While I try to figure out how to get out of wearing my ridiculous bee costume to the Portsmouth Halloween Parade, I’ll let you read about Lemmy’s ingenious plan to get treats one year.  I’ve got to hand it to him, this plan was brilliant!  I just wish he explained how he got out of wearing a costume too.

Dear Momma Butter,

Happy Halloween! You’ll be very proud of me this year. I figured out a way to maximize the amount of treats I can take home tonight! At first I was disappointed by the small size of my plastic pumpkin. But then I looked over at the nearby construction site, and I had an epiphany! Mike could follow me in a bulldozer, scooping up all my treats at each house, and then he could load them into a dump truck driven by Joy! It’s pure genius! Now I don’t have to disappoint anyone by declining the treats they want to give me.

I’d share them with you Momma Butter, but I think that would just cause you more heartache when Aunt Pansy and her minions inevitably eat them on you. However, I hope you can take comfort in the fact I’ll be enjoying them. Oh, and that Mike intervened this year on my behalf and won’t let Joy dress me in a silly costume. Now I just have to tell Mike and Joy my plan for tonight.

Happy Halloween!

Love,

Lemmy
