Halloween

This year I'm making parcels of sweets for 100 kids. I think only half of them will be vegetarian/halal but last year's colour coding worked really well. And every year there's vegetarian or celiac or other dietary requirements kids who are DELIGHTED when they realise they can eat everything in the parcel.

Thanks for this.

It absolutely makes my night when a kid realises they can eat anything we give them. It's amazing.

I wish I could come over and help!

OMG we would have so much fun. We cut squares of tissue paper and lay them down to make an 8-pointed star, put the treats in the middle, and draw up the edges and secure with string/embroidery thread/whatever. Often lollipop sticks or long chews stick out the top but that's a bonus.
