Wow. Those carrot fingers look quite gruesome. Nut/trail mixes are a really good, healthy treat. I’ve been snacking away on them all this week at work.

Crystal,
Just want to say hi, play dough-great idea!
YES, Halloween is FUN! And very special to me,
my grandson is my lil’ pumpkin!
It’s a great feeling to give stuff out and
put a smile on kids faces, that does my
heart good!!!

I love Halloween, always have. Halloween stands for fun, that’s it.

I don’t eat sugar so I don’t think I’ll have a problem tomarrow night. I agree Andrea, having treats once in awhile, especially a holiday is fine. I gave out play dough the past two years.

Hmmm. I think I might be the stalwart here. Once per year – maybe not Halloween exactly, but ONCE (or twice) per year, I see the charm of the all-out sugar binge.

It makes you a bit queasy, hopped up on energy, possibly a little sick, and while you’re in progress it just tastes so darn good.

So, I will keep doing it. One a year. Maybe twice. With no regrets, other than a stomach lurching that helps hold off any desire to repeat the process until the next one.

Does that sound like the rationale for a college drinker? A (gasp) marathon runner? Perhaps. But oh, boy, that sugary goodness.

Sorry. You might want to shun me now.

[...] but I voted early, so neener-neener. What’s your excuse? Anyway, in the spirit (heh heh) of Halloween, I offer you some costume (here, here, and here) and pumpkin carving [...]

Erin,
I totally agree with you, celebrating Halloween doesn’t make you less of a Christian. Even here in the city i live Pastors open their churches and have Halloween parties for “ALL” kids in this city to stop in. My opinion is that celebrating any holiday is about getting together and having “Fun!”

Actually, i esp. love Halloween because my grandson was born on that day, and i celebrate!!!

Great Post, i love all the trick or treat ideas, esp. the veggie plate, that’s too cute!
