This time of the year is enchanting. The weather is cooling, pumpkins are fully grown, I want to make soup every night and most of all I have a taste for blood, *cough* Red Wine. 

I’ve made the most out of every phase of Halloween: from trick-or-treating and being completely devoted to The 31 Days of Halloween as a kid, to putting hours of thought and design into that years Halloween costumes in college, only to have my full face of makeup sweat off on the dance floor. While I still love dancing the night away, this year I was looking for a way to really capitalize on the part of Halloween that I love the most: the mystical creepy elegant part.

“With this hand I will lift your sorrows,

Your cup will never empty,

For I will be your wine.”
