Fiesta Friday #404

Happy Halloween, guys, in 2 days!

The thought of Halloween nearing used to send me into overdrive. Have the costumes for the kids been finalized? Did we buy enough candy for the trick-or-treaters? Who is going to drive the kids to their parties and who will hold the fort? On and on… Halloween was a lot of work!

Now that the kids have grown up, it gets easier. We don’t even have to open the door to the trick-or-treaters, courtesy of the pandemic. Last year we laid out packages of candy on a small table just outside the front door for them to help themselves. It worked so well we’ve decided to do it again this year.


I’ll be on the lookout for one particular future delinquent, however, who swiped several packages instead of one last year. But all the other kids were polite and took notice of the “Pick One” sign.

I am a little bit nostalgic, though, for the festivities surrounding Halloween. It used to be so exciting making special meals or treats for the kids. Here’s one I made a few years ago.

    I’m liking that FrankenHummus, and the Blood and Guts Cinnamon Rolls looks like something I need to try. 🙂 Thanks for hosting us once again. I brought by some Garlic Butter Shrimp this week. It’s a quick and easy meal for this busy time of year! 🙂

    Happy Halloween! I love the seasonal recipes, even if I didn’t get around to making something along those lines this year.

    I’m willing to co-host November 12? Assuming that works for you.

      Yes, Nov 12 works out perfectly! Thanks so much, Diann ?

      I, too, didn’t do a whole lot of seasonal recipes this time around but it’s the weekend and I’ve just harvested my butternut squash so… there will be seasonal stuff after all.

    Hi, Angie; My daughters are adults now, but when they were in grade school, their friends used to meet at our house, compare costumes and go trick or treating together; at the end, they would come back, compare and trade treats, and eat snacks. For the occasion, we decorated the house and had a Halloween themed spread of healthier-than-candy foodstuffs (mummy meatball skewers, jack o’ lantern cheese balls, monster veggies, and some juice “witches brew”) … those were the days! Thank you for hosting another great party; I am sharing #33 Vegan Red Aguachile and #34 Crazy Snacks for Halloween – Dorilocos and Tostilocos. Have an awesome Halloween!

      That’s exactly what my daughter and her friends used to do, too. They even had themed costume parties etc. They had so much fun! Now they’ve all grown up and gone to college, not so interested in Halloween anymore ?Your recipes sound intriguing!

    Thank you for hosting Angie!
    Halloween was never a part of our culture or tradition here in Australia.
    Until in recent years when commercialism brought it in.
    So hubby & I don’t have it as part of our year.
    Blessings,
    Jennifer

    You’re welcome, Jennifer! It’s my understanding that Halloween is now popular in many places. I guess the combination of costume + candy is just too appealing, especially to the young ones ?

      Yup, it makes things a lot easier for us. Especially this time around Halloween falls on Sunday and over here there’s always football on TV on Sundays so the husband is distracted. And I appreciate that I don’t have to watch Skye from bolting out of the door, getting all excited over the little kids in their costumes ?
