What a lovely night. No costumes no candy, no silly Halloween Haunted Houses. About 25 tricker treaters, just perfect. The best part was the food, the friends and of course the amazing conversation and wine. For dinner we had the Easy Breezy Carnitas with fresh Blue Corn Tortillas from Berkeley Bowl. Yummy black beans from the Crate and Barrel Newlywed cookbook (yes, sounds lame, but is really great), fried potatoes with duck fat and stuffed peppers with three cheese and corn. Then to finish we had very fresh berries (thank you K) and the amazing NY Times Chocolate Chip Cookie recipes (thank you Alice Q foodie). We had great conversation ranging from the debate, to Halloween traditions to the point of Blogs (what was the point anyway?). Overall it was a great night and another one of those Halloweens to go down in history. I am just starting to love those Halloweens that don't involve costumes or anything planned. I like Halloween to be a special night, but not something that involves a lot of thought or insight. This was one of those perfectly non-thought out nights that will always be remembered.
