First issue: My staff and I all dress up for Halloween even during the work day so Friday, October 31, we will be here in from 730 am till 12 noon so if you want to see Elvis come back to life in the form of a middle aged doctor, please feel free to stop by.
Did you buy the candy yet to give out to your trick or treaters? If so, my question to you is: "WHY?" Keeping food items of temptation around the house for prolonged periods of time is not a great idea. If it is in the house and we feel stressed out, we will feel an urge to open one of the bags and indulge in the very food sources that perhaps caused the weight problem to begin with.
Also, are there perhaps "healthier" snacks to purchase to give out on Halloween? With the childhood obesity rate climbing to alarming proportions and the life expectancy of the younger generation being less than their parents, our decision to give out less caloric sources of "treats" is a very socially-conscious decision.
As opposed to looking at high-caloric, low nutritious food sources as "treats and goodies" but rather as saboteurs and killers will hopefully help you avoid purchasing them and giving them out.

Speaking of "trick or treat"..Hubby and I enjoyed our walk at Burke Lake yesterday. We had marked our calendar for Oct. 19th but never heard anything more about an organized walk. We decided to go any way. We were ready to walk with or without a group and enjoyed the beautiful scenery and the brisk air. It might have been a trick that no one else was there but we did have the treat in the end.
My solution for halloween candy this year is to not buy it and get out of the house!
