This is my first experience in it being hot and muggy on Halloween. When I think of all the children bundled up in snowsuits in Minnesota during my daughter’s childhood Halloweens, I am just amazed at how different it is here. Not only for the weather, but I did not see one single Frankenstein, Dracula or Mummy. No axe murderers, no bloody, wounded or scarred faces. Instead, there were tons of princesses, various bugs, anime characters, and many unknown things.
We started with dinner before trick or treating:
Bloody Guts (macaroni in blue tinted cheese sauce and red food colouring).
Mummies. I used little sprinkle candies inserted for eyes and they oozed when baked…appropriately.
Then the witch helped the others get ready. I missed getting a photo of Joseph, he is an Australian character called the Sniper. He took off to hang out with his friends.
The bird was getting his face painted.
The flower got a lady bug painted on.
The anime character will be mad that I cannot remember the name, but he is this one:
There was no keeping the flower petals on, nope, not no way, not no how.
and off we went…..
Now there was this one house that went all out….it was fabulous!
There was a very long line in front of the house, everyone wanted to go here, it was so fun hearing the children…
