Two years ago, I almost ran out of candy at Halloween. I had bought four bags of the stuff.
Last year I bought six bags and almost ran out. I was only giving a couple of the little bags to the kids for the last hour in order to stretch it out.
Last night, the weather was perfect for trick-or-treating. I bought seven bags of candy. So few kids came by; I was just about shoveling out candy to the last few trick-or-treaters.
I have over three bags left. All of it is some variety of chocolate (if I were a kid, I would despise Skittles and the other fruit-flavored "healthy" candy).
My co-workers are going to hate me next week, for I am going to "chocolate-bomb" the kitchen at work.

If you're one of the Covidiots who believe that COVID-19 is "just the flu",
that the 2020 election was stolen, or
especially if you supported the 1/6/21 insurrection,
leave now.

I had only 5 kids this year.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't get a lot this year...but 7 of the 10 houses on our cul-de-sac had their porch lights off, and the three that did were at the end, around the bend and not clearly visible from the entrance, so I suspect some parties just passed on by. Lot of kids in the neighborhood.
ReplyDeleteI'm one of the ornery folks who deliberately stayed away from my apartment until after all the shorties' bedtime. Saves on candy costs ;).

It comes and goes, the neighborhoods change. I insist that the wife take the candy out of the house to work or church, bomb your co-workers sounds like a great idea.
