(I know I was one of them)

I don't have that much, I just bought a bag of 12 small milk chocolate bars at TJ's, and a few Halloween suckers left over from the LP Meet. But I don't want ANY of it!

Then, on Halloween, we got together en masse at the Methodist church and went trick-or-treating for UNICEF. I realize that it defeated the purpose (giving up your candy to help the underprivileged) but at that age we sure thought it was cool to be able to do both.
Originally Posted By csgoofygirl We had about a dozen. We even had one adult couple with their 15 week old baby (dressed up as a football). They had a bucket with candy in it. The baby was screaming his head off. He was not having fun. It seemed a little odd to me. If I knew them, it would have been totally different, but I have no idea who they are.
Originally Posted By mickeymeg We were really disappointed with how few we had, maybe only 6 or 7 groups of kids. We like to have people over and we all dress up and take turns handing out the candy. We had carved pumpkins and made a lovely little display with them. The neighbour had a bubble volcano going. We had a lot of fun getting ready, but hardly any kids came.
Originally Posted By wendebird We had TONS of kids & actually ran out of candy at 8:45. We also saw lots of kids out on the street. My kids must have gotten 5 lbs of candy. Of course I need to sample it, you know, to make sure it's safe for their consumption.
