2 years ago I handed out treats at home as a hippie chick.
For this year, I looked through my thrift store treasures and will probably be going to 2 parties in addition to handing out treats.
The first party is a mid morning church ladies crochet/craft group who are mostly senior citizens. My wife is the president and I regularly show up at lunch time. Two members dared me to dress as a Red Hat Society lady. I'm going to take up their challenge - got a red hat and boa from a dollar store to go with an old fashioned elegant purple dress and appropriate jewelry.
The early evening same day the church is having a neighborhood kids party and I will be helping. I kid the ones in charge that their policy for adult helpers having non-scary costumes is a mickey mouse rule. I will be assisting as Minnie Mouse. I have a long red polka dot dress, a white net petticoat that just barely peeks out from the hem of the dress, and of course, mouse ears.
On the evening of the 31st, I will be handing out treats at home as either a flapper in a beaded black and white dress, a princess in a floor length purple satin gown, or a cowgirl in a blue fringed dress with silver metallic lace trim.
I plan on taking my camera and hope to have pictures to post.
