Saturday Stops - Bonfire

All Aboard the Meme Express – Saturday, October 31, 2009

Today is Halloween, which happens to fall on a Saturday this year. Welcome to the weekend!

It’s time for Saturday Stops at Meme Express. Each Saturday, we offer a few weekend words for that day’s prompt.

As neighborhood trick or treaters put on their costumes and prepare to go door to door, begging Halloween treats, we will be building a big bonfire. You see, we have so many trick or treaters on Halloween each year that it really makes no sense for us to await those doorbell rings.

So we plant ourselves in the yard and hand out Halloween candy to trick or treaters much faster. And we go through about 15 bags of candy each Halloween. This year, we’ll be passing out Kit Kats, M&Ms (plain and peanut), Milk Duds, Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, Three Musketeers and Whoppers. (Which is YOUR favorite?)

The Meme Express prompt for today is:

Why not write your own blog post today – about a bonfire or your own Halloween traditions?

What are you doing this weekend?

Perhaps this concept will inspire you to create and post a drawing, a poem, a photograph, a short story, or a journal entry. Then return here to leave a comment with your link. (Be sure to include a link to the Meme Express. Grab our train graphic from the sidebar for your link, if you want.)

Of course, if this prompt seems to stump you, feel free to peruse the archives of the Meme Express and publish a blog post on an earlier prompt.
