So Much Sweet, So Scary

First thing I found on my office desk this morning was a Twizzlers, a Strawberry Flavoured Candy. My colleage G left little something sweet for everybody before we came in. How sweet was he! But not the candies. I will not attempt or be tempted to taste the candy, before it turns into a fossil, anyways.

The major part of the work for me on Halloween day is to bar the candies bars and everything sweet as far away as possible. Unfortunately, we only gave out three items from the pail full of candies and goodies we got for the night. Only one masked boy on his roller blade came to our door before 7pm. That was it! The neighbourhood is too quiet to be hunted by trick-treaters. We decided to shut down our decoration lights and go to Olivia's neighbourhood across the street after our visit to Abby's. Still no luck. Houses around here sit so wide apart from each other. And not enough young kids live around.

We decided to go to J's house. His dad has spent past 3 days doing major decorations. He has turned the front lawn and garage into a Hall of Horror. The Kids had such a blast. The trip to J's house had saved our night even though their neighourhood was again not scary enough for the night. The most scary thing is the candies that lay around the house from the scary night.
