Scarsellas Meatballs And Penne Dinner

 


So yes, it has been a long while since I posted any Blue Plate Specials updates on the Grassy Knoll Institute. Hell, its been a long time since I posted any updates. However, the wait is over. I have in store over 100 restaurants and fast food joints to update plus hundreds, yes, hundreds more updates from every Grassy Knoll Institute categories. I might even toss in an iron throne post or two, or three. 

Anyway, pictured above is a Meatball and Penne dinner from Scarsellas restaurant. Dish comes with three meatballs, good sized meatballs, and tasty by the way. And plenty of well cooked penne cooked very well. Add the spaghetti sauce and you an absolutely fantastic meal. 

Cost was a very good $12.99

By the way: Hello Dale. Thank you for the diet coke. It was truly the pause that refreshes.

The grassy Knoll Diner rates Scarsellas Meatball and Penne dinner 5 out of 5 stars and highly recommends for dinner.

Is It November Already

Only 364 more days until Halloween... To soon... Yea, thought so.

One thing I thought I would see last night but did not. Ken and Barbie Halloween costumes while the kids were out trick or treating. Not one Ken, not one Barbie.  

To be real, there were plenty of kids out collecting candy. That made me feel good. The hours were 5:30pm to 7:30pm unlike in years past when it was 5-7pm. 

Unreal isn't it. Halloween, with such a buildup, comes and goes so fast, like you are riding a sled down a hill with no control of your speed or destination until you wind up on November 1st. But, I am now off the sled and prepared for the rest of the year. Yes, there is plenty of candy still in the kitchen which I will take it to work and pass it out to any and all who wants or needs it. 

Oh, by the way, this is the last post for the 2023 Halloween season. We had a glorious season, everything went smooth, weather was OK, good costumes, good fun, and good times. 

Here is the ending time.

Thank you everyone who came to my site and viewed the Halloween Dark Zone of the Grassy Knoll Institute. I am still here. I will say, I am still enjoying this blog and its readers. Especially during Halloween. 
 
I am ending this post as I have in the past previous seasons. I am staying put right here. I am not leaving. I am staying here until I am the last blog in the universe. 

Happy Halloween to everyone once again. Thank you for viewing and commenting and I will see you all next year. I guarantee it.


Happy Halloween

Best Halloween Yard Display 2023


 In all my travels in the neighborhood the past two months checking out Halloween displays I came upon many displays. 

Some were good. 

Some fantastic. 

But none better than the picture above.

This yard display had at least 8 figures with some standing 12 and 14 feet high. And all of them illuminated for the evening viewers to take in as they passed by in the car or walking by. 

Did I mention I love the Halloween season? 

Happy Halloween

Real Or Fake Halloween Prop

 


So I was at the Canfield Fair back in late August visiting all the tents and I happened upon this tent. They were displaying props and scare item for the upcoming Halloween Canfield Scare grounds events that happened in late September and October. 

Do you see the figure of the girl in the background? As I approached closer the girl was not moving. Not a single movement. 

I was now intrigued. 

I had to know.

I was certain that she was a real actor just waiting for me to get near so she could jump out and scre the Hell out of me. 

I did move forward and said hello there hoping for a response. But I got nothing. Not even a blink of her eyes. Not even a breath of air. 

I approached up close, waved my hand in front of her face, and with no movement, I touched the figure. Alas, it was a mannequin. A damn good mannequin. I was and am impressed. 

Happy Halloween
