Boo-It-yourself

If you're a real neighbor pleaser....you can get in good with everybody and be the talk of the graveyard if you have a little folding table outside on the lawn with your own little coffee station for the neighbors. Maybe even hot chocolate for the kids. People will be just dying for a drink at about this time! Perhaps also keep a tub of those tiny party-sized waters handy.
You will be the toast of the town. Just keep your little adult lemonade stand away from the doorway...I set mine up at the end of the walk where all of the parents usually congregate while there little monsters head for the door! Who said treats are only for the kids?

Candy Alternatives for Halloween Trick-Or-Treat

In not so sweet news tonight:
Hey, I love candy on Halloween, but who said that treats must be candy? There are some cool alternatives...and NO I am not talking about handing out cards or pamphlets or even crayons. That's as bad as socks on Christmas morning. Here's some better ideas:
Play-Doh ---they now have treat sized containers. Now that's Ghoul!
Also hand out your piles of loose change...you know...the coins. I have drawers full of coins.
You can also hand out party favors like poppers and small toys from the party stores. The parents are going to love you....at least until they step on those jacks.

Random Halloween Candy Poisoning is Urban Legend, Myth

In breaking the widespread myth news tonight: We're going to call this story comfort food.
Did you know that most of the scares, and stories about Halloween poisoning are mostly myth--urban legend, modern folklore, urban myth? Only a few have ever happened, and we're terrified to report that they were inside cases done by relatives! Thanks to the main stream media--everyone is running scared on Halloween--many don't trick or treat anymore. It's your choice, but I encourage you to check this out at Snopes.com That site is Boorific! Whenever you have a question about a hoax, urban myth, or want to find out if something is hogwash--particularly those creepy emails my friends like to send around that scare me to death...then check it out at SNOPES.COM More people die of food poisoning from reputable restaurants every year than Halloween candy...well..that's not accurate...because typically NO ONE falls victim to poisoned Halloween candy. It's an urban myth. Read all about it here:  http://www.snopes.com/horrors/poison/halloween.asp

Dress Up or Pimp Out Your Pumpkin

http://www.BooItYourself.com

Costumes aren't just for people anymore....they're for pumpkins too! Why not use them as props in your pumpkin decorating? Add an eye patch, an earing, or a witch hat! Also "pimp out" the pumpkin with "bling." We've pretty much seen it all in carvings, so this will give new life to this age-old tradition. 

And another thing! TRY THIS!---Turn your pumpkin on its side and use the stem for a nose!!!
