May your Halloween be filled with many a 100 Grand minibar and Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup!
Happy Halloween!
What’s your favorite Halloween candy? What’s the worst thing you ever got from a neighbor while trick-or-treating?
(I got an apple once. I threw it in the lady’s yard. I mean, REALLY…an apple??? Sheesh.)

Here at Playgroups are no place for children, in honor of my TWO! YEAR! blogging anniversary and in honor of NOT participating in NaBloPoMo (you’re welcome!), November is going to be Reader Appreciation Month. I’ve got FANTASTIC giveaways lined up for you all! I’m so excited I can hardly keep from peeing my pants!










hoping the kiddo scores some kit kat & crunch bars
Woo hoo!! Congrats on two years! you go girlie!!
That picture is fabulous. I think that I would like some kit kat bars
and the kiddos, well they aren’t picky.

I’m hoping my kids get lots of Almond Joys. They’ll happily hand them over to Mom.
My kids are hoping for ‘kitty cat bars’ and Nestle Crunch and Mike and Ikes.

My kids get a mini bag of microwave popcorn every year from the same house. They LOVE it, and so do it. So cute.
That picture is just about one of the cutest Halloween photos I’ve ever seen!

The British don’t really do Halloween, so this expat family will be living vicariously through you.
It’s quite sad really. My son had so much fun trick-or-treating last year.
Please eat lots of Snickers for me.
GHD´s lastest post..From Two to Thirteen… Overnight
Favorite? Eh, most chocolate bars, candy corn, even that taffy stuff with the peanut butter in it!
Least favorite? I know there is some candy I hate but can’t think of any off the top of my head.
Suckiest treat ever? I can’t say I got any really horrid ones though my ex’s grandmother would give out pennies if she ran out of candy until we told her that kids wouldn’t appreciate it…
May your Halloween be Happy!

Great photo, by the way
GHD´s lastest post..From Two to Thirteen… Overnight
Mmmm, I love me some Snickers. I don’t remember getting anything really bad – but I was never a fan of hard candies.
I’m participating in NaBloPoMo for the first time and I have no idea how I’m going to do it. I can’t wait to see what you have in store for Reader Appreciation Month – that’s a great idea!
catnip´s lastest post..Happy Halloween!
That is such a great photo!
Two hours of trick or treating last night and NO 100 Grand bars!! I’m out of my mind! I may also be hopped up on Milky Way bars, but that’s a detail. I was counting on the 100 Grands!
foradifferentkindofgirl (fadkog)´s lastest post..ouija think was gonna happen?
Actually, I am a big fan of Wonka Bars ( chocolate and grahm cracker chunks ). The worst candy I got was either burned peanut brittle or that cheap foil wrapped candy that goes for 100/$1. Uggghhh, that’s crappy stuff.

mr. goodbars and butterfingers. oh and baby ruth. can’t leave off the chick o sticks.
i can get none of these here. which is okay, helps with the weight loss.
monica´s lastest post..haiku friday – no halloween
I’m going to admit this right now to all of your gazillion readers.
One year many moons ago my mother grabbed a bag of “candy” at the last minute for the trick or treaters. We went about our normal halloween escapades. A few days later I grabbed a piece of mom’s candy, thinking it was a Brachs hard candy. I stuck it in my mouth and it was the worst tasting thing I ever had. I checked the wrapper and it was cough drops. My mother had given out cough drops for trick or treat.
Jean@workingmomma247´s lastest post..Costume Close Up
@Jean NO!!!!! Now that is just too funny!!!! Ha!
LOVE 100 Grand bars!
We did trick or treat last night and I already stole snickers and Sugar Babies.
Add mini Milky Way bars to your two choices, and I’m in heaven. My favorite part of Halloween is taking all the kids’ candy and letting them just pick a dozen or so. All the more for me.
Love your idea of RAM. And happy anniversary of the blogging kind.
patois´s lastest post..Boo! I’ve Been Ghosted.
That is a beautiful picture… that that picture alone justifies the DSLR.
My favs are heath bars!
Amy´s lastest post..My princess
@Amy Thank you! It DOES justify the DSLR, doesn’t it! In fact, my husband has even begrudgingly agreed that it takes great photos…and he even said I was a pretty good photographer.
I don’t like candycorn! I’ve been loving that ridiculous song on Noggin!

uhhh… excuse me while I crawl out from under the rock in which I live, but what is NaBloPoMO?

@Jenny Henny
It’s National Blog Posting Month. You post everyday for 30 days. That’s it.
I did it last year, like zillions of others and I just can’t commit to posting everyday! Unless of course it’s to give good stuff away!
@Knot I’ve never heard of a Wonka Bar? It sounds really yummy.
Happy Blogoversary! I love that pic of your kids.
My favorite candy is Reese’s, hands down. This is the first thing I steal from my kids’ buckets.
all things BD´s lastest post..Car Keys and Pumpkin Interpretation
Favorite: Butterfingers (the boyz are all trained that they have to give theirs to Mommy)
Worst: dum dum pops
Guess what we’re giving out? Yep, dum dum pops.
Trenches of Mommyhood´s lastest post..Happy Halloween!
That photo? Is EXACTLY why you needed the fancy camera. PERFECT!
That is an amazing photo! Great capture.
The rich doctor in my neighborhood growing up would give out king sized Butterfingers. Too bad the dentist a few streets over gave out toothbrushes! LAME!
Megan´s lastest post..Happy Halloween!
Awww – that picture is priceless!
Favorite – Reese’s Peanut Butter cups. The Oldest is allergic to peanuts, so I’m just doing my motherly duty. Plus, I then get to eat them in my closet, all. by. myself.
Pure bliss.

that really is a priceless picture!!! i don’t have to worry about not getting good candy, because the giant 12 year old that is my husband bought every kind of candy ever made, pretending to have gotten it for the trick or treaters.
britt´s lastest post..sick and tired
ooo… candy!
here’s to hoping that they bring home lots of milky ways. i strongly dislike those.
and giveaways?? yippee! (i have one going on at my place…that your lil’ girl might like!! stop by!)
jen´s lastest post..happy halloween and my baby on a horse.
Just popping in to let you know how AWESOME that photo is. But, I am sure you already know that. WTG! Awesome capture.
OHmommy´s lastest post..In the end, they all got candy.
Who are you with that adorable picture???
Seriously cute!
Krista´s lastest post..Book: An Irishwoman’s Tale
My fave are Milky Ways cuz I love chocolate AND caramel. The worst thing I ever got was some religious pamphlet telling me I was going to burn in hell for participating in the satanic holiday of Halloween. Really who gives a little kid that on Halloween? Asshat.
@Megan That is definitely lame to give out toothbrushes!
What an AWESOME photo!!
I love 100 grands, they are the BEST!
Worst thing ever that the kids received were EXPIRED Halloween coupons (like the ones for Burger King and Wendy’s) Worse yet, I didn’t realize they were expired til I took them up there to get something and left my purse at home. They were so upset and I had to scrounge around in the van for some change to get them the frosty’s.
Heather~Domestic Extraordinaire´s lastest post..Thankful Thursday
The one year the neighbor not only handed out the religious tracts (which…whatEVER), but also dumped in a handful of SHELLED PEANUTS. Hubs and I looked at each other like, “Are ya kidding me?” Then a friend pointed out the REALLY grave error with that, “What about the kids with peanut allergies?”
My favorite: snickers bars and twizzlers. Hubs: peanut butter cups. Somehow those “mysteriously” disappear out of the buckets by Nov. 1. Spooky!
Carrie´s lastest post..Random H
happy anniversary!!! Great photo by the way.
My favorite Halloween treat was always popcorn balls. My neighbor growing up, who was like a third grandma to me, always made them for the kids in our ‘hood and her grandchildren. We would go to her house as our last trick or treat stop and have popcorn balls. Aw, I just got all nostalgic!
I’m going to try to do NaBloPoMo this year. I may be coming to your comments section to curse at myself.
Jen L.´s lastest post..Happy Halloween!
i love that pic.
jenica´s lastest post..upside down and backwards
Anything Reese’s is my favorite. There was always a favorite house in our neighborhood growing up that made popcorn balls every year. WE’d change our costumes tons of times just to get extras!
Worst candy….those little candies that come in those paper wrappers that are black and orange…what the heck are those things anyways? Gross.
@Beth Oh those candies are GROSS. I even hate the feel of their waxy paper on my fingers. Those seriously disgust me.
I like the leftovers nobody likes. . .Tootsie Rolls, Dots, and candy corn. YUM!
Sabrina´s lastest post..Big News
great pic!
my fave candy is snickers and take 5s.
but mary janes are so traditionally halloween for me growing up.
can’t think of a worse thing i’d ever gotten… but i’m not a fan of anything w/ coconut.
however, littlebean is not quite 4mos old, so i guess i won’t get the good stash for another 2 years.
hope nobody comes tonight so i can keep all my snickers!
mpotter´s lastest post..note to self
Delurking just to say that I love the photo!
Oh, and on Monday I had my hair done at an Aveda salon for the first time, at your recommendation in a post awhile back. They asked how I heard about them, and I told them a friend in Indiana! (that’s where you were then!)
ragtopday´s lastest post..Six Minute Dating in Sixteen Paragraphs!
Aren’t 100 Grand bars the best? I like those and Snickers best. And I like Mallowcreme Pumpkins, but they’re too rich to have too much at one time.
LOVE the picture. You are getting better & better at that camera. Oh, and my all time favorite is Reeces Cups.
Heidi´s lastest post..Is it cold down there?
Awesome shot! I have gotten several apples in my many Halloweens…and like some others, I have also gotten toothbrushes. But I also used to get a little airplane made out of candy (lifesavers, gum, and who knows what else) that was always my favorite treat — they were all hand made by my aunt’s neighbor, and were SO COOL!
Maggie´s lastest post..Theme Thursday – Create
No kids or trick or treaters = staying in with girlfriends with a (ok a FEW) nice bottle of wine & yummy “hors” from Trader Joe’s…
We used to get apples from the cute old couple next door to us…but they also had an antique cash register in their kitchen, and we’d get to make it ding & open the drawer, and they gave us pennies with our apples. Actually, that kinda sucks, huh? They meant well though…
Also, a few years we trick or treated at our orthodontist’s house (happened to be a neighbor)…he used to give out toothbrushes…
CUTE! Photo.
My favourite Candy is Smarties. And Coffee Crisp…both of which are only Canadian, eh?
Angella´s lastest post..The Back Roads To Kelowna
BEST PICTURE EVER!! I hope you are framing this one.
My favorite are Reese’s peanut butter cups.
The worst treat I ever received as a kid was a dime. And it was from my great aunt.
Heather, Queen of Shake Shake´s lastest post..Random Acts of Marital Unkindness
That picture is ADORABLE!! I just love it.
As for the candy I hope to steal.. Mallowmars! But nobody gives those out anymore. Thank God, my booties doesn’t need any Mallowmars.
Secret Agent Mama´s lastest post..Halloween Memories
Holy crap, do they still sell $100,000 bars?
And as long as you keep the pee restricted to the vicinity of your pants and keep them away from the prizes, then we will all look forward to your giveaways!
