There was nothing better than pumpkin carving time!
Cutting the top off and digging your hand in there to scoop out the insides.
I used to get so excited carving a pumpkin!
And then, SO MANY trick or treaters!
It's not like that today unfortunately. A lot of years, we don't get ANY trick or treaters. It's too bad, I miss those days.

Unfortunately we don't receive many trick or treaters either. It's quite disappointing.

(4,806 posts)when we moved from Seattle to the outskirts Spokane, is the trick or treaters. 11 years ago 1 tricker in all that time. Love doing the house up and just... the whole thing.
Don't even bother now. My wife gets bummed more than I but hell we still buy some candy.

(12,125 posts)I generally get the snack sized individual wrapped rice krispie treats and the variety snack sized of chips.
I let what little amount of trick or treaters choose two items.
