My funnest memories during Halloween are when my dad use to make me and my two brothers costumes. I remember one particular year when I was younger, he somehow took older clothes, made them into cool looking costumes, and helped paint my face as a clown. He had a knack for painting cool looking things, so I remember getting a lot of compliments in school during that Halloween. I also remember being tired from carrying my big sack of candy later that evening as well. It must have been heavier than I was. Fun times.
fun! Gotta love thrifty-ness that actually looks cool.
ReplyDeleteThat is the most innovative idea for a Halloween costume! I have never heard of turning old clothes turned to clown suits, but what a unique idea. No wonder you got compliments. The face painting sounds like it was fun, too.
ReplyDeleteThe best costumes are the ones you make yourself! I always had to make mine myself when I was a kid.
ReplyDeleteJust in case “funnest” isn’t a real word, then maybe “funniest” would be a good substitute. All the details gave this summary a personal touch. Ken, I think you have a knack of telling a good story!
ReplyDeleteGrimes- Actually "funniest" would change the meaning of my sentence. I think "funnest" is like a slang word. I really never thought about until now. Thank you for bringing it up.

*Note: Funnest is a regular superlative of the adjective fun. However, the use of fun as an adjective is itself still often seen as informal[1] or casual[2] and to be avoided in formal writing, and this would apply equally to the superlative form. Merriam-Webster, however, gives fun as an adjective without comment, and states that funner and funnest are ‘sometimes’ used[3]. Because of the remaining stigma, most fun may be preferred in formal writing.
