Boo.
No matter where you are in the world, Halloween comes around every year and it’s always fun to see how people can get creative with their costumes. Unfortunately, I have to admit it’s not one of my favorite “holidays.” If you ask my friends, they would tell you I pretty much spent the week leading up to it moaning about how I’m over it. I didn’t like it very much as a child and so I just assume I won’t like it as an adult. Surprise surprise, I usually end up eating my own words. My friends (The Wolf Pack) throw an Annual Halloween Bash and as much as I try to deny it, I always have a blast.
This year, for you all, I decided to change it up a little bit. In addition to the awesome bash on the 30th, a friend of my mine (you know who you are brosky) humored me and went into London with me to experience Halloween in a bit of a more sophisticated manner (which is kind of a joke for me because I don’t really know how to be a grown up sometimes). Make sure at some point you check out Navajo Joe in Covent Garden. Soon enough, you’ll learn that I’m an absolute foodie, or to some simply a fattie. So after catfish hush puppies, jalapeno poppers, mac n cheese and enchiladas, we decided to cap the night off with some amazing Hoxton Gin cocktails. Make sure you give this place a try.
So this is what I’m getting at: never deny a good night with your friends, even if it’s Halloween, but it never hurts to mix it up a bit.
I think I’m finally moving from denial to acceptance, Congratulations Halloween!!
Kisses.
