Some of my favorite recent Halloween memories are from my work at Elizabeth Seton High School. Something about the nostalgia of Halloween and that memory of feeling too old to Trick or Treat but still wanting to be part of the fun (and the candy). Here are three images from my classroom... plus a bonus! ?? 1. I had to find something the first year! I don't have costumes lying around. My friend Elizabeth Traynor had made this for me. 2. The class was about Hospitality & Tourism Management and the pineapple was our symbol. So, yeah. I went all out. 3. I was a little more subtle in this one - I still love my little witch hat. Very demure :) #Halloween2024 #happyhalloween #halloweencostumes #spookyseason #favoritedaughterfavoritethings #favoritedaughter

AI and automation tools are like your new best employees—they help you get things done more efficiently. https://lnkd.in/eP84MK8h #artificialintelligence #AIforsmallbusiness #AItechnology #favoritedaughterfavoritethings #favoritedaughter
