Virtual Trick-or-Treating
Oct. 31st, 2025 11:01 amHappy Halloween! Welcome to the seventeenth annual edition of virtual trick-or-treating.
Usually for virtual trick-or-treating, you get to knock or ring the bell by leaving a comment and I will give you a treat just for you. However, yesterday I fell on my morning walk by catching the edge of the asphalt on part of the street that doesn't have sidewalks and fractured a bone in my ankle. I'm in a boot and can move around, it was my left foot so I can still drive, and I had already planned to take today off so I don't have to go to work today, but I also don't feel up to doing a bunch of specific treats. So instead we're doing a virtual version of what I'm doing with candy at home. I'm leaving a handful of treats in the comments and you can enjoy whichever one(s) you want.
