Our trick-or-treaters have been dwindling over the years. I have been winding up with LOTS of leftover candy which I eat (hey I don't want to waste it ). This year I just made up my mind not to participate and I put a note on the door "Sorry no candy - Have a happy halloween anyway." Normally by now I would have had a few knocks but this year there is nothing but sweet silence (no dogs warning me that we are being invaded by strangely dressed people.)
