Unprepared
For Halloween, but we're catching up. We're trying something different, illustrating those small white pumpkins that are available lately. I wonder if they're edible. My mother's considering them, to see if she has any inspirations. It's been a cold beautiful day, and will continue thus through tomorrow. Wonder what interesting fleece costumes we'll see.
Edith Wharton's introduction of a character: "Anson Warley had had his moments of being a rather remarkable man; but they were only intermittent; they recurred at ever-lengthening intervals; and between times he was a small poor creature, chattering with cold inside, in spite of his agreeable and even distinguished exterior." This is the opening to an excellent story called "After Holbein."
