Happy Halloween

To celebrate I have been eating my own version of a soulcake. Well OK just a shortbread biscuit...

As a horror pumpkin and its crazy cult following is now burying America, we can all relate to the un-dead and similar foretold atrocities.
As soul-less Buddhists we may be involved in a stranger mythology:

Here in the Netherlands Halloween is also becoming quite popular. It’s common to have a little light by the doorway to show that you are participating if you have candy ready and so on.
I noticed this was released, in a little congruence for fans of scary fiction…
Me? I’ll be working today. Got a second job to bring in money during these scary times. 💀
It’s at a kids consignment store, so I’m excited to see all the trick or treaters come in. Selling costumes the last couple of days has been super fun! Eh…I haven’t making much
Sweets or treats (trying to lower my sugar intake)…but perhaps I’ll stop on the way home and grab a day old donut bag from the baker. 🎃😄.
And of course tonight,,,
A Scooby Doo Mystery marathon!! 👻
Lobster, those treats look like they border on halfway-healthy. Perhaps what should be in my intake. But it’s Halloween, so I’m going straight for the high-intensity sweets! Reeses come in a dark chocolate version now, probably would go well with vodka. As Jimmy Buffet assures us, “Come Monday, it’ll be alright.”
Very little of the "goodies" of Holloween are anything healthy.
.....And the dentists are laughing all the way to the bank ...
