I think my costume would be Charlie Chan.
My fav when I was a kid was candy apples and shelled peanuts. Of course today they are a no no, so today my fav candy are M&Ms. Love those little candy covered chocolates
Have fun with the kids Ginger.
Jack

Good choice Jack,,,I love candy apples too,,,except I have two bridges,,,not going to go there,but would love to have one....yummy.........

As a person in a life-long weight battle, I am determined to find a costume that will enable me to disguise myself as a thin person! Maybe I will wear it everyday...

As for candy, anything CHOCOLATE! (but real chocolate, not that "chocolate flavored" junk!)

Have you seen those mirrors,,,you see yourslef as a size 8,,,,all the time.....if I find one I will get one for the both of us,,,remember to have cider and donuts.....

Ginger, if you find one of those mirrors, I will be happy to pay you for it! Worth every penny! And then we can eat all the cider and doughnuts we want without the guilt trip.

I said
Ken and Barbie (lol)

he said
Batman and Catwomen (lol)

I will take peanut m & m's - blaine will have to fight me for the bag of goodies.

Well....I like it.....either one is a good choice....

A few years back, my wife and I went to a company Halloween Party dressed as Raggedy Ann and Andy.
Our oldest daughter babysat that night for a co-worker that took lots of pictures. When she shared them with her 4 year old she said, "That's Shana's Mom and Dad."
The child's eyes grew wide as she said, "Shana's Mom and Dad are Raggedy Ann and Andy?" I wish I could find those pictures.

Mike
a.k.a.
Raggedy Andy

Hey Mike,
And I will bet you were prize winners as well,,,
they are always two most popular characters,,,pretending is fun.takes your mind of the everyday,even if for a little while....

Thanks,Mike
for sharing

Mike,
Candy,whats your choice?

I would love to be Cinderalla with glass slippers, tiara, and beautiful gown. My Prince Charming would be George Clooney (well he is my 2nd choice since I have found Prince Charming in my husband).
