So, Halloween is over and now I just have to deal with the repercussions of many a sugar high in an already rambunctious toddler. I am very thankful for my morning cappuccino, which helps to keep my energy levels on par with my kids! I've just started using Italian espresso (LavAzza) and it makes all the difference.
Speaking of Halloween. I just let Frankie pick one piece of Halloween candy to eat. He chose a silver dollar size piece of chocolate covered in foil. He bit a piece off, foil and all, before I had a chance to unwrap it. Halloween is just too exciting! Still.
Lastly, I made french onion soup last night and for the very first time was pleased with the results! Very exciting, particularly because the ingredient list is so simple. Not to mention the fact that I can freeze what we didn't eat and have another meal already made and ready to go.
Here are some photos from Halloween. We trick or treated at Mike and Abby's. The other kids are Irene Shipley's and her brothers.
Peter, the gentle lion.

This was the trick or treating crew, minus parents and Pete and Reenie, before we walked out the door.
