Happy Halloween

This is my favourite holiday of the year. As a dear friend of mine wrote "a perfect combination of theater and sweets". Such a shame that not many children go trick or treating downtown. I tried running after some kids dressed up and on their way to the suburbs one year. "Hello, we have candy as well!" It didn't go over so well. The parents lead them off in the opposite direction rather briskly, with a look that said, "Let's get some distance between us and the crazy lady"...

Still, we buy candy every year, in the hope children will come to our door.

This year my beloved came back from the sweets store with Christmas chocolates for Halloween. Apparently, there wasn't any Halloween sweets left. If any children do come they will undoubtedly be thrilled with the glittery delicious Christmas selection.
