Halloween candy

I was recently at the store buying a gigantic size bag of the good Halloween candy - you know Snickers, M&Ms, Almond Joys, because I do try to be the "cool house on the block who gives best candy." Then I thought about when folks used to give out the full-size Hershey bars and you would grab and go, squealing with delight. Remember how you used to try and go back to the house and hope the owners didn't recognize you on your second round?

Now we filter our kids candy, walk with them the entire night and trick or treat inside malls....every day I struggle with how times have changed and what does that mean to us, our kids and the world we are all going to grow old in.
