...the coffee is great this morn'n.....MMmmm...low 40's and raining outside....it'll be a cool and wet Halloween for all the kids....

Speaking of Halloween....I remember how hot those plastic costumes were....cold outside, a sauna inside that costume....it's a wonder that we all didn't catch pneumonia...... .....and the costumes all had a distinct smell to them.....LOL.....

Cinnamon taffy apples.....MMMmmm....good popcorn balls....MMMmmm

Coffee is very good. I drink my coffee straight. No cream or sugar. Cold out here with temps in the mid 30s right now. Next week we will have temps in the 70s for a few days.

Taking the short trip down to DC today. I am going to the Wizards - Knicks game tonight. Haven't been to a Knicks game for a while. It should be fun even if they lose. lol

I normally don't add much to mine either, but It's a change....French vanilla is the only one that I ever use...and rarely..then it's back to a splash of milk...??
half a tsp of sugar for the first few cups to get the juices flowing....then just refill black.....

Have fun at the game.....last game I was at was a Bulls game....think MJ....LOL....it's been a while ..yup

I remember one Halloween in particular growing up. Our neighbor's Mom drove us around in their station wagon. She'd drop us off at one end of the block and pick us up on the other. We kept our treats in grocery bags in the car so our bags didn't look full as we were out and about. I ended up with four of the paper grocery bags full. What a haul.

There are a line of dead and streets where I live. The Moms could wait on the main street while the kids go down one side of the street and up the other. Then, they could go one block to the next one. Yet nobody does it. We didn't get anybody last year. Sadly, it's a different world out there now.

The kid traffic around here varies from year to year....but never heavy...I think the most that we've seen is still under 20 kids...??

I remember those hauls too, Bob.....back in the day when the 'trick' in Halloween was still used.....anyone care to mention one of your tricks....LOL

Coffee is great this morning!! I have a weekend off for a change.
Living out in the middle of nowhere, we never get any trick or treaters. I always buy candy that I like cause I end up eating it anyways.

Even when we lived out on the farmette, the boys would bring the grandkids around to grab candy.... ...

My 91 yr. old mom is coming over to pass out treats here.  She asked to do it.  I buy the Halloween bags of microwave popcorn and the kids always love it.  So I do it every year.  And we eat the leftovers.  I carved a big pumpkin too and have some decorations on the new porch.  Our first year in the new neighborhood so I don't know how many to expect.  Will report tomorrow. Happy Halloween y'all.
