Halloween hangovers are no joke.  😂  Does anyone else think that trick or treating should always happen on the last Saturday of October? 🙋🏻‍♀️  I don't know about you, but Halloween festivities, wear me out.  And I don't even have small children that I have to wrestle into a costume, force feed dinner to or accompany on a nighttime walk around the neighborhood.😅  My only responsibilities on Halloween are to light the pumpkins and welcome all of the kids and adults that come to my door.  I recognize that it sounds ridiculous to say that Halloween wears me out and it's probably only something that my fellow introverts will understand. 🤷🏻‍♀️  It's exhausting but in the best kind of way.  🤣

It doesn't matter if you come to my house for Thanksgiving dinner, a birthday party or to borrow a pot - you better believe that you are going to leave with something sweet in your hand. 😂🍪  I just feel like everyone that visits my home, should be gifted some sugar, so naturally - Halloween is my jam.  All of the kids who walked up my sidewalk Monday night were given a piece of candy and the adult chaperones were handed freshly baked donuts. 🍩

When my kids were little, I was the parent in charge of accompanying them on their trick or treat journey around the neighborhood on Halloween.  Only parents who have done this will understand the level of anxiety that taking small children trick or treating will cause. 🤣  You are the reason that I try and always make a special treat for the adults on Halloween.  This year - the adults got donuts and I hope that it made your journey around my neighborhood with your sugar-high children - just a little more tolerable.
