October 10th: Grim #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter #ChillingPhotoChallenge #Grim ((One of my favorite Twain quotes 🖤🌓))
1. Can you believe I didn't read any of the children's classics until my late teens? I think my most "childish" book was the book tagged and The Little Prince and I wouldn't call them favorites ?♀️
2. Chocolate cake!
3. Is watching movies a hobby?
4. Near the beach.
5. Tagged! You're it!

Costco shopping with @emilyhaldi ! I resisted buying for myself due to the swaps I‘m involved in. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I found a few Christmas gifts though and I thought theses classics they are selling looked good.
Got this exciting package today from @bookish_wookish 🎉 Yours will be delivered Sunday in an Amazon box. . . I may or may not have written my dates wrong thinking I was mailing it Monday. Long story short: free express shipping is a lifesaver. 😂😂 #theretellingbookswap
#floralfriday #foliofriday #funkofriday so many Friday tags, and I am the king of them all. (The goblin king of course)
Jareth guards some very Grimm #fairytales in my garden today.
Perhaps there's a spell in there to give us some crisp autumn sunshine for the weekend ahead.
Hope you have fantastic plans. If you do, what are they?

What's your favourite fairy tale?
Mine has to be beauty and the beast. (Mainly because I love the idea of living bad-temperedly in a rambling old ruin of a castle with a lavish rose garden.
Illustration is from my folio edition of the tale.

I'm going to have to reference my inner child for today's #LyricalApril prompt with my small collection of children's books and fairytale compilations. #SweetChildOmine @Cinfhen
