I am disappointed.
See, now that I live in my own house instead of a flat for the first time ever on Halloween, and in a reasonably family-ish neighbourhood, too, I figured I might get kids round trick-or-treating. So I was ready! I had a huge bowl full of yummy treats. And I made sure I left the porch light on, and all. But no children came. :-(
I wanted to ward off evil spirits with propitiatory offerings, dammit!
I guess now I will just have to eat all those sweets myself...
