Yeah, this is a lot more fun than those cut-out masks they used to have on the back of the Count Chocula box!

Gourdon may have reached his maximum size. Hopefully he'll start to turn orange soon.

Gourdon the Mighty Pumpkin is done growing?

While I do like pumpkin coffee, I'm not actually that nuts about a lot of pumpkin spice-flavoured stuff. These Jos Louis, though, are divine.

I finally scored some Count Chocula. I can't believe we got the current box art in Canada for the second year running! The old boxes always had the cut out mask on the box, this one has a cardboard puppet "Monster Maker".

I fanned on this haunted house blow mold at Walmart last #Halloween and I regretted it the entire season. When I saw it again the other night, I practically tore it off the shelf. 🏚️

A haunted house blow mold. The house is a light purple with yellow accents for windows. There's an orange jack-o'-lantern, a few white skulls, a silhouette of a witch, two black bats, and a black cat lit by a yellow moon.

The same blow mold lit up in a dark room. The yellow and orange accents light up brightly, the dark silhouettes stand out prominently, and the purple house has light and dark segments.

Alright, we took the kids on our annual last blast of summer trip last weekend. I ended it off with my yearly pilgrimage to the Kensington, PEI Haunted Mansion followed by a pumpkin spice coffee. Let the Halloween flow.

Summerween pro-tip: watch The Doomies on Disney+. It's like Gravity Falls mixed with The Goonies and a touch of The Evil Dead. Very recommended.

Pac-Man is probably the cereal I'd like to see released again the most. C-3POs would probably be a close second.

The game fits just fine on a Switch cartridge, but they used a Game Key Card for Switch 2? Make that make sense. #FinalFantasyResonance #Nintendo

The Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch 1 copies of Final Fantasy Resonance side by side. The Switch 1 version is completely on the card and requires no download, but the Switch 2 version is a key that only unlocks a download of the game.

I wanted to try that Saja Boys McMuffin, but I didn't realize it would come in this comically oversized box. The sandwich was delicious! I really liked the spicy mayo. I also tried the new McCafe Cloud iced coffee, which was amazing but very sweet. I wouldn't get it again, but I enjoyed it.
