She’s baaaaaaaaack. My favorite homemaker Martha Helen Stewart has released the 2010 edition of her fabulous magazine, her Halloween Handbook, and I am FUCKING STOKED.
Let’s recap. I have recently started compulsively buying any and everything I see that is remotely Halloween themed. This includes magazines.
I’m sure it’s been back for quite some time now, but it’s the first time I’ve noticed it.
THAT JUST MEANS THAT HALLOWEEN IS SO MUCH CLOSER THAN I HAD EXPECTED.
I am super excited for the dots, especially the ghost dots.
These ghost dots have been part of legend ever since X-Entertainment reviewed them way back in 2007.
I also reviewed them last year. They were a hit at parties, and I don’t foresee them disappointing this year either. Look at them in all their glory:
YES. I shall consume thee, ghost dots. But I will probably just throw your bastard cousin candy corn dots drunkenly at my friends.
But wait, that’s not all …
As you can see from her post, Metalcakes (real name withheld for security reasons) brought the brutal along with the sweetness to NYC for a visit to CupcakeCamp, where she helped judge cupcakes. Brutal.
I was lucky enough to meet up and share some beers at probably my favorite bar (for obvious reasons), Duff’s in Williamsburg. We talked about the posters of awful horror movies in the bar, metal, and Martha Stewart. If you read my Martha Stewart Halloween post, you know how brutal she is.
I was quite happy/honored when Metalcakes presented me with some official merch! Bunches of stickers and a pin! Yay! Here’s one of the stickers, which I must say, is supremely brutal:
Put THAT on your fuckin’ fridge I say for inspiration.
Months ago, I met Metalcakes on her home turf in Chicago, so I was glad to share a moment with her in our hometown. Here’s to those who enjoy all things metal and delicious getting together to make the world a better place.
So I get a little tipsy, end up in the suburbs in grocery stores, and this is the sort of stuff I end up with. Halloween magazines. For moms.
The Taste of Home Halloween Food and Fun special edition came first.
This little gem was cheap ($4.99) and has a nice convenient size, great for travel and subway reading.
