Happy Halloween!
This year is a no candy year, which I may live to regret… but I will live with those regrets!
I usually buy the candy I like (because the kids all like that stuff too!)
A HUGE yes to candy corn! lol
The Grinch who stole Halloween deemed no decorations this year! Ha!
No costumes for me… sad, I know!
This year is a DARK year at my house!
Hmmm… I have done both and while I think the pumpkin pail is cute the pillow case is much more convenient!
We live in a Skeleton Free Zone! (no blow up anythings on my yard!)
If only I could gauge who was the “last trick or treater”… sigh.

So we no longer have trick or treaters. We live on a country road with no sidewalks or safe shoulder to walk on. The few families with kids go to the near by neighborhood around the corner rather than venture our way. I miss them sooo much!
So:
Buy the candy we like in small amounts
Yes to candy corn
They are lucky I have candy
No costumes
Turn out the lights at dark
pillowcase
No skeletons
Eat the leftovers
Treats forever!

Candy corn YES (I have a funny Candy corn story. When I was a kid I ate them in order–I would lay out five candy corns, eat all the tips, then the middles, then the bottom. Well, I was doing this after school one day and my brother came in and swooped them all up and ate them–that is, he ate the parts I hadn’t eaten yet. We were young enough to get grossed out for days).
