So someone ( @UnkyGreggy ) on facebook made a wisecrack about me passing out cigarette butts when I ran out of candy for the kids since my pumpkin wasn't full.
I told him that's what all the green and orange freezer pops were for.
But I started worrying after that...what if I did run out?
I'd be fair game for all sorts of nasty tricks from kids that didn't get their treats.
So I went and bought more candy.
But I bought too much and it all wouldn't fit in the bucket and I just didn't know what to do.
So I ate it.
Problem solved.

Well you sure know what to do. Glad you did get more candy for the kids.

Quick thinking! Although, one might say that you buying more than enough candy was on purpose.

@JolietJake Do not waste the leftover candy, eat them. I do not know why I bought so much chocolate knowing that kids do not come for treats here.

The knock at our door came rather late... Youngest answers it, high on his own candy haul from knocking on doors.... All I hear is "you're the last ones, happy Halloween" and he empties all the remaining candy from our big plastic pumpkin into these guys' loot sacks!
And I didn't get to try the dark Skittles I'd bought...

I mean, what else could you do? We seldom get any trick or treaters any more out here in the country. We buy a little candy just in case, but now we have to eat it.
