It was hot this year. 74 degrees! My first trick-or-treater arrived around 6:10 pm and by 7:40 pm I was out of treats. I prepared 30 bags plus the one wrapped book for my 3 year old neighbor. See photos below for what I put in the bag – assorted full size candy, a sticker sheet, and small chocolate. The children and parents were all very polite and thankful. Only one kid asked if they could have more than one bag, and their parent quickly said no. I like giving out bags since the kids are delighted and it eliminates the rare child trying to grab multiple pieces.

Awhile ago, I made the stuffed pepper with a wonderful pepper from my former sister-in-law’s garden. I stuffed it with mashed cauliflower and cheese. Delicious!

Today I got a Halloween cheese tray from Wegmans and enjoyed it for lunch, dinner, and beyond.

I carved my pumpkin at Renae’s pumpkin carving party last Sunday. Photos from the party are below.
