Do you have any client events coming up? What’s your favorite part of event planning?
At the moment, I don’t have any upcoming client events! However, I think event planning is so fun! I love watching ideas and all of our hard work come to fruition.
What’s your favorite scary movie and why?
Okay, this might be an unpopular opinion, but I am NOT a scary movie person. At all. The closest I get would be a good thriller!
What is a piece of hauntingly good advice you’ve been given?
A practice I have recently picked up is taking a little time for myself every morning. So I have been waking up 30 minutes earlier and taking a minute to sit, enjoy my coffee and take care of some household chores (that are quick but easy to put off!). It helps me start my day off on the right foot!
Favorite Halloween candy?
I love a sweet treat, and the answer to this question changes constantly. At the moment I would say Nerds Gummy Cluster (specifically in the blue bag) are at the top of my list. However, a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup will always be a winner. Bonus points if the Reese’s in a seasonal shape because I’m convinced those taste better than the actual cups.
What are your ideal Halloween plans?
When the weather is nice, I love sitting out on the front porch passing out candy to all of the trick-or-treaters! Also, some friends and I participate in a chili cook off, and it’s always around Halloween. This will be our third year! We’re currently in the process of finalizing our theme; working on costumes and decor; and, of course, finalizing our chili recipe.
