Feature and Follow Friday and Book Blogger Hop (#7)

Parajunkee's View and Alison Can Read host Feature and Follow Friday. If you want to get to know some awesome people and have fun hopping, it's the place to be on a Friday!

Q: If you could have dinner with your favorite book character, who would you eat with and what would you serve?

Remy from Sarah Dessen's This Lullaby (I wish I had the guts to slurpee people's cars!). I would serve a make-your-own mac and cheese bar where we could top our macaroni with anything and everything. I've seen it done at weddings. And Remy's wouldn't be disappointed with the food selection; she's used to scrounging up whatever's in the fridge and creating a meal. Her boy Dexter and his roomies make that a constant competition between them (think worse than poor college kids who live on Ramen).

Then, once we were besties, I'd invite Death from The Book Thief. Not so he could steal her away but because he has quite a sense of humor. Plus, he relates to everything in colors. I would be completely enthralled with his account of his collections over the ages while Remy sipped a slurpee too loud and made sarcastic comments from the other end of the table. 

The Book Blogger Hop is hosted by Jen @ Crazy For Books. It's a chance for us book bloggers to hop around, make new friends, and get to know one another.

This week's question:

What is your favorite Halloween costume?
Even if you don’t celebrate, what kinds of costumes do you like?

So it's not anything super short or skimpy, if that's what you were wondering. Some girls can pull that off, but I'd be pulling whatever it was down all evening.

In 8th grade my mom made me a Warheads costume out of felt with arm and neck holes. Do you remember that particular brand of sour candy? She drew the package's picture on the front and the back (a guy puckering his lips) and I put my hair in pigtails and my cheeks had red circles. That year my younger brother was a homemade Dr. Pepper complete with an aluminum pop top hat. Our costumes rocked! Anything creative and fun makes me smile. I wouldn't even mind trying a couple's costume with the hubby one year.

Share your answers with me...you know you want to!

P.S. Come back for my Must Read Monday meme when the new week rolls around. It's a blast in a glass:)
