Halloween must
necessarily begin with the ritualistic
disemboweling of the pumpkin. We live in a fairly sheltered, westernized, housing community, but a few of the locals cast side-long glances at us and our blatant waste of a natural resource--they eat them, we use them for decoration.

These three Korean kids get the candy concept, but not the costume part.

A Canadian witch, an Uzbek-American witch, and Paulina (don't know where she's from).

A Dutch-American family hosted an afternoon Halloween party the next day. Quite fun.

Because Halloween comes in the wake of the annual apple harvest, caramel or candy apples (known as toffee apples outside North America) are a common Halloween treat made by rolling whole apples in a sticky sugar syrup, sometimes followed by rolling them in nuts. Sorry. I couldn't help myself.
