There were many fewer trick-or-treaters last night than in previous years. I suppose it's because it was a Monday, but it would never occur to me to not let my kids trick-or-treat just because it was a week night. I mean, there were some, but we have a lot of leftover candy. I would have been more generous with it had I known.

I always get Goldfish because I've had some positive reactions to them in the past. This year one girl, after receiving said bag of Goldfish, turned to the others and said in a business-like tone, "We have Goldfish, people!".

It was cute.

The chocolate eyeballs were also very popular.
