ok, what happened to halloween, y'all? when i grew up scores of kids knocked on our door starting at like 4:30 and not stopping until 10:00 or whenever the candy ran out, whichever happened first. this year, when we live in a nice little neighborhood, no trick-or-treaters! even last year (and the few years prior) when we lived in graduate housing we at least had 2 or 3 kids stop by. kids suck this year!
so in honor of halloween and no trick-or-treaters, i think i'll eat a kit-kat (i better get started because we have 2 bags of candy. this, just in time for when chris and i were going to give up refined sugar! sweet!).

We still have 'em in our 'hood, but I missed most by hitting the Vigil at St. Joe's. I was on the verge of leaving there when Mouse called asking if she and her hubby (Mr. Mouse?) could come distribute treats at our house. (She, like you, is bummed by the general lack of T-o-Ts in their 'hood.)
So it was that for the first time in years I did not pass out sugar to hellions small and large. Instead, I cooked some dinner while Mouse & Mr. Mouse did the deed. 7 - 8:30, a few bags gone.
Mouse was disappointed by the lack of courtesy in kids these days.
Same as it ever was,
Izzy
