Happy Halloween everyone!

The owl pumpkin on the left was, of course, created by the lovely and talented CP.

Happy Halloween! Did a short Trick-or-Treat and handed out candy to 4 kids.

JWBear · 10-31-2010, 09:08 PM

We got 25.

We got 10 (in three door knocks). Mostly, as near as I can tell, Indian kids out experiencing an American oddity (the pack of Indian parents was much larger than the pack of kids and they all seemed quite amused by things.

10 kids is more treat or treaters than the previous 11 years combined (before that I lived on the 14th floor of a secure building and before that in crappy apartment that students rent so this is by far my most active year ever since I was a pre-teen and convinced my mom that I really didn't want to go trick-or-treating so she let me stay at my grandparents and hand out candy which I didnt' want to do either but viewed as better than being out on the streets begging for food).

Wow, the new apartment complex was filled to the brim with kids in costume... on Saturday.

Michigan, especially the rural area I was from, is a relatively conservative place. But, we went trick-or-treating when Halloween fell on a Sunday. We just went earlier in the evening. I was shocked and couldn't find the candy when kids started showing up at 4:30 on Saturday.

Needless to say, the handful of out-of-towner kids that showed up on Sunday got MUCH more candy.

I had 4 kids and those were kids I saw from my patio, went downstairs and offloaded into their buckets.

I had my pumpkin, a few decorations and a couple Halloween shadow producing candles on my patio. I saw kids point up to it but no one ever showed up.

If I am still in this complex next year I think I'll skip the candy all together.

It amazes me how many parents send their kids up to an unlighted door.

I found out that The Boy went treating last night at his dad's. He brought the candy home for ME to go through. Dork.

We turned off the lights, locked the gate and made pumpkin soup and foccacia stuff with browned butter sage and goat cheese. We're the Halloween version of the Grinch.
