I’m scared I won’t have enough Halloween candy—I
buy about five pounds of the stuff—and I don’t think I’ve ever run out but nearly
did one year, and I never know whether to limit trick-or-treaters to one piece,
it kind of depends on when they show up, and I wonder if it’s scarier to have
leftover candy that one likes or
leftover candy that one doesn’t like,
and I tend to get candy that I like despite the danger, e.g., tonight I had to
sample an Almond Joy, a Reese’s PEANUT BUTTER CUP, and a Baby Ruth to be sure
that they were OK, and if I do decide
to leave town tomorrow instead of doing Halloween, all
that candy could be my office
contribution for the year.
Our dentist will buy it back at a $1 a pound for up to 5 pounds. Sends it to the military somehow.
ReplyDeleteI bought three bags early, and somehow two are gone. So today I'll buy more, and 3 kids will come to the door. If I just went with one bag, then forty kids will suddenly materialize. Rich's office will be happy.
ReplyDeleteI never thought of sampling the candy to ensure it's OK. I'm on it now...
ReplyDeleteWe're out of town for Halloween, so no trick-or-treaters and thus, no candy which is a good thing because we both like candy.
