Halloween 2007


The leaves on the Common are beginning to thin,
as the beauty of fall in Boston sets in,
while the crisp and cool October air
makes my bike ride to work quite a teary affair.

The Sox won the series in a fantastic sweep,
and now I can finally get a decent night's sleep...
The parade passed right by where I work yesterday--
what an outrageous, outstanding, outspoken soirée!

Speaking of work, as you can see from my sketch,
I've been researching chips for quite a long stretch.
It's been fun, it's been grand, to be sure a good time,
but by now I just wish they'd get out of my mind!

Here's hoping that you will enjoy a fine treat,
on this Halloween day when the snacks are all sweet!


When you work on so many projects researching consumers' thoughts and feelings about salty snacks, they start to appear in your hobbies. We even did a potluck lunch in the office with a particular cheesy triangular chip a few months back. I still have nightmares about that.
