"fwick o fweet!"

, said Sadie. Also known as trick or treat ; )

I'm not a big fan of Halloween. I really never have been. I don't like anything spooky, I don't like being scared, I won't go into a haunted house or haunted corn maze, I've never in my life seen a scary or gory Halloween movie (and don't plan on it ever), and it just seems silly to go door to door to get tons of candy, most of which will end up uneaten or still in a cabinet in a bowl a year (yes, a year) later. So I've never gone all out on costumes for the kids, either. It's usually thrown together rather last minute (not like me at all, haha) Hmmm, does Sadie's costume look familiar???

BUT in spite of not being a fan, it was PRICELESS to see Sadie trick or treating. By the end she was saying, "Fwick o fweet" and her excitement was hilarious. Every time candy was dropped in her bag, she peeked inside and shouted, "Fweet." Her bag was pretty heavy by the time we were done, but she refused to have any help. She dragged her little bag most of the way and shouted no every time someone tried to help. I expected there to be a trail of candy but somehow the bag survived.

CORRECTION: Okay, so I am a little fascinated by "true" ghost stories and "true" haunted houses and things like that.
