Though most people here have never heard of Halloween, our community didn’t pull any stops in celebrating the sugar-loaded holiday. Thanks to several packages from friends and family, we had an entire Halloween Celebration Kit, full with candy, Halloween stickers, small pumpkins and gourds, Halloween decorations, Halloween cookie cutters, and more! We even picked up some locally available supplies to make cookie icing and popcorn balls. The night culminated with each of us taking five minutes to throw together a costume, meet at our front door, and go trick-or-treating. (I dressed up as our night watchman, who almost always wears a muscle-tee. tucked into his slacks, with heavy shoes, and a HUGE flashlight.) Since I’m a pretty big sugar addict, and my sugar intake hasn’t dropped too low, I ended up being the only one who didn’t get sick off of the cupcakes, cookies, icing, and sugar we all ingested. It was just like we were little kids again!
