Boating not your thing but you still want to head down to the water? Why don't you hit up the Just Cauz Halloween Party happening at the Bell Harbor International Center on the Seattle waterfront this Halloween, with all ticket proceeds ($25/per) benefiting charity. This has always proven to be a fabulous event, so get dressed up in your finest, grab your honey, and make this a Halloween never to be forgotten!
Okay. So maybe hitting the town all dressed up isn't your cup of tea. Perhaps you'd much prefer a quiet and spooky night in with your sweetie!
That's perfect! Start the evening off by heading over to your local grocery store (or, if you have the whole day, head to a pumpkin patch!) and pick up a couple of carving pumpkins (don't forget the tea light candles, cider, and wine!!). Good-sized pumpkins typically run about $5/piece. Spend the next couple of hours elbow-deep in pumkin guts (don't forget to save and roast the seeds for a great movie-time snack!) seeing who can carve the best spooky face! (Brett and i try to carve ours to look like each other. I win every time!)

Once your pumpkins are carved and lit, it's time to cozy up in front of a spooky flick. There are so many to choose from, you could even have a marathon!
Getting hungry? Order a pizza from Pagliacci, Seattleite's top choice for delivery pizza! They're promising to assist all of you vampire slayers with free garlic on their whole pies on the 30th and 31st, to keep the spooks away. (You may want to think twice about the garlic, though -- it can keep more than just the spooks away!)
Be sure to switch the front porch light off, so you don't have any unexpected trick-or-treaters at any inopportune times! ;)
(One of Brett's and my first dates was carving pumpkins (he'd never done it before!) so this date idea is one of my favorites!)

Trick AND Treat, everybody!
