Life Trick or Treaters - Page 11

Are you ready for the little humans tonight? What's your set-up?

I have all my candy divided and organized as to type in different bowls. I'm pretty anal about how I organize candy by brands.

I will select each candy to match who is at my door. There has to be some automated way of dealing with this, so you can still read or watch TV. Any ideas for that?

I am already snitching bits and pieces. Hope I don't run out.

We had 1 this year. Most years there are only 5-10 total anyway. There are very few kids in our neighborhood.

I remember the Kaufman's gave out candy bars, the ones that cost a $1 back in the 60's.., they were yuge!!! Yes I am that****ing old.
The Stovers lived next boor and some years there would be nobody home and others there would be a Twinkie (bread truck) in the drive way giving out boxes of chocolates..

Had a lot of kids. Mostly from apartments and other places. We have a new house and a new development-so some think we are rich.

My daughter did all of the door work.

Then had a kid show up at 9:15 when the lights were off.

Pretty funny to watch the Chiefs D-Line walk into a hunted house.

Well, whatever, it looks haunted. I'm sure a few holograms won't hurt anything growing.

If kids had the energy they could probably rack up a lot. I also suspect that people today go out to avoid staying at home to give away candy. Probably people don't want their kids having so much sweets so not as much T or T participants.

I'm 41 and it was the same way, once I was about 8 we'd go out with Mom or Dad for a while, then continue on ourselves.

We didn't hand ot candy this year, with 2 under 7 we just took them around. We are the only house on our side of the block, and our steep driveway really cuts down on traffic. A couple of years ago I bought 60 full size bars and gave out only about half.

Heck, even though it was cold and snowed all day, by 8:15 as we neared home I realized we were the only ones still on the streets.
