October Homework
For October's homework assignment on The Curious Professor Z, The Professor says to "show us what you love about this time of year." Hmm... It's hard to narrow it down. I love many things about this time of year.
I love to see the leaves change colors in autumn. Here in Colorado, they mostly turn gold. They are pretty...
but I prefer the riot of golds, yellows, oranges, and reds back east.
Usually, I love that the weather is getting cooler. This year, summer is hanging on tenaciously. Except for a couple of cooler days last week, temperatures are still climbing to around 80F/27C. Begone with you, heat!
No matter what the weather, I love the abundance of bat merchandise available at this time of year. Bat decals:
Bat fabrics:
Bat jewelry:
Bat kitchen goods such as salt and pepper shakers:
Bat shirts:
And because this is America... processed foods shaped like bats. :D

I love Autumn leaves! And I totally want to steal all that fabric! I wish we got bat shaped nuggets!
ReplyDeleteBat fabrics are my Kryptonite. I cannot resist them!
DeleteThese make me want to eat chicken nuggets!!! And I'm a vegetarian!!! And I didn't even like chicken before becoming a vegetarian! They seriously need bat-shaped tater tots! Just sayin'
ReplyDeleteOkay, that last picture completely distracted me... Thanks for that and for reminding me that our homework is due! Eek!
Bat-shaped tater tots! :D YES! (Are you listening, Ore-Ida?!)
DeleteI actually HAD to eat at McDonald's the other day so I could get a Hotel Transylvania talking toy in my Happy Meal. :P
ReplyDeleteOoh, Hotel Transylvania toys?! I wonder what percentage of Happy Meals are purchased by adults who have no child/have no intention of giving the toy to a child. :)
DeleteGreat now I'm going to have to order a Happy Meal without the meat on the bun and confuse them just to get a toy!
DeleteThe cooler weather and candy corn. <3
ReplyDeleteYes! :D
DeleteBats on the car, that is just too epic!
ReplyDeleteAnd what a collection of bat t-shirts you have! Can I live in your closet?
Ha ha! I do love bat t-shirts (and bat dresses and bat skirts...). :)
DeleteThe salt and pepper shakers are to die for! And then raise again as an immortal vampire, just to get more use out oof them... ;) I wish there was more bat shaped anything here in Germany! I will certainly check McD now, maybe Germany has the same toys?!
ReplyDeleteHa ha! "Would you like some vampiric salt or undead pepper with your meal today?" :D
DeleteHOLY SMOKES!!!! Are those really batty chicken tenders?!? I'm a sucker for Little Debbie cakes ... Swiss Rolls are my favorites. Where on earth did you find those t-shirts?!? And the batty salt and pepper shakers are AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for participating! :)
Little Debbie is such a temptress! I love Swiss Rolls. :) The t-shirts came from Wal-Mart. I normally avoid the place but stop in every October to check the Halloween offerings. This year's selection of shirts was sort of disappointing - I got only the black one with silver bats.
DeleteHeee hee, I have also purchased a similar pair of bat earrings from you-know-where! I couldn't resist!
ReplyDeleteSame here, I couldn't resist! I ended up taking them apart and gluing the medium-size bats to my glasses. :D
DeleteWhere'd you get that black shirt with the silver bats printed on it? I've been looking for one.
ReplyDeleteWal-Mart. I got it this year; stores may still have some.
Deleteis that a bat lace fabric? gosh that is something they should have all year! beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is a bat lace fabric. :) It's one of my favorites.
