12.8 lbs of candy

This is my Tigger, Witch, and Cowboy before the Trick-or-Treating. We have had a busy Halloween so far, so they're looking a little suboptimal. But a photo, nevertheless!
This is how greed and gluttony pays off! The weather was lovely, and the kids were so excited to trick-or-treat. Tyler made it TWO hours and Rachel for two and a half. It was fun to watch them run from door to door. The kids are in bed now, so I'm not sure if I should hide half of it while they're sleeping, or just gorge myself.

Wow, that's a lot of candy. Just the thought of gorging on all of that gives me a tummy ache! (I did steal one of Chick's Milky Way Midnight bars, though!!)

For years I would go through the kids' candy and pull out all of the mini candy bars. Then I would put them in gallon-sized ziploc bags and freeze them. Since it was chocolate, there was no harm done, and the kids could have Halloween candy for MONTHS! (And I didn't have to deal with all those pesky wrappers all at once.) ;)
