Of all the things Tabs was, he was definitely not a minimalist. He’d go big on every occasion, but especially Halloween, and the day after his epic Halloween blowouts I would spend the day drinking green juices and detoxing while he would indulge in even more excess. I’m talking smoked fish flown in from Nova Scotia and caviar, and even though I would insist on eating a salad, I would find boxes upon boxes of Snickers all over the house.

If there were such a thing as an anti-“less is more,” it would have been him.

Yesterday I briefly wondered if he was doing it up at the Rainbow Bridge. I wonder what his costume was this year… I don’t know, I can see him being a golden mermaid.


I offered to throw Rosie a Halloween party multiple times, but she straight-up refused. She just wanted to stay home and quietly study chess. She just finished watching Queen’s Gambit, and now she wants to be a Grandmaster of cat chess.

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

That Rosie is so studious!
Oh man, sweet Tabs still makes me tear up, but it’s all good. So glad to have my sweet Dixie these days. Now that it’s cooler on our island, she’s the best cuddler. Aaah, the magic of cats!
AND, I’m putting on makeup just for the fun of it, as I rarely go out. I’ve always been a lip color junkie; now I’m doing my eyes once again. Your many looks inspire me!
Take care, be safe,
We haven’t finished Queen’s Gambit yet, but we’re loving it! Maybe two episodes left? Rosie has good taste.
