Did You Dress Up?

So many adults are claiming Halloween as their right to party, that I wonder if this is about the kids anymore? I mean, so many people are going out to parties tonight – will there be anyone home to hand out candy to the trick or treaters?

I am dressing up and going out – but I am staying home to hand out candy until after 9:00. I think there will be at least 40 or 50 kids coming to my house this year. But 9:00 is late for little kids, so that’s when I’m cutting out the porch light and stopping the giveaways. Then I will head downtown and find some of my friends at a club and have some adult fun, too.

Halloween plans

As of right now, I’m not sure what I may be doing for Halloween. Usually by now, I’ve got my costume planned and candy has been bought, since the kids around my house usually don’t go out on actually Halloween night. Since it falls on a Monday this year and it’s a school night, they will be coming around on Saturday. I just hope it’s not cold and raining like it has been for the past few years. Sure spoils the kid’s fun.

Happy Halloween

I just wanted to tell everyone Happy Halloween! Have a great time tonight and whatever you do, DON’T DRINK AND DRIVE! I hope all the little kids out there have an amazing time Trick or Treating. Don’t forget to save me some candy afterwards. Now go have fun and be careful.

An addiction

I don’t eat sweets very often. In fact hardly ever, but my downfall is good chocolate. I love chocolate. My brother is in the service and travels all over Europe. Everywhere he goes, he will scout out really great chocolate and send it to me. It’s to die for.

I remember as a kid, the man who lived down the road was a traveling candy salesman and he would give my brothers and sister and I samples. My very most favorite chocolate was what was called, Ice Cubes. Even today, if I could find it, I would by cases just because I think by now it’s obsolete. This chocolate would melt in your mouth. Creamy, and just…awesome.

I’m constantly on the look out for great chocolate here in the States also. I keep in in case I need comfort food. Or because I lost a few pounds and feel like I can indulge and not fret about it. So bring on the chocolate. Everyone needs a good dose of it!
