Halloween Treats

We had another super Halloween this year, I always enjoy this holiday because it kicks off the official holiday season for me.  The kids wore some interesting costumes...we had an angel and Darth Vader.  Trick-or-treating can be more of a trick than a treat for parents of vegan children, though.  We have played around with different ideas in the past, but this year was the best so far.  That's why I want to share it with you!  We did the traditional door-to-door candy collecting, but immediately afterward we went to my parents house.  Everyone, including the friend we were trick-or-treating with, dumped out their bags and we sorted candy right away!  My guys gave up ALL their chocolate and other non-vegan things and then traded them for candy they could eat.  This was great, and everybody got plenty of sweets!  Our favorites are Smarties, Nerds, and Jolly Ranchers!  Hope yours was great, too :)
