This is why I enjoy Trick or Treat night

     These pictures are only a few of the people who came by.  We had so many Trick or Treaters that we finally gave up on taking pictures.  We went through 16 lbs of candy this year.  We all had a blast.

Trick or Treat night is almost here

    I need to buy more candy this week I don’t have near enough for the hordes.  Thursday I’ll make a big pan of lasagna (in my brand new pan gifted to me by a very dear friend.)  Then on Friday night, all I’ll have to do is heat it up after the children have finished.  It saves me time.

     I supply the garlic bread.  G is bringing over a pumpkin swirl cheesecake that is to die for and I have a weakness for cheesecakes.  The pumpkin swirl is one of her best.  I know this because whenever she makes a cheesecake she brings me samples.

     While the lasagna is cooking Thursday night, I might carve a pumpkin or two if I can the size I like.  I haven’t seen many good ones yet.  Most of them are too short, too small, or too thin.  Yes, I’m picky.

     Friday G and I will spend the day decorating the porch—a haunted house theme this year.  We’ll get our exercise going up two flights of stairs to the attic to haul all the decorations down.  It’s going to take several trips.
