The summer we married, my husband was in graduate school, and I was employed as a teacher. We took a portion of our savings that summer and purchased a sailboat. We christened our Catalina 22, “Hyacinths For The Soul” after Saadi’s poem. Our "Hyacinths" provided years of pleasure.

    I always forget about this ME meme...LOL...that was fun to type! ;-)
    I have lots of ME fabrics & have made quite a few items that I could showcase. Hopefully, I'll remember to join in next week.

    Your little witchey-pooh is adorable!

    Hi Sarah! What a cute tin! I saved just a few candy corn in case I needed a decoration for fall/Thanksgiving! Happy November:@)

    We had a busy Halloween night with a lot of very cute trick or treaters. My husband and I always enjoy seeing all the kids in the neighborhood and giving out candy. Luckily the weather was very cooperative and it was perfect trick or treat weather.
    Have a great week.

    Love the little tin! We've got about half a bowl of candy corn left here. I wish it would disappear so I'd quit eating it every time I pass by. Sugar overload!

    We had a good time at the bonfire last night, and the rain held off until the fireworks were over. I didn't have any candy corn at all this year!

    Still have lots of candy here at the Red Couch home. I don't have any M.E. stuff, but what is wrong with me that I don't? I love her artwork and her sayings and your little tin is so cute! Joni

    Per usual, we didn't get any trick-or-treaters around here. So I didn't buy any.

    Hi Sarah,
    I just left a comment for Sweet Bee about how funny I think it is that the three of us all have the same little ME witch tin. I don't think there is a whole lot of ME Halloween out there. Your candy corn tin is too cute!
    I've been leaving the link up open on ME Monday just in case someone forgets on Monday. Thanks so much for sharing with us all this week. Happy Monday!

    We HAD candy corn. I loved it since I was a kid and we all ate them by levels of color. Still eat them that way, haha!

    Out of candy corn? Why, to the husband that might be akin to being out of water or electricity.

    The tin is really cute!

    Love that vintage ME tin, Sarah! I miss Home Companion magazine and all of Mary's wonderful ideas that were in it.

    We had a surprisingly less than normal "Trick or Treat" turn out this year! I actually have candy left over. I made my husband bring it to work. Too much temptation!

    Hello! Thanks for visiting - candy corn is my favorite - I could make myself sick with it :P
    While creating the post on forcing Narcissus bulbs, my inspiration a Christmas with Victoria book quotes "If you have two loaves of bread, sell the one and by a hyacinth for your soul" -it made me think of you :)
