't recore the kakling that it does, but at least you can see it light up.

I never have any luck posting more then 3 photos at a time, so I am putting the last 2 in this post. I think the Witch Circle looks great where it's hanging, but the spider I think would look better atop my head when the ToTers come to the door. Again, great work, Witchy.

This guy will greet the ToTers with me either on my shoulder or my head.  Perhaps he can adorn one of my stereo speakers.

Great wall decoration.  I bet it can also be placed in a window, or used as a stencil for a jack o'lantern.

Cool loot Mike!

Witchy goes all-out.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Definitely a good thread idea.
The dark night beckons. Bear us your soul, it whispers. Expose your wicked delights. Join the rest of us on the wind. The dark night beckons and we answer. Sailing into the shadows.

The tin is hot coco mix, and that's going to taste really good on those late October and early November nights. I like to mix in mini marshmellows, too.

It's supposed to dip down to 48 degrees tonight, so it's going to be a chilly morning. I think I'll make myself a coup of hot coco to warm myself up for the last work day of the week, and a cold but fun motorcycle ride to work.

So was it any good? I think it was suppose to be pumpkin flavored.

It did have a little bit of a pumpkin flavor to it, but it was mainly very good hot chocolate. I added some mini marshmellows, so that may have deminished the pumpkin taste a little. I'll try some without the marsh mellows tomorrow morning.
