B. Does Baltimore: Fed Hill-oween!

This post is going to be pretty short because there's really not a whole lot you can say about Halloween. I mean... you know the drill... COSTUMES, BOOZE, DANCING.

I can't even explain how I excited I get when Halloween rolls around. It is absolutely one of the funnest holidays to celebrate, especially as an adult! As a kid, Halloween is fun because you get to stuff your face full of candy and go into a sugar coma, whereas adults stuff their faces with alcohol and usually dress inappropriately for their ages... and sometimes body types. Even though it wasn't quite All Hallow's Eve yet, we celebrated last weekend in Fed Hill with one of my best friends and our main squeezes. CJ and her man went as Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox while C. and I went as Minions! We all looked super adorbs and ended up having so much fun. Federal Hill does Halloween up big with a celebration called Fed-Hill-Oween which is totally worth the $7 ($10 the night of) they charge you to participate. It's basically a bar crawl throughout the neighborhood and a super fun costume contest. We arrived around 7pm to the headquarters, Mother's. This is where we picked up our wristbands which is crucial! The wristband guarantees you discounted drink specials at each bar participating and when you pick up the wristband, you are also given a number. We put our number on C.'s back so people along the bar hop or just people on the street could text it in to vote for our costumes. The best part of the entire night was just people watching and judging everyone's ridiculous costumes. It was so much fun. Lots of drinking and dancing (including CJ and C.'s dance off at Ropewalk Tavern) and just a ton of fun. If you are ever in the Baltimore area for Halloween and you love dressing up... please participate! You won't regret it... unless your costume is bad. And trust me, there were some bad ones...

Below are some pictures of our shenanigans from the night. It's ok if you laugh at our ridiculousness... we did! :)
