And now a funny Halloween story

I moved this from another thread:
And now a funny Halloween story-
years ago, BK (before kids) I often lost track of such important holidays. One year, while living in Homestead Fla, I spaced out Halloween. Was sitting in my living room-relaxing-when the door bell rings-there's three strangely dressed small people standing there yelling at me. "Ah shoot," I thought, as I rushed in to the kitchen-frantically looking for candy. There was none. However, I did have plenty of instant oatmeal and instant grits. Which I handed out
The following year-no small people came to my house.
Peace out y'all,
kathy

Funny how word gets around that there is a kill-joy in the hood.

I usually have a big bowl of ice cubes in my hand, held just high enough that they cannot see into it. Just toss a few in their bags, and they won't know the difference! Its free to!
Thats what they get for interrupting the football game

we dressed our rottweiller up in a superman cape one year and our neighbour gave her a meatball. Does that count?

LOL sadly before the years of digi-pics....sure wish we could have captured that image of her. That was the year our daughter went as a juice box. Tricky costume, she couldn't bend her knees, the poor kid, so we had to lift her up the stairs of every house. Chelsea (our rottie) was always our companion on our Hallowe'en outings. No one EVER messed with us!
p.s. Bethany, I just love your tag line. Took me a couple of reads but when I finally did get, it made me LOL

smoked fish!!!!
I love it!!!
A rot in a superman cape
and vietvet-you are already a hero in my house-my son Mikey LOVES your fish slapping picture-he could watch it for minutes on end-however, if you gave him a candy bar that size he would want you to adopt him-but mutant ninja mom would be a bit upset
A juice box
y'all crack me up...thanks...

Vig, fix what? Oh, Helloween instead of Halloween? That would be another thread entirely on why we didn't even do halloween for a couple of years. I really don't want to go there right now, energy level is falling...end of day....
my son wants to be a-you guessed it-ninja. So now we gotta have matching costumes-which he feels would embarass the snot out of him and scar him for life and he would never be able to look the other children in the eyes again. I said, "Okay, DAD can go with you, and I'll stay home and give out the instant grits and cream of wheat (they were on sale at the store )
What?! Sounds like a plan to me

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.
