    What are you doing for Halloween tonight?
    Attending a party? Taking kids trick or treating?
    Do you hand out candy?

    Handing out treats! I love seeing the kids in costumes!

    I really miss taking our son out trick or treating; we always had so much fun!

    It's going to be cold, here, though - might impact the numbers, but it's hard to tell.

    The main road is closed so I'm taking the brood out TorTing round the shops there. There's a few houses in the area that also hand out the candy. The local dentists hand out toothbrushes though.


    Short answer : no Long answer : NOOOOOOOOOOO!

    Actually I usually partake and hand out candy, and I even bought candy this year. The thing is I'm quite stressed of late and when I go home I just like relaxing and I really dislike the idea of running to the door all the time. So I'm gonna be a grumpy Gus, and hoard the candy to myself. My fiancé thinks it is quite convenient that I bought my favourite candy, but honestly, I did intend to. Honest!

    It will be a busy one today!! Bring treats to my granddaughter's class at noon. My youngest turns 15 today so a house load of teenagers after school for supper and then transporting them to a movie , and of course give out treats as long as we are home. Spent an hour de-icing the side walk yesterday so I don't have any of the little ones wipe out coming to the door. I will sleep well tonight!!

    i normally hand out candy, even til the last of the grown teenagers with no costumes stop coming lol

    tonight however, i will only be trick or treating with the kids. hubby is back this afternoon after being away on a very tiring 3 week trip. he will be totally wiped, in fact he has a fever and is fighting a cold, so i won't make him hand out candy tonight

    Have a safe and fun day and night everyone!

    I will hand out some candy. We normally get between 0 and 5 kids coming to our house (5 was a major record last year!). I would normally just open up a box of DH's nutrigrain bars to hand out, but he decided that we *needed* to have chocolate bars to pass out so he bought a box of 100+ bars and treats, all chocolate. Now, seeing as I am allergic to chocolate, I wonder if there was any ulterior motive to that decision on his part?????

    Edit: DH did point out to me that the 100+ count box had a much lower unit cost per bar than the box of just 40 chocolates did. He rationalized that he was saving money by buying in bulk (regardless of the fact that he doesn't really need any of it)

    I do recall you mentioning that you would be having some major deadlines for your research and thesis this fall. I hope that it hasn't got you too stressed out. Although I know that the more you do now, the faster it'll be done, don't forget to get up from the computer every once in a while.... I almost completely missed going outside in the month of March this year (although I hear it was quite nice!)....

    And yes, very convenient about the type of candy. I might just buy some of my favourites (sour gummies or strawberry-flavoured Nibs or strawberry-flavoured Starburst) on Thursday or the weekend, although not as much as DH decided he needed!!
