“Trick a treat, smell my feet, give me something good to eat. . .”

My kids have been chanting these words for almost a month now, and I’m happy to say, Halloween is finally here and hopefully that means the end of these words. . .or at least until next Halloween! Halloween is definitely not a Chinese holiday, in fact, most Chinese people are extremely superstitious, therefore, any mention of the ghost is a sign of bad luck.

Here in the US, however, is a different story. Our neighborhood is bustling with Halloween decorations for the past month, and we’ve been to 2 different Halloween parties already this year! The picture to the right are the 2 jack-o-lanterns my kids did with some help from my husband. I know I’m biased here, but I must say, they look pretty darn good!

It’s also exciting to see the cute costumes on the little ones, usually lots of princesses and super heros. This year is no exception. In fact, parents and kids are getting more creative every year. Some of the best costumes I’ve seen so far this year for the kids are GI Joe’s, personal chef, and a doctor and 2 reckless driver patients.

What’s your favorite Halloween costumes this year? We would love to hear from you!
