GTKY: Halloween!

FutureMrsW9 · October 2013

So what kinds of treats (or tricks) is everyone handing out for Halloween??? I'm SO EXCITED because this will be the first Halloween I'll have a good amount of trick-or-treaters coming to my house! Growing up we lived in a neighborhood where all the houses were too far apart to really be worth it so even we went to different neighborhoods, then I lived in a condo for about 5 years after college so no kids there, and then last year we were in our house and I was beyond excited but then Hurricane Sandy put the kibosh on all Halloween festivities :-(

So this year I'm more than making up for it and we're giving out like everything! We have one bowl for contains/may contain peanuts that consists of Snickers, Kit Kats, PB M&Ms, Reese's and a few other things. Then the non-nut bowl (already thinking like a mom :-) ) has Nerds, Skittles, Starburst, lollipops and Smarties. Overboard???

That is a really good idea to do the nut vs nut safe bowls! This is our second year actually getting kids so I am excited too! I got a few huge bags of mini snickers, musketeers, kit kat, Reese, etc. assortment. Nothing out of the ordinary! I am debating running out for more- I can't remember how much we went through last year!

I'm handing out the Nerds variety mix stuff first and then the M&M's peanut after most of the Nerds/Sweetarts are gone (just in case of nut allergies...and also b/c they are DH's favorite and he'd be happy to eat the leftovers).

I've got to work so dh is in charge of our trick or treaters. I think we have a bag of mixed non nut candy.

haha, that's awesome!

We're going to be at my parent's this year since they're leaving for a 2 week Europe vacation that weekend. I'm kinda bummed because we've lived here for 2+ years and have never actually BEEN here for Halloween. I wanna hand out candy and scare the little kids at my house

I'll have to live vicariously through you this year

We just moved from a Halloween-central community (seriously, we'd have 1500 trick or treaters at least!) to a new development. I'm not really sure what the vibe is going to be here, but DH bought a bag of assorted Skittles, Starburst, and M&Ms. I'm actually glad he got that bag because none of those appeal to me, even when I'm not pregnant. So I'm hoping to avoid packing on the lbs until Thanksgiving

That is a lot of candy! I love Halloween. I like to give out chocolate like snickers, kit kat. bascially things I like to eat. which reminds me to go buy candy.

I bought a bunch of candy, all chocolate based like Reece's, kit Kat, whoppers, Hershey's, almond joy, etc. now being in the hospital I can no longer pass it out to trick or treaters as planned. I think DH is just going to leave it in a bowl outside our door, or maybe give it to the neighbors if they are passing out candy.

I still have to buy our candy! Usually I get chocolate bars that I like if there's leftovers. I've been holding off buying it because I know I'll just eat it! My dad is taking DS trick or treating since I'm on MBR and DH is away. I'm in charge of handing out candy.

We bought all the stuff we like to eat, hoping there might be leftovers! We have Twix, Milky Ways, M&Ms, 3 Musketeers, and Snickers. Hmmmm, guess it's obvious this is a chocolate-lovin' household.

DS gave me a Starburst the other day though, and it was the most fabulous thing. My mouth watered like crazy while eating it, and it's watering again just thinking about it. Gotta get me some of those.
