It was a remarkably quiet Halloween on my street. We had a quiet dinner of squash soup and warm brussels sprouts salad. Both adult children happened to join us for the meal. Not a single ghoul, zombie, or pumpkin cone darkened our brightly lit pumpkin adorned doorstep. I gave candy to both of my kids, but was very disappointed that no one came to call. Next tear we may need to send invitations. Booooooooo hoo!
Oh, no! No little kids? Maybe you need to move…
