Well, that's what we'll be hearing tomorrow.
What kind of candy did you buy for the kiddies?
I bought Kit Kats and Reese's PB Cups......even though we only get about 5 kids :)
and an artist I am not....
I want candy!!!!
No candy--cheese curls & potato chips, in case I have to eat them. Looked for packs of sugar free, but not available in the candy section. DH likes Reese PB, but that is for Christmas stocking.
Payday and Clark bars. And Tootsie pops.
in the mini bars... I love the milkyway midnights.... they don't sell them (or at least I have never seen them) any other time of the year... I am not a dark chocolate lover but those are good! pretty sad when you see me picking out the ones that came in the mixed bag to make sure I don't give those away... but we have a small bowl for the keep pile with some reeses pb cups and a few Randy likes... only had to give away that bowl once when we ran out of the small bags I make up for the kids
I like those too, a woman at work gets them in mixed bags and that is what I pick out of her candy dish.
at least i am not alone!
I bought Reeses mixed bag of minis and a bag of small boxes of DOTS thinking I wasnt fond of them.
Heeeh fooled myself and tasted the DOTS, now I have to keep the bowl out of sight.
Allison & Deb, Milkyway Midnight is my DS Joshua's favorite too. Recently while shopping at Shaw's they had bags of
Milkyway M....not mixed just straight M.M.!!! I bought him 3 bags for his B-day and i'm going to go wipe out the shelf tomorrow.
I bought all mini bars...
Kit-kat
Milkyway
Reeses
M & M's peanut and plain
Almond Joy
Hershey Bar
Snickers
What ever is not given out tonight, the hunters will fill their pockets in the morning.
I like to plan for total consumption so I dont have to steel myself for toolong
Kids? I bought candy for me! Are we supposed to give it to kids? I thought it was bad for their teeth?
It is.
I got some EYE candy, look...mine own little Pixie!!!!!!
The back.....
Made my day!!
She's too cute!!!
Thanks Jen, she's such a ham! She kept holding up her wand and saying "ook"! (Orryanna talk for 'look') She's just turned 10 months on the 14th and says 'what' and 'No' already too.
Very cute Celeste!
Thanks Deb, I think so! lol
What a cutie! Just back from trick or treating with the kids. Waiting for the kids to come here now.
I used to hang out at a mini bar. Met lots of cute small women...
The Adorable Miss O is stunning in her fairy princess digs, Pixie! She's quite the little lady speaking already. Many of us remember when she was born, so this seems pretty quick for her to be talking! We're expecting tons of little ones for Halloween tonight....Oh, PLEASE take all this candy away from my grasp. I'm chocolated out! I bought the stuff too early and those little tastes are worse for me than a GIANT biggo candy bar that tells me I have had enough! I know I've gained 10 pounds in 3 days!! :(
I highly doubt that I'll have any trick or treaters. But, I have a few of those ghostly shaped things that similar to reeces peanut butter cups just in case. If I get more than one or two, well they'll have to settle for granola or fruit! lol
No customers as yet & 3/4 of an hour to go--glad that we bought the other treats in preference to candy.
I have run out of candy. A little early, but at least I made it to 7:30.
And can you believe some dumbass was driving down the street like it was noon? On a suburban residential street on Halloween night (after dark with sidewalks filled)? ggrrrr
Now I get to wait a bit to go bring in some decorations...some rain/snow scheduled tonight and it'll muck up some of the stuff.
I hope it went well for everyone! Happy Halloween!!
No goblins showed up, so we will be eating 6 packs of Jax & 8 of chips this weekend & next week.
We had some really cute little goblins, and finally at 9:17, when four kids came, I split up all the rest of the candy and made them take it all so I won't be tempted. I should have bought stuff I don't like.........like candy corn. Next year! It's all gone now. Whew! Happy Halloween, everyone!!
I used to buy stuff I didn't like but it turned out DH liked it. Then I bought stuff he didn't like and he learned to like it. Then my kids got old enough that they thought it was there for them. (On Oct, 28, the first time ever I'm buying candy, you think it's for YOU??) This year we left the lights out and didn't buy any candy and went to DD#2's football game. (Don't say anything, she's a cheerleader!)
Finally had two come--very polite middle school age girls with their polite golden retriever. I had to apologise for not having any dog treats.
Just about six graders and under.
They came at 6:00PM all from this street with parents.
Little fairies and a wee darthvader, even a spider in a stroller.
The few teenagers we have just waited until dark and whhooped and yelled then drove off.
Probably going for beer and will do "lawn jobs" later.
Gave out the last of the small toys I buy instead of candy about 8. One little girl - maybe three years old - cried because it wasn't candy. LOL.
totally adorable Pixie... the best ones I saw were a bunch of tweens dressed as all the pooh characters .... totally cute... the 40 small bags I made up were gone in two hours.... and we have 1/2 our reserve bowl left.... had more visitors this year than last.... going to have to bulk up the stock next year since it will be saturday.... all day ... ding dong
We had a good group this year but then for once it wasn't 40 below. Lot's of fun costumes but no fairies or pixies :( Thanks for sharing yours Pixie. Fortunately there are still some little chocolate bars left which will be my energy bars for the annual 'spreading of the poop' which I'm working on today. How come the little chocolate bars taste way better than the big ones?
not sure... but they always do seem to... even after the 20th one
:)
Maybe its because they cost less.
I remember Almond Joys for tencents.
They have gotten smaller inside those large wrappers and the prices have gone way up.
You can use left over mounds bars baked inside a chocolate cookie, mmm.
your killing me
Sorry, I'll bring you one when I bake them for Christmas.
OMG I am trying to lower my blood sugar.
Doctor threatend to increase insulin if I dont get things under controle.
Insulin makes me gain weight, not what I need, its a catch 22.
That's why I only said one:-), be good til then!
