Halloween Candy!!!

Oh yeah - I have 3 bags of it sitting here next to me at my desk. I decided to buy some today then get more next weekend when Mike & I do our grocery shopping. We have a lot of kids in our 'hood, so I figured I'd better stock up; I'd rather have extra than run out and risk getting egged. LOL In order to maintain will power and not tear into it, I got myself a Reese's peanut butter cup - the big one - to satisfy my chocolate obsession. :)

Re: Halloween Candy!!!

  • Hahaha! Yeah, these kids now days will definitely shake you down for some candy...lol...we still have to get ours. Our problems is once the kids are gone, we both end up eating the candy for weeks! I'm thinking of making up goody bags for the younguns and handing them out this year. Usually, we put everything in this gigantic basket that we have, and let them just go for it!

  • I'm waiting until the day of to buy it - otherwise there is no way it will last. 
    Natural m/c 8/31/12 at 11 wks BFP #2 - Due August 16!
  • I have to wait to buy it until the day before/of or my hubby will devour all the snickers/kitkats/milkyways etc.  I've learned my lesson in the past!

  • LMAO - yeah I have that part covered. In order to hide it from the family, I will be putting it in the cupboard where I keep all my baking stuff. Mike never goes in there and Amanda can't reach it, and neither of them know what I keep in there since it's above the fridge. I do have to find a way to sneak it past her when I pick her up after work tonight though! :-)

    As for the extras after the holiday - we have a treat jar here at work at the old reception desk. I'll bring it in here so everyone can share it. It'll be gone in no time that way!  :)

  • I don't know if we will pass candy out this year. DH and I do not have the greatest will power and we are both trying to drop a few extra pounds we have put on since the wedding. Plus, DH's b-day is on the 28th and we will have left over cake (don't need any more sweets than that).
    There is a time for everything and a season for every activity under heaven. - Ecc. 3:1 <a href="http://www.thenest.com/?utm_source=ticker&utm_medium=HTML&utm_campaign=tickers" title="D
  • Living in an apt we don't get any trick-or-treaters and it kinda bums me out.  I've thought about going to MIL or BIL house this year. BIL girlfriend has a 5 year-old and I would love to see her in her costume.  The only problem is they live an hour from us and hubby is on-call/has to work that weekend.  Hopefully next year we will be in a house and will have kids in the neighborhood.

    Anniversary

  • We were in the apartment the last few years too & no kids either. Last year we had Amanda on Halloween because it was our Saturday with her so we went over our freinds' house and canvassed their neighborhood. J and I took her 2 girls and Amanda around while Mike and S passed out candy at the house.

    We have her again this year because her mom is working halloween night at her 2nd job; I told Mike it's his turn to take her & her friend out and I'm staying home and passing out candy.  Next year if she's with us she'll be in 8th grade & they will be old enough to go around without an adult.
