Regional food favorites vary so much around the U.S. I don't even like Tater Tots with Tater Tots. But then I love fried okra and I'm pretty sure it's not a fried-and-dripping-in-greasy cornmeal veggie that many Americans would find appealing--much less with ketchup on the side. Gee, when I type it like that it sounds horrible to me, too. LOL!

I'm not sure yet if we're handing out candy. I get tired of answering the door, and get a sugar crash because I keep eating the fun sized bars. Even with Wegovy on board, I can manage a decent amount of candy. The trick of trick or treat is just to not have it around. Maybe we'll buy just a few bags, and once it's gone, it's gone. The littlest kids usually make the rounds earlier.

154.1. Down again but for how long? I had 2 glasses of wine at the show last night so might have been a bit dehydrated this morning!

Good church service at our new church this morning! First time in a long time that the worship music brought me to tears!

Otherwise, a pretty lazy day today. DSD, fiancé and DC1 all hanging out today doing a puzzle on the kitchen table. Only DC1 staying for dinner which is leftovers (my favorite?Not!)

Tomorrow I?m taking the kids (adults really) to the Pumpkin patch about an hour away. They have a petting zoo, homemade baked goods (the best apple pies), apples, pumpkins, a little coffee shop and a build your own caramel apple station! Should be fun. The kids want to carve pumpkins later this week. Nice to have some young energy in the house. We are bah humbugs about Halloween and usually go out to eat and keep the lights off so we don?t get Trick or Treaters. They honestly make the dogs too nervous!

Nothing better than a Midwest hot dish. My favorite is Tater Tot casserole with mixed veggies! I like to do a lasagna one too which is essentially lasagna ingredients (I like the cottage cheese version) with malfala pasta instead of lasagna noodles. Hmmmm, makes me think of one my kids loved that I have not made in forever. We called it Chicken Crunch, Crunch. It had cubed chicken breast (cooked), rice, chicken broth, cream of mushroom soup, celery, onions, water chestnuts and sliced almonds. At the end it was topped with Asian rice noodles and served with soy sauce! Might need to make that when the kids are all home again!

Congratulations on a negative test - hopefully your cold will clear up before the party.

We binge watched The Lincoln Lawyer this season too. Really good show!
