Today brought the supermarket delivery which included three pumpkins and the last of the Trick or Treat sweets. So Youngest, Middlest and I made up bundles of treats to give away. We have about 80, all vegan/halal/gluten free. Each contains milk chocolate, white chocolate, something chewy, something chalky (like Love Hearts or Parma Violets), and something sucky like a boiled sweet or lollipop. We also have a few backup sacks of skittles bags, for when they run out, though only the red bags are vegan - the special dark ones for Halloween aren't.

Tomorrow the kids will carve the pumpkins and then on Thursday we're ready for the ritual. I really look forward to it. Hugely.
