Thursday Thirteen #7: 13 Worst Halloween Treats

1. Healthy Stuff: Boxes of Raisins, Pencils, Toothpaste, Toothbrushes (I'm sorry, but it's Halloween... that means candy!)

2. Spider Rings, Plastic Toys, or Loose Change (again, nice try, but no)

3. Most Hard Candy, especially Dum-Dums and Jawbreakers (i.e. Fireballs) Halloween candy should be chewy, and preferably contain chocolate.

4. Peanut butter kisses – the stuff wrapped in orange and black paper

5. Black Licorice

6. Circus peanuts

7. Bit O'Honey

8. Popcorn balls

9. Necco Wafers

10. Wax Teeth, Lips, Bottles, etc.

11. Red and White Pinwheel Peppermints

12. Good N Plenty

13. Rocks

Note: 90% of parents admit they steal candy out of their children’s Halloween bags.
10% are lying.

Halloween: Priceless

$40 for kids' Halloween costumes (Ariel the Little Mermaid and a red Power Ranger)

$20 for 5 pumpkins, ready for carving

$20 for candy purchased for trick or treaters (and packaged so I don't eat it all!)


Conversation at noon today:


"How many more days 'til Halloween, Mommy?"
"Ten more, baby."
"That means I have to have 10 more sleeps?"
"Yep."
"Can I go to bed now?"

Priceless!
