Last year was the first and only year that i didnt dress up for halloween, but I am back in the game this year with my previously mentioned helicopter costume. I normally try to make my own costume by buying only small items to get started. Here are some of my former costumes: Willy Wonka, Grumpy Bear (Care Bears), Axe-Murderer going by the name "Mellow Yellow" with my axe named "Saffron"...I think you can picture the horror as I sing, "I'm just mad about Saffron, and Saffron's mad about me.....they call me Mellow Yellow--QUITE RIGHTLY."
