Every Halloween our street has an
amazing parade with lots of children
running around in an array of costumes.
There are lots of activities, but when
darkness falls the festivities end so that
the highly important task of trick-ortreating can begin. It is a busy night, but
I love to have people over for a quick bite
or a long stay. The kids count and trade
candy while the adults enjoy catching
up while having something warm and
satisfying. It is a night our entire family
looks forward to, and our friends know
that the soup and chili are on the stove
with the promise of a fun-filled evening
for all ages. The recipes can be made
ahead and reheated. All you need to do
is set out your sides, dress the salad and
cut the carrot cake—you can have just
as much Halloween fun as your guests!
