OK, when is it time to quit. Emmie, you are central time and still holding out? SFZ? Is hubbie tired yet?

Hubby is back in his computer room. I’ve handled a few clumps—cutest thing so far was a baby lion being carried in his mommy’s arms.

The young Muslim couple across the way does not seem to be celebrating the holiday—kids aren’t in costume—but once they got the idea that this is a holiday in which the neighbors give candy to children they got in the swing of things, so I got them taken care of. (OK, I waved wildly and indicated that I had chocolate.) I’m not sure where they’re from, subcontinent somewhere I think.

I have to say that as I was loading them up with miniature chocolate bars, all I could think of was that jerk in Texas who says he doesn’t have to teach Muslims to shoot. Bet he doesn’t give them Halloween candy either.
