I had a huge bowl of candy and thought there would surely be some left at the end of the night. But we started running out before 7 p.m. The Otis blames me for giving every kid a couple handfuls. I searched my pantry for anything snacky. I found a few pre-packaged crispy rice treats and a couple packages of fruit snacks. And some individually wrapped fortune cookies. Before long I had to start pilfering from The Urchins' candy stash. Fortunately they had dumped their bags after their first round of trick-or-treating. When I ran out at 7:30, I had no other choice than to be one of Those People. You know, the ones who turn off all their lights and hide and pretend nobody's home. That didn't stop one young teen from ringing the doorbell -- Mommy Dearest/BrodH20.

Question: Mommy Dearest seems the exception to the rule on the Halloween front. She had more trick-or-treaters than should could handle at her home. But most who reported in last night said they had far fewer than expected. Any other news out there re: Halloween Just Past -- from nos. of trick-or-treaters to possible vandalism?
