We are down a winding laneway so no kids have ever come here except ones we know. So now we have a few treats which I think is a good thing. Very cute embroidery saying and I like how you combined it with your Halloween stash.

So I sent the extra bag over for the 4 grandchildren to enjoy. I need to embroider another one of those chocolate ones before Christmas.

We usually have between 80 and 100 trick or treaters. I've been amazed by how many people outside the US were following the election with baited breath. Yes, we can all breathe easier, but I'm waiting for the other shoe to fall, as I don't think Trump will go quietly. <br />Pat<br /><br />MissPathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06807348837446241284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-14219080451453052152020-11-08T09:42:51.335-05:002020-11-08T09:42:51.335-05:00I forgot the Halloween candy this year so it was a...I forgot the Halloween candy this year so it was a good job no one rang the doorbell.

We put a six foot table blocking our front gate and used the BBQ tongs to place the baggies into the candy bags. This was very different from the last 7 years where my son and his friends would build a haunted maze on the front lawn and driveway. Last year we had almost 400 kids. I was glad that everyone we saw (adults and kids) were wearing masks.<br /><br />I did not get any stitching done last night, I was totally riveted to the TV and the speeches. My hope for the future is for a more unified country.<br /><br />I love your stitching and am so inspired by this community you have created.stitchingirlblog.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01667875464594937456noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34488264.post-84291615993599778952020-11-08T09:02:02.721-05:002020-11-08T09:02:02.721-05:00My eye went straight to your circle of chocolate L...My eye went straight to your circle of chocolate LOL.

There were some little bags of potato chips leftover which are gone now. We have also been glued to the news this week and watched the speeches last night. An evening of celebration for everyone, especially women! Enjoy your chocolate and stitching today. Somehow, a chocolate stain on your stitchery might be very appropriate.

We are taking the socially distancing thing to extremes as my husband and I take care of our quite elderly moms. Your embroidery is looking wonderful.

When we had children at home, I'd buy a bag of candy, make my children wait until 8:00 (just in case someone showed up) then they could divide the candy amongst themselves to eat over the next week. I was pretty excited about the election results myself last evening. Of course now we have to listen to rants about cheating and other disputes, such an embarrassment. Happy stitching!Gretchen Weaverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11163051875559827310noreply@blogger.com
