Here is my text:
Louisa wanted a witch-costume. A black hat, wig and dress were purchased and donned. This surprised the cats greatly, who were themselves dressed in black.

P.S.
There are pictures to this story. (And now I've added them!) If you would like to see some of them, I will go against Mrs. Jenny's orders and publish them. Just say the word in a comment. Lovisa's real name is Elisabet, my daughter.

Black is definitely the best color for Halloween. (I'm not fond of orange.)
;)
PS. Trust you to work the cats in...and personify them!
what would halloween be without black cats? or dogs? LOL
Come winter Ms. Jenny will probably have us do a "study in white" where the white persian gets lost in the snowy drifts of Northern Sweden, trying to evade the hungry polar bears.
Black as a pit from pole to pole! Black cats, black clothes! Spooky!!!
Nice one, Anna! Fun prompt, don't you think?
This is sweet. I have a black cat, Mojo, and he approves of this one too.
Happy Halloween, Anna!

love the use of the black cats in the story!
Great pics and I'm glad you broke the rules...
haha...cute... but don't follow my lead of being disobedient with Mrs. Jenny...I don't want to be responsible for you getting in trouble... ;)
Cute witch complete with black cat too!
Are witches supposed to smile? ...all part of the 'fooled' you act they have to put on huh!...LOL
Lovely :) Hope the witch had a great Halloween
I love your photos that you have added against the prompt. Somehow they just added that extra touch to your story. Something about black witches hats and black cats for Halloween. Just wouldnt be the same.
Blessings
I love the photos, so glad that you added them in!
That's the cutest cat and witch pair I've seen. Thanks for inviting me back, Anna.
Be well.

Hi Anna,
I liked the story and the pictures. Maybe we're not suppose to add them but your photos do add to the story so I'm glad they're there.

I thought that was your lovely E.
She is getting so big!
And such an adorable little witch with her sleeky and lovely helper!
I'm glad you shared the photos, Miss Anna.
It's nice to see your daughters happy face!
Awww, who is cuter???! :) I love black kitties--I grew up with one. I think I was just a bit older than your daughter when I got mine. I still judge every cat I own against that kitty--he was the best.
I can't believe how grown up your daughter is!!
