I AM going to do mine before reading yours, so I am not influenced.<br /><br />See: The unaccustomed sight of small clusters of people moving around the neighborhood in the dark....glow sticks here and there.<br /><br /><br />Hear: Little voices saying "Trick or Treat". <br /><br /><br />Taste: Homemade sugar cookies, decorated with frosting and sprinkles for the school party...my FAVORITE cookie. Candy corn again, which I don't like/never did but eat anyway. (Near occasion of sin?)<br /><br /><br />Touch: The texture of the goo inside the pumpkin as we clean it out to make a jack-o-lantern...goo mixed with slippery little seeds.<br /><br />Smell: The good smell is fall leaves, all damp and musty. The bad smell is the sickeningly sweet smell of candy - especially candy corn in large quantities. Another bad smell I remember was the small of the inside of a rubber mask. Ick. I may have tried one on a time or two, but never wore one that I can recall.Trying Againhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16397229079794765624noreply@blogger.com
