Have Enough Halloween Candy?

Last year was my first married Halloween. We were in a new house, and I ran out of candy by about 8 p.m., and there were still some trick or treaters knocking on our door. I ended up giving them granola bars. Yes, I was that lady!

That's why this year I already bought the snack-size chocolate bars and two extra bags of individually wrapped twizzlers. My advice is to get out there and stock up on those Halloween treats right now. You don't want to be the granola lady. Trust me.

While you're at it, put a pretty jack o lantern in the window or a paper pumpkin on your door. Dress up the house and make it festive and inviting to the trick or treaters. Then, be sure to save some time for you and your husband or wife to enjoy Halloween yourselves.
