Random Worst:
When Halloween is on a Sunday.

Random Best:
When you come up with an awesome and original Halloween costume - like a cat or a witch.
When you realize that as an adult you can buy a whole bag of Reese's Peanut Butter cups and eat as many as you want (NOT that I would ever do that...)
When you're a kid and you get to use Halloween as an excuse to wear make up.
When your neighbors decorate their porch like this:

Love Halloween! My kids discovered the Joy of peanut butter cups this year which means fewer for me. :(
They loved the Great Pumpkin movie. Lots of giggles. Here's hoping they don't just get rocks in their bags tonight! C'mon peanut butter cups!!!
I always thought that hard candy and gum and apples - yes we got apples from some neighbors and this was the 50's and 60's - were duds. I think I even got a wrapped toothbrush once! But there was a family the next block down that gave out saran wrapped popcorn balls and I loved that!
Oooh, I really hope I get at least one ghost sighting!! I also hope that I don't end up eating all of the candy we're supposed to be giving out before the kids get here. It's SO hard to walk by it and not devour every piece!!
I feel seriously passionate about Reeses' PB Cups this Halloween, so I'm happy to see that at the top of the treats list!!! Hope it's a fun evening! :)
Long time blurker here to weigh in on a great American holiday . . .
The Changeling . . . my husband and I are the only people I know who have seen this movie. We saw it in the theater shortly after it came out. The only movie in which I have ever screamed . . . loudly.
I also love Reese's and Almond Joy (or its dark relative Mounds). But the best delight I ever got on the trick-or-treating trail was a huge caramel apple . . . every year at a neighbor's home. Of course, this was a 1,000 years ago and in Washington, but the memory lives on.
What's the difference between a Milky Way and a three musketeers?
Worst Halloween treat; anything non-candy (pennies, pencils, tooth brushes, etc.)
