Halloween Candy

Happy Halloween!

This was a very strange Halloween. Last year over 100 trick or treaters came to the house to collect candy. This year there was a grand total of TEN! I don't get it though. Halloween was on a Friday night this year, and yet nobody was out. In my neighborhood, there were very few houses giving out candy too. Did everyone decide not to celebrate Halloween this year? It looks like I have a whole lot of candy to eat now.

Even though hardly any trick or treaters saw it, I still put up my Halloween display. The pictures below are of some of the monsters that I build, all from scratch, mostly from paper mache:

Halloween Candy Corn

Target now has their Halloween department set up, and a bag of candy corn was purchased. Eating one or two pieces of the candy is good, but beyond that, the candy gets sicky-sweet. For some reason the non-traditional pumpkin-shaped candy corns tasted the best, although it's all the same candy.

I still want to try a a few of Hershey's Candy Corn and Pumpkin Spice Kisses that I originally saw at Hershey's Chocolate World. It's all too much candy though!
