The season premier of Bad Movie Night!  We watched Forbidden Planet (which isn’t actually that bad, but amusing for how dated some of it is).  And then we watched Robotica Distructiva.  Which was positively hilarious in its awfulness.
Here’s a screen shot.

I decided that, in spite of the completely absurd weather we’ve been having, it was time to put away the tank tops and sundresses, and get out the flannel and sweaters.

The local theater had a screening of “The Breakfast Club” this evening.  So fun.  Our host welcomed us to the “first GenX movie night” and I asked, “does that mean there will be more GenX movie nights?” And he said that is the plan.  Bitchin’!

The local UU church had a vigil this afternoon.  I went. I needed to be around actual living humans (as opposed to the virtual ones on social media).  Being UUs, they were of course extremely lovely and welcoming.

Sometimes, you spot funny products in small local stores.  This amused me.

…hazel, that is.  I’d kind of forgotten about Prisma, but I messed around with it today.  Fun!  I’ll have to keep this in mind.

Sukkot is the Jewish harvest festival, during which a Sukkah is built: a temporary hut constructed for the holiday, and topped with branches and other autumnal decorations.  Some people build one in their yard, and eat meals there (many people even sleep there).  But I guess if you don’t have a yard, that’s when you call the Sukkah-mobile.

Not the greatest picture, I know, but still kind of cool.  My intent was to take a photo of this hawk as he sat on our back fence, but he flew off just as I took it.

So I peeled on of my steamed eggs this morning, only to discover that, under the shell, it was completely coated in ice.  Weird.

Today was the last day for the local farmers’ market.  I have gone just about every week, and we have been enjoying some nice tasty fresh local food all summer.  Last year, there was a small winter market; I’ll have to keep an eye out for it.
