In October I'll be host
to witches, goblins and a ghost.
I'll serve them chicken soup on toast!

I am opening this to pre-writes but will appreciate new writes that deal with HOSTING. It can even be a funny story (prose) about your worst/best experience hosting.

Thanks!

      yes, but only if either the pre-write or the new write is about hosting. In other words, I'll consider two entries if at least one is thematic.
