2 1/2 hours. That's how long I was out walking with Noah and his friend tonite. My friends gave up after an hour.
And the candy....Willy Wonka doesn't have this much candy in his whole d@mn factory!
There are candies in here I've never heard of. Some that Noah won't even know made it into his bag.
*sits down and puts feet up, cozies under a blanket and cracks open a S'Mores candy bar*
Sooo.....ummmmm...candy anyone?

You can still have a piece of candy Mr. Majestik. I don't discriminate.
There weren't as many kids as usual for us so we had people towards the end of the night giving us fistfuls of candy.
I even had some put in my Cowgirl hat.
So...Reeses or Tootsie Roll?..oh..look...a Snickers...

Today is Samhain. Samhain means November!
So Happy Samhain to you as well! lol
Did you have a nice one?
I make Noah leave his bag down here. I fear for his health should he take it up with him! lol
So, those 4 minis added up to one normal size bar..maybe?
Has peanuts in it, so it's already better than a bowl of Coco Puffs!

I went out to the pub dressed up with my friend.
I got puked on, twice, and ended up having to carry my friend up the stairs in her house and put her to bed even before the night had really begun!
I think that deserves me getting some free chocolate!

we had no where near the amount of trick or treaters that we usually get, but on the plus side, more sweets for us
We are the music makers, We are the dreamers of dreams,
Wandering by lone sea-breakers, And sitting by desolate streams;
World-losers and world-forsakers, On whom the pale moon gleams;
We are the movers and shakers of the world for ever, it seems.

Well that just sucks..
for AimeeWhat kind would you like Aimee? Light, Dark, Milk, White?
*passes Aimee bowl o' chocolate*
So, my sons candy bag weighs well over 8 pounds (as high as the scale I could use went).
That's ALOT of candy.
Some dude on our route was handing out money. We liked him best!
No apples, pencils or toothbrushes this year, though one bag of pretzels. *shrug*
I still have a couple of Halloween Parties to go to. Off to find a new costume tonite at the half price sale!
Or I should just cover myself in taped on chocolates with a sign that says eat me!

Doh! Right you are...My brain is not working very well for the time being...a bit on overload....
Lots going on with my church and I'm having to handle irate board members...new circle dedication...Samhain Celebration this past Sunday here...now got to handle this weekends circle, full moon and a paganism class next Tuesday to teach. Add my regular online course work, cleaning house for picky old ladies and dealing with my kids arguing with me and i'm just ready to go hide in a hole somewhere!!!
Brandi's Snickers bars are disappearing at an alarming rate. Can't imagine where they are going! 
There is an othodontist in Raleigh that is trading kids $1.00 for every pound of candy they bring in to him...is putting up $500. of his own money for it! He's also donating $1.00 for each one that he gives to charity (forget which one). Pretty darn cool!

I think so too ravehead! Wanna go to a party on Sat night?
FyreSpirit..there's a dentist who used to do that here. We would take him half the candy. lol I always joked that he kept the candy for himself! lol
This year, now that Noah is older, I highly doubt we'd be able to wrestle any of the candy from him to do it.
You know, you have a Snickers (peanuts=protien), a Milk Dud (milk=dairy), fruit gummies (well, it says Fruit), Candy Corn (corn=veggie)....look...a well balanced meal! AND if all goes wrong with the teeth, I have two sets of gummy ones here for you to help with that.
(trust me, I understand busy. Don't forget to chill for yourself a bit. Nothing is worth a break down).

Nothing like a balanced diet!!!
Thanks, lady! I'm feeling a bit better. I have a tendency to look after everyone else to my own detriment...have a bit of a saviour complex. But...what doesn't kill me makes me stronger so, I should be one VERY strong little woman!!!

Pele, as you can imagine my neighborhood was jumpin' last night.
It's really fun to play "Halloween Costume or Not?" on my block as people walk by. It's not as easy as it sounds.
Well, shall we go?
Yes, let's go.

Pele...yes you got me!
And I have decided that since some of the members in the church seem to want to disregard others' feelings, I'm gonna tear 'em a new one and make the focus of my circle this weekend compassion and consideration!!!
I'm quite looking forward to it!!!
Thanks again!!!

Make the focus compassion, concideration and acceptance and invite them in with perfect love and perfect trust. If they act out after that then you can justifiably tell them that they are not practicing what they preach.
If you rip 'em a new one ahead of time, they might miss the point whilst being angry.
Don't forget to offer them candy.
Chocolate releases endorphines that make people feel happy, even if only temporarily.
Hey...who took all the Kit-Kats?
I want one!
Wanna see?

Alright, ante is a peanut butter cup, Reeses, no crappy generic stuff, or a Snickers (for FyreSpirit

Ooooh, candy!
*sits down*
Halloween kind of snuck by without me noticing this year. I didn't make it out to any halloween parties, for various reasons, and living on the 6th floor of an apartment building we're not likely to get any trick or treaters.
Maybe next year...

Okay, that settles it. I think the HoPpers should get together for an Incredible Edibles party and dress in or like their fav treats!
Talk about a decadent party!

)And btw Mand...
Oh the havoc we could create though!
