Happy Halloween!


Yesterday was Halloween. It’s not a very big deal in Australia yet, but it seems that people are slowly starting to adopt it. (Although they’re a little confused on the details of what you’re supposed to do) I got asked a lot of questions:
Do you give the kids candy when they come to your door, or let them reach in and take it?
How late are they supposed to stay out?
How do you carve a pumpkin? The pumpkins over here are more like squash, so... you can’t really.
So far they’re treating it like a holiday for kids, with a big emphasis on trick-or-treating, no costume parties for grown ups the Saturday before, no gory movies, etc. I stole a few of my favorite brands out of the basket intended for the trick or treaters: Boost, Aero, Dream, and Cherry Ripe. Sadly no Reeses or Twix to be found!
