Trick or Treat! What's in your pillowcase??

Every year at Halloween time it was my GOAL to get my pillowcase filled to the TOP. Now, if you've ever actually filled a pillowcase to the TOP you'd know that this is quite an ambitious (and unhealthy) goal. When I was younger we'd have to go through to make sure none of the candy was opened and some crazy person wasn't out trying to "poison the children." The last time I pulled off trick or treating I was 15......and almost every time I rang the doorbell, I was told, "you're too old for this." Such a sad year. So, if you were going to go trick or treating again, WHAT WOULD YOU WANT TO FIND IN YOUR PILLOWCASE??? Now that you're an adult would you wish for something other than a Butterfinger? Say, a can of chicken noodle soup?? Whatever. You tell me.

Not that I’m a hater when it comes to Reese’s, it’s just that when you’re raiding your little sister’s candy collection and you have to dig through six feet of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups in order to find a mini Twizzler, it’s a little irritating. And simply, not that creative. Reese’s? Is that really the best you could come up with?

Instead of a Caramel Apple......

(which to be clear, I’m pretty sure have NEVER been handed out at a door, unless it was in a movie or the 1950’s)

I'd like a Jell-O SHOT!!!!

Especially when they come in a syringe….that gives it that EXTRA creepy factor. If you’re a parent with a kid, something tells me you’ll need a few shots after trying to get your kids to bed after downing a pound of sugar.

Swedish Fish are are SERIOUSLY underrated candy. They also happen to be one of my favorites. So when I noticed the tiny packages of them in the grocery store for Halloween, I almost did a hitch kick, I was that excited. The problem is, no one ever BUYS them?!? Am I the only person who loves Swedish Fish??

FOR THE ADULTS:

We could always use more of these.

I’d venture to say that around the holiday season the amount of people having sex goes up, quite a bit. People are lonely, booze is flowing freely, inhibitions are down….not to mention the outfits that are skipping around on Halloween are foreplay in themselves. So, if we could walk up to a door and grab a handful (or two) or condoms, wouldn’t that be lovely? Keep it safe kids, keep it safe.

Even though it's a kid food.....

I'd like fill my pantry with more of THESE.

Candy is nice and all, but really I can’t LIVE on candy. However, I could live on Mac and Cheese. People could even hand out the mini versions- Easy Mac. I’d also be ok with canned goods and twinkies.

Grown-Up Chocolate

To hell with those mini Hershey’s bars; I want some REAL chocolate this Halloween. I’m talking at least 60% cacao— none of that 10% crap.
