Weekender, and a Giveaway!!

Hello, my frozen little Dealers... everyone digging out OK? I pulled out of the parking garage this morning on my way to work, to find a grown man in a FULL bunny costume busting his little puff-ball tail to clean the snow off his car. Floppy bunny ears flapping back and forth as he labored in fleecy warmth against two days of blizzard build up. Any place else I would shout "Happy Halloween" out my window - but it's Capitol Hill, so that may just be what he was wearing to keep warm. :)
What's doin' around town this weekend?

The Denver Post has a good long list of Halloween activities around the metro area - some free, some not, and plenty of great ideas for ghouls of all ages.
__________________________
10/30 - 10/31 - Costumed kiddos eat free this Friday and Saturday at area Sweet Tomatoes restaurants, when accompanied by a paying adult. It seems like all locations are participating, but it is never a bad idea to call ahead before heading out.
__________________________
10/31 - Also, many of the shopping centers around town will have "trick or treat street" type activities happening for the little ones this weekend, including Aspen Grove, which is having a full evening of events on Saturday, including a costume parade for kids AND pets to participate in starting at 5pm, trick-or-treating, hay rides, and all sorts of great FREE fun! See their website for event details.
_________________________
10/31 - Old South Gaylord does a great trick-or-treat street too - from 4pm-7pm, complete with bouncy "haunted castle" and trick or treating on a street closed to traffic. Area restaurants make food available for grown ups, too.
_________________________
10/31 (and beyond) - Run out of candy? Quick, print out these free bowling passes to drop in pumpkin buckets instead (save some for yourself!)
_________________________
10/31 - Chipotle continues their annual Halloween tradition again this year: from 6pm - close, anyone dressed up like a burrito will get a free burrito. So wrap your date in tin-foil and head on over for some cheap eats!
_________________________
11/1- Are you SO OVER the Halloween thing? Visions of Turkeys dancing in your head, (or maybe haunting your nightmares as you imagine trying to cook the perfect bird?)
Then call Williams-Sonoma in Flatirons Crossing Mall (720-887-2900) to reserve your spot for the next class in their series of free hour-long cooking classes, either Sunday, Nov. 1 at 10 am OR Monday Nov. 2 at 6:30 pm. Topics covered range from proper roasting equipment, to ways to flavor the bird and foolproof cooking techniques. Or call your closest William-Sonoma location to check their schedule of available classes.

Most Farmer's Markets are winding down, and I have to say that this weekend would be a mighty icky time to be squeezing fruit at outdoor stalls anyway, in my opinion.
