I don’t know what trick-or-treating will look like tomorrow – if we will see 100+ kids like we normally do, or a significantly reduced number of trick-or-treaters. We’ll just have to find out, won’t we?
I am prepared, or as prepared as anyone can be. I’ve decorated the front of the house, trying to maintain the spirit of Halloween, though not as much as in previous years. The husband, with the help of the daughter, put together little baggies filled with goodies.
We will lay them out on a small table right outside the front door, so each trick-or-treater can easily pick one without having to reach into a container with their hands. Minimal contamination that way.
In the house, I’m going to try to keep things healthy. A crudité platter will be on offer, along with hummus. And maybe even some healthy sweets.
And if time permits, I may even throw in a not-so-healthy-treat.
Have a great Halloween tomorrow, Fiesta Friends!
Now it’s time for features!
“These are so, so cute!! I just love the piping work on these little cakes.” — Angie
“Joanna has showcased this naturally creamy soup – so deliciously warming and great for Autumn!” — Laurena
“Omigosh, don’t even get me started on the Baileys. I seem to be collecting different flavors every time I step into a liquor store. This gorgeous cheesecake has got to be one of the best ways to use up some of it.” — Angie
“I’ve been meaning to try my hand at cooking lotus roots. I do see fresh ones at the Asian market I frequent. This recipe will serve as my gateway to the world of lotus roots – it sounds to intriguingly delicious!” — Angie

I so love the idea of healthy Halloween! And how beautiful too – Strawberry Ghosts and Apple Ghouls are just perfect 🙂
It will be different this year, but maybe some of those differences can mark a positive shift; healthy Halloween sounds like a ‘keeper’ to me!
Enjoy it! x
Angie says
I’m with you on healthy Halloween, though I’m sure the kids will resist. Heck, even the husband tried to reason why we should stockpile on candy since it’s usually on sale at this time. Can you believe that? ??
Dee |Grammy's Grid says
Thanks so much for hosting! I’m linking up with WOULD YOU RATHER See Trump or Biden Win the Election?
Angie says
Trump or Biden? Is there even a question at this time ?? Thanks for linking up, Dee.
Irene says
Famous last words from 2016 … I am not a US citizen, but I am hoping that everyone votes and the outcome is peaceful.
Angie says
Hear, hear!
Dee |Grammy's Grid says
Not for me, Angie!! You’re welcome, thanks again for hosting!

It’s not Trump or Biden. I’ve seen enough Biden ‘gaffes’ on you tube to understand that it’s Trump or Harris.

Halloween food always makes me smile… the colours and shapes and always the eyes!
Thank you for hosting… and thank you for featuring my Baileys Cheesecake too xx
Angie says
Halloween food is fun, isn’t it? And you’re welcome. I love anything with Baileys.
Irene says
Hi, Angie; those healthy Halloween treats are adorable! Thank you for hosting another great FF party; I am sharing #25 about huauzontle, a Mexican pseudo-grain related to amaranth and quinoa. Have an awesome Halloween!
Angie says
Thanks and you’re welcome! I’m so intrigued by huauzontle. Can’t wait to read about it!
Shailaja says
Wonderful halloween roundup!

Loving those halloween fruit ideas – fun and healthy! Thanks for hosting! I brought by some Sugared Cranberries. Hope you enjoy. 🙂
Angie says
Thanks, CJ! I’ve been meaning to try sugared cranberries, just haven’t gotten around to doing it. Will do as soon as I buy my cranberries; thanks for the reminder.
Zeba@Food For The Soul says
So happy to see my curious lotus root of the featured list. Shows the love for unique foods. Thank you ? let’s all vote and have our voices heard for this beautiful country
Angie says
You’re welcome. I went straight to the Asian market after work today (mind you, it’s a half hour drive) to look for lotus roots. They didn’t have any, bummer. Wish I had frozen the ones I bought a few weeks ago. They ended up the the trash can instead ? Oh well, there’s always next time. Right now though, it’s time to vote! I already did, actually. It feels great knowing I’ve done my civic duty.
zeba says
bummer 🙁
Tamy says
GREAT party as always – LOVE the features. Thank you for the inspiring ideas and recipes. I brought my FISHY CHICKEN STIR FRY, LEMON SHRIMP SPAGHETTI and BANANA JAM to the party. Have a WONDERFUL week.
Angie says
Banana jam? This I’ve got to see, so interesting. Thanks so much, Tamy!
Joanna says
Thank you so much for featuring my Leek and Potato Soup even through it is not really Halloween themed! I love the Rice Krispie monsters and it is great to see some healthy Halloween treats too.
Angie says
You’re welcome and thank you. The soup sounds delicious, and perfect for this time of year.
Helen at the Lazy Gastronome says
