Not Really a Halloween Party...

It's Halloween!!!!! Unfortunately for my young American husband to be, it's not a very celebrated holiday in Denmark. We don't like to be scared all that much... We like our mood to be on an even level at all times. I tried to surprise him with a little Halloween celebration, so I thought I would make crepes for him, carve a pumpkin and then we could watch a scary movie. However I didn't have time to go and rent a movie so we had to watch Corpse Bride. Which I personally find a little scary at times, but I don't think Kyle felt the same.

Then there was the pumpkin. All the pumpkins where green and way too expensive. A medium size greenish orange pumpkin which should have been sold two months ago, costs 15 dollars at my local corner store. Therefore I figured that I would save my money and just make my apartment look really dark. It didn't really have the same Halloween effect though. It just looked dreary.(Speaking of carved pumpkins; yesterday I saw a pumpkin carved as Barack Obama - pretty impressive I must say.)

Anyways, back to our night: So we had no pumpkin, no scary movie but at least we had crepes - kind of... Everyone knows that Kyle is the crepe master, so I had a lot of pressure on my shoulders trying to make him crepes. I really did my best but the crepes however ended up either not sticking together or burn, but only in the middle so they had big holes in them. They were a sorry looking little bunch. Here's my thought though: Maybe crepes aren't suppose to be perfect on Halloween. These crepes would have scared any other of the fancy looking crepes that Kyle usually produces. Hence I think they were actually perfect in the spirit of Halloween. In spite of this I must say that I would prefer the crepes Kyle makes any day.
