A HALLOWEEN GUIDE from a Mom who's been there--
Start your day with the traditional holiday themed pancakes.
Wear ORANGE. (In Dodge City an orange bandana is worth extra points.)
Watch a horror film, or SKIN SOMETHING ALIVE. Because I am really into this, I skinned BABY carrots. 
Get your treats ready. If you get 14 or less trick or treaters, go for the full size bars. Do not give anything remotely healthy. Trust me, there will be no health conscious children ringing your doorbell. 
Carve your Jack-0-Lantern. Turn off your porch light long enough to get a spooky picture.
SMILE!
Leave your porch light on as long as possible and hand out as much candy as possible. Do not begrudge candy to tall children with pillowcases. What did you buy the candy for if not to give it away?
Eat any leftovers as soon as possible. You don't want it hanging around tempting you tomorrow, do you?
Encourage your children to eat their candy as fast as possible. No use dragging this on for days. If they have more candy than they can eat in a day, they have too much candy. I doubt this is really the case.
There you have it. All the essentials. What to eat, what to wear, what to do. Glad to be of service.
