Halloween Party at Anja's House!!!
Hi Mommy,
today, Anja had guests over for a big Halloween party.
Yes, I know, Halloween is in one week, but she always celebrates the October Meeting of the Frankfurt Pet Rat Owners Group with a big Halloween party at her house.
Halloween AND rat owners? 
Sounds scary somehow.... 
First, we helped Anja decorate the house.
First, the front door
Then, the hallway
Look at this sticker of rats coming out of the floor! It looks so real!
Then, we hung up all kinds of ghastly stuff
the kitchen door
the doors
"the brain" of the family
the picture gallery
the cobwebs (even the picture of Anja looks quite scary here!)
the pumpkin candles
the witch
and this guy in the cage who hollers "let me out of here!!!" when you press his belly
When the guests arrived, we had to sit still in a corner, because the whole house was full of people.
But we still got a good luck at the yukky-looking Halloween food that was being served (Anja made some, and the guests brought some).
chopped off fingers
dead fingers with pus
blood pudding with eyes
toenail cake
rats
plague macaroni salad
blood punch
two rat cakes
But the very greatest surprise of the day was ... ta daaa...
the Puking Pumpkin!!!!
All of a sudden, we got a big scare! The Grim Reaper came in through the window!!!
But when we gave him a plate full of yukky-looking Halloween food, he decided not to kill us, after all!
What a relief! 
So we could continue to have a good time. Which we certainly did!
What a nice party!!!!
And the food LOOKED yukky, but it certainly tasted great!
Hugs
Percy
