Halloween Candy

It has been 10 days since Halloween. How are you doing on the Halloween Candy supply?

I am not one of those parents who gives their kids candy on Halloween night and then throws out the rest. Seriously, why allow them to trick or treat at all? Or, if you are going to do that, go to 5 houses and then go home. That way there is not too much candy to tempt anyone.

As with anyone, Chris and I have our favorites. I am happy with my supply of almond M&Ms, and the kids did not get any of those from trick or treating. Chris likes Snickers, and the kids are happy to share those with him. Other than that, we can care less about the candy. Half of the candy is in the freezer!

We give the kids 2 treats for snack and sometimes one more after dinner. Afterall, you are only a kid once. And, we rarely allow them to have candy at any other time of the year.

So...we will let them have their moment at being kids.

They can eat their candy and enjoy it, too!
