Halloween, not a holiday that I normally celebrate. While we live in a neighborhood and we carved pumpkins, we had decided that we were going to go out for dinner since we hadn't bought any candy. Well, we happened to be watching a movie when the first trick or treaters knocked on our door, so we scrambled for some candy that was in the guest room. Then we thought, hey we have candy in our cupboard...who cares that it was last years Christmas candy or Easter Cadbury Eggs, or fortune cookies from Panda Express, or suckers that came from Dallas. Laugh as you may, little kids loved the egg's and fortune cookies! Soon we were running out of candy, so we added things that Tuf has bought at Costco that we hadn't ate - such as applesauce and propel water and pineapple juice. And then we thought, what about our gluten free kids? So we added some gluten free snacks! We were a hit! The parents thanked us for the healthier choices and loved the drink idea!
Our friend Melissa was also over and she did a fabulous job of passing out candy to the kids!
And maybe we thought all of this was a good idea because us girls had been enjoying our own adult candy...marshmallow flavored vodka (so good!). When we ran out of the flavored vodka we took a shot of the plain vodka (nasty!), we also took a shot of pumpkin spice Kahlua (nasty).
We finally made it to dinner around 9pm...we were very happy!
What a fun day with friends and family!
