halloween count

our first halloween in missouri and we wondered what the candy output would be like in my parents' neighborhood. well, here's the trick-or-treater count for the evening:

• 1 fairy princess
  
• 1 dorothy from the "wizard of oz"
  
• 1 baseball player
  
• 1 policeman
  
• 1 devil
  
• 3 "geeks" (at least that's what they claimed they were, but no real costumes but offered a corny joke instead)
  
• 1 cat
  
• 1 witch

= for a grand total of 10

not much, but a good selection and certainly better than the south end where all we got was a handful of teens with paper bags on their heads.
