I dig just about everything concerning Halloween. My daughters birthday is the 30th. I wanted so much for it to be the 31st. How cool to have a birthday on Halloween. I have to say that it's a mere shadow of what it was when I was a kid. I guess all the creepy types have forced parents to handle things differently. I was out last night picking up dinner and there were very few to see. I used to go out for hours and scour the neighbourhood.
Now you just can't give out anything without a wrapper. We used to get peanuts and cookies!
