Each year we put together individual bags of candy with at least 6 pieces of candy. This year we put together 70 bags and only got 15 kids... total bummer. The last few kids got 3 bags each. At least we had some happy customers... It was kind of depressing too - some of the 'kids' were taller than me. The numbers keep dwindling!

WITH. NO. CHILDREN. The one glimmer of hope last year was a fairy princess escorted by her father. He stayed on the sidewalk and glowed, and when she turned to leave he called out, "what do we say?" She turned and curtseyed and lisped out "saank yoo." Awww. I gave her extra candy. I still can't wait to move.

Quantity depends on age of the trick or treater and how the candy supply is going in relation to time of evening. Since they hold the sacks open and look expectantly at me, I guess that's how it's done down here. The costumes were lame here this year, too. If I had to name the best costume, I suppose it would have to be the dead pimp! I drop one or two pieces of candy into the little ones’ candy sacks.

The adults who collect for the two years olds in strollers, and the teenagers do not get to pick and get ONE piece of candy, ONE. I dont say know, we have a small nieghbor hood and I don't want anything happening to my house or dogs. The older ones get two and get to pick. The art of the creative costume is over. So apperantly are masks, and those costumes made of paper crap we used to wear. I've always wanted to make it known I'll have a contest my my house, winner gets a prize, everyone gets candy i get to pick the winner and you better put some effort into it. I'd get three girls in ballerina outfits thier grandmas made I know it. the costumes were weak too, one boy came in his peewee league football pads and uniform (cop out!) two sisters came in wigs with devil horns (one red, one blue), and one came as a kitty kat, and a not a good one.

Come on, A., your kid barely has teeth; B. If you're old enough to make a baby, you're responsible for your own candy procurement! Any god costumes?
