The Casque of Amontillado

Ashley planned a SECRET twin event!

  We met up near the city market in downtown Indianapolis at 11 AM.
  
We both got in Ashley's car and what a surprise!  She had a Cask of Amontillado!  
What a rare delicacy and especially unique to find it in such a handheld size!

This is not only a fine drink but also one of our favorite Edgar Allan Poe's stories!  
With the narrative in the background, we enjoyed our first taste of Amontillado.




Then we proceeded to the City Market where we bought tickets for the catacomb tour.  We walked around the market and bought some lattes and pumpkin bread to share!  The music of the square and the fall air made us feel like we were part of the history of this beautiful place.
At noon we started our tour (just like in the Poe story) to the underground.  
We explored the catacomb and learned about its early history and 
possible uses for the underground area. 
(this catacomb was never used for burial or to wall someone and as far as we know!) 


It is, however, a beautiful, historic place which is not very well known to the local community.



Later we had lunch of pumpkin ravioli, pumpkin parmesan sauce, mozzarella garlic bread, 
and green beans with a little witches brew!  

It was a wonderful taste of the fall!


Then we worked on another diaper cake for a mother to be in Ross's family. 
This time it was for a boy, and we are becoming real professionals!


We finished the day by watching creepy shows on TV and enjoying the 
leaves sway on a lovely fall day!  

Best twin day ever!
