Real pumpkins…I would love to get my hands on those so I can try making Pumpkin pies. Where can we purchase them here in Manila? I heard you can get them in the Seedling bank?

I had a “second childhood” when I was in the 6th grade or so and would go trick or treating with friends … and we’d play poker and blackjack in the evening with our candies as currency. =)

A friend of mine lets her 5 year old daughter go trick or treating in all her neighboring villages here in Laguna. At the end of the day, they go to the depressed area and give the goodies away. I say, that is the best education you could give your child.

Being a dental professional, it breaks my heart to see kids with multiple caries especially those under the age of 4. I’ve opted to dress up as the tooth fairy and pass out toothbrushes instead. To my surprise, the kids really liked it and the parents were thrilled to boot!

It’s funny how some kids here in the US don’t just bring small baskets or bags when they go treat or treating but sacks or even pillow cases for their loot! I heard they can really fill up them up too. Sad thing is the enormous amount of candy may end up in the trash but it’s a much anticipated event and what’s important is for the kids to have fun! Thanks & happy Halloween to all.

Be extra careful with candies made in Mexico. They have lead content. Here in our school district,we are given warnings especially during this time of the year.

Happy trick or treating to all!! those paws-shape mallows are soo cute, i remember those jellos, those are my faves..i would love to receive a bag of treats from MM.

On the other hand, we have to be smart when buying and when opening the treats at the end of the night as well. It’s been a habit of mine to check all the candies first before letting her eat some…I’d empty the bag on the table first, disregarding any candy that’s already been open (accidentally), it’s a good thing that she doesn’t suffer from any allergies compare to other kids with severe peanut allergies… I’m excited tonight, my sister bought a fog machine, so we’ll see if it’s a hit or not! heheh

My daughter years ago had banned candies on her house as give way for the trick’o treaters, and she made caramel apples instead. She made 2 doz. and she thought they were enough. Maliit lang kasi ang neighborhood niya at pulos matatanda pa ang mga nakatira. Well she was wrong, news spread around and teenagers started knocking on her door. She immediately made some caramelized bananas instead and they were also a hit.

I just bought large packs of candies and I did not get to check if they from China. Siguro ok, kasi kumain na ako ng 2 package of MM’s eh.
