Healthier Halloween

I am getting a late start to work today. Considering I worked both of my days off, I feel I deserve it. Halloween was all messed up. I decided to stay at my house and pass out treats with my kid. But, if you happened to stop by hoping for candy, you didn't really get any. I bought granola bars, fruit roll-ups, and mini peanut butter crackers. It's great. I found these Halloween treat bags on the candy aisle. I opted for a little healthier versions of candy. It turned out great. I bought 22 bags. That's right, 22 bags. We went through half. The best part about having leftover treats is that it's not candy. I have leftover snacks for the kid to have when he gets home from school. How cool is that?

Well, I need to get ready for work. Sorry I didn't post yesterday. It was t.v. night and I had to get caught up. Have an awesome day!

Glad you had a good Halloween. I should be ashamed and passed out Reese's peanut butter cups. I ate quite a few as well with that being my favorite candy. Don't work too hard and I miss you. I responded to you comment on my blog about Dan. I still see him riding around in that beat up old Toyota truck of his. Take care gentle friend!

You have a good weekend.

I would probably eat all the leftover bags of snacks in about a week. I love to pig out.
