Halloween Tricks and Treats

I love Halloween. For me, Halloween is the "kick off" for all of the Holiday fun that will start to occur within the next few months. On Halloween night my mom makes homemade soup and bread sticks, with cinnamon rolls for dessert! It is such good cookin'! Also on Halloween, you can get free candy. You can go knock on a door and people will just give you candy! Where else can you go in the world and get all the free candy you want? I'm not 100% sure but I think your chances of finding a place like that are pretty slim. (Just a side comment to the free candy bit, it's really beneficial if you have a kid with you. It doesn't have to be your kid, but a child between the ages of 0-12 works best, and you just need to make sure to tell them that the candy is not for them. Also, you get the best results when you dress them in a ridiculous costume, like a carebear with a giant pillow head or something. Lastly, and this is the hardest part, convince the kid to say "twick o tweet" when the door is answered. Usually you can get a few extra pieces of candy out of sympathy because people will think the kid has a speech impediment.) There are two types of people in the world, those who like Halloween, and those who don't. Which are you?

P.S. I'm a full fledged Halloween-er and not ashamed of it!

For the past several weeks I've been deep in thought. Sometimes it keeps me up at night, my brain just processing and thinking and planning and cramping. However, when I sit down at my computer to update this blog......nothing. I apologize to my friends for the lack of clever insights this week. I hope to remedy this problem in the future but the brain is one of the most complex organs in the human body and it might take one mightier than I to figure the cure to my blogger's block.
