October 31......2024

Happy Trick R' Treat Day!!

I will be cooking today for our annual "Family" Halloween dinner.  Sam and I live in an area where there is a heavy flow of trick R' Treaters on Halloween.  My kiddos love coming over and handing out candy to all of the little spooks.  



This calls for a Family meal as we wait to hear the door bell ring and hear those tiny voices calling out "Trick R' Treat."

Tonights menu is:
Taco Soup with all the fixings.
Hot dogs with Chili
and
CANDY!

There have been years when the weather was SO cold on Halloween night.  We didn't let that stop us though..... We would bring the fire pit around to the front yard, light it up, and enjoy the evening as we sat outside, waiting for the kids to come by. 

I think this evening is going to be a very WARM one!  No fire pit tonight!  lol

Halloween is, without question, a night of joyful chaos.  Undoubtably, there are costume malfunctions, and a few whose Mask keeps falling and covering up their little eyes.   And then comes the merry mix of Sugar Overload.
We have seen all of these things!! 

I remember all the years with our two daughters.  The big thrill for them wanting to go surprise their grandparents.  


This was Mylee Jo....(about 9 years ago)  
I think it was the last time she got to Trick R' Treat her great grandparents.       (Sam"s Parents)


Yep....... Halloween might be messy, maybe a little chaotic, and definitely a huge sugar Rollercoaster, but for our family, it is the perfect evening with a big mix of spooky, lots of silliness, and lots of memory making.  

Be Safe, Have fun, and Enjoy your Trick R' Treaters.

  2. Hands down, some type of soup seems to be the most popular Halloween dinner entree.

  3. Have a great evening! I’m afraid we haven’t had trick or treaters around here for years. The community here has trick or treating downtown the Friday before Halloween.
