Fandango’s Friday Flashback —September 25th

First published September 25, 2017

Halloween is a little more then a month away so I have officially lost my mind and I have been busy decking my halls for the season.

So here is a family joke that reflects on my boundless enthusiasm.

Because my idea of taking down Halloween decorations is to turn anything pumpkin related with a face carved into it towards the wall and I will make my skeleton and gargoyle collections look seasonal by sticking them next to indoor plants

someone once asked my Mom:

” How do you know when it’s Halloween at Anita Marie’s house? “

And my Mom said, ” I don’ t know,  how do you know when it’s Halloween at Anita Marie’s house? ” thinking she was helping deliver a punch line.

” No. Really. How do you know?”

My Mom thought about it. ” Well. It’s pretty much always Halloween wherever Marie goes.”

My Mom.

Knowing her daughter better then anyone since 1964
