For Hallowe'en, I'm half hoping we get all the kids so we have no candy left, and half hoping we get no kids so we have all the candy left

For the past few years, fewer and fewer kids have been showing up on our door step looking for candy. That doesn't stop Bunny from being opimistic and overbuying candy just in case scores of kids come by and get candy, least we get our house redecorated with eggs and toilet paper. Me, I've always been surprised when any kids show up these days on Hallowe'en. So it was that Bunny bought way more candy than I felt we needed.

We ended up with three kids showing up. In one group. At around 7:30 pm. At least we avoided carving a pumpkin this year, opting instead for my ceramic, pre-carved pumpkin.

The good news?

Bunny bought candy we like.

The bad news?

Bunny bought candy we like.

It won't go to waste, but it will go to our waist.
