4. I love candy corn. I know it is just corn syrup but I love it anyway. I like the pumpkins because
it doesn't take as many to get a mouthful.

2. I am proud to say NONE, but only because I procrastinate and haven't bought it yet.
Maybe I will just turn off the lights and go out for the evening.

5. Give out the no name crap first. With any luck you'll have a lot of Reeses and Kit Kats left over.
That is what I would do anyway if my wife weren't around to call me on it.

8. Ok then I would give the good stuff to the cute little kids and the crap to the teenagers who are
too old to be trick or treating anyway. You will still have some good stuff left over.

12. I'm sort of lucky
We live out in the woods, so get no trick or treaters. I suppose I would be sad about that if I ate a lot of candy, which I don't. We take the kids to a real neighborhood to T&T.

15. Once
last night while we were making goodie bags I sampled what we are handing out. I counting on having some left over since it's a weeknight they should give out early tonight. If they don't there's always the day after candy sale.

18. zero is the answer....
I am not a candy lover. But I have fought off my daughter from the bags of candy since she came home from school at noon. My son is like me... he doesn't like candy.
(I make exceptions for Jolly Ranchers and Gummy Bears.)

20. Just twice so far.
But then, I just got home with the candy. The kids haven't started showing up yet, and I probably bought more than I'll need, so I will dip into the bowl again. Soon.
