Happy November. We are running out of year with over 300 days behind us. Last night was an interesting night of ghouls, goblins, witches, princesses, dinosaurs, skeletons, animals and ones I'm not sure of. We had 125 bars but we only had 28 people come to the door. The most we ever had was 42 so I started giving 2 bars per visitor, by the end of the night I was giving 4 per visit, I still have 60 bars left. I'm a bit of a chocoholic but it will take me 2 days to eat all those. Our neighbor across the street pulled a first ever on us when she came to the door with a treat for us, two pieces of a pumpkin chocolate swirl cake. She called it a reverse Halloween. It was new to us, I had eaten too many bars to have it last night, I'll have it for breakfast today. I'm on my way to walk with Heather.

๐♀️Hi Edward,
Thanks for getting November off to a happy start with your story of Halloween fun๐. You saw a real variety of costumes worn by the 28 trick-or-treaters who came to your door๐ก. You were very generous in giving them more than the usual share of sweets, too๐ซ๐ฅ๐ฌ. Nice work! Consider the pumpkin chocolate swirl cake your reward๐ฐ. That’s my kind of breakfast☕️. Lucky you. Enjoy!๐
๐ Thanks for the good laugh this morning, Ed. It's always good for the soul! We had 21 and I have a bunch of chocolate left over too (and I love chocolate too). BJ would tell you that, if you have that cake for breakfast, you may call it a pumpkin chocolate swirl muffin! I think I'll go now and have Caramilk muffin! ๐คฃ

Hi,
Halloween has changed for me over the years. Our numbers have gone down year by year. I had only 65 little munchkins this year and I had treats for 100, so we have some goodies left over as well. And to be honest, we ate quite a few halloween treats before Halloween!
How was your Caramilk muffin Chris? LOL
Hugs,
ME
xoxoxoxo
Yummy, M E!! Have you had any interesting muffins for breakfast yet? How about you, BJ? I think a lemon pie muffin would be a great breakfast!๐
Hi ,
Yes I have had a delicious matrimonial cake muffin. It's perfect for breakfast, with a strong cup of coffee. ☕️
Hahaha
Sister Vic also loves a matrimonial cake muffin for breakfast !

Happy Un-Halloween from your better-late-than never family member.
I had 35 munchkins at my door. And for breakfast the next morning I had a spider muffin, courtesy Mona. Beneath the spider was a chocolate muffin.
Happy November to all. We are experiencing a glorious fall with a high of 17 today and a promise of 23 degrees on the weekend.
Love, BJ
