Hey there Sexy Readers!

Did you get all dressed up for All Hallows Eve this past weekend?  Maybe you went to a spooky sexy party, or a Halloween haunt? Perhaps you partook in a mock zombie apocalypse and saved the word with a chainsaw, watched scary movies, or put on a suit of solid gold.  However you celebrate, it’s easy to argue that October 31st is one of the most fun days of the year (even though Halloween seems to extend a few days before and after now). But remember how much fun you had as a kid? Go back to the time when you were young, dressed up as a cowboy/robot/ninja/princess, and ran from door to door yelling the magical words “trick or treat”, always expecting treats, but sometimes getting tricked. Remember how much fun it was to get your favourite candy? How lame it was when you got handfuls of candy corn or even an apple?

Well, there are a few staples of Halloween that any kid loves to get in their pumpkin shaped satchel of snacks, and Chad Sexington is no exception. Even though you’re not a kid anymore, it’s still possible for you to enjoy these tasty treats in plenty. After all, you’re now the proud owner of a door, and all you need is a street with some kids to use as an excuse to stock up on Halloween candy that you really like that you can ‘give out’ to ‘trick or treaters’ when they come to your door. If you’re in a bind as to what to grab, check out these chewy candy treats, many of which are a personal favourite of the Chad and are loved by kids everywhere.

Peanut Butter Cups – Perfect for kids who aren’t allergic to peanuts.  But since you can’t tell who is and isn’t these days, you might as well keep these for yourself.

Licorice – Be sure to get the very long kind. Cherry is the best flavour, but if they’re over 6 inches long, kids could get hurt if it gets wrapped around their neck. Better keep those to yourself too just in case.

Cans of soft drinks – These are one of the most prized possessions of children everywhere. A can of pop is like the gold brick of trick or treating. I remember comparing brands and flavours with friends as a kid, like they were some sort of cylindrical collectable card game.  You might need to help yourself to a few of these caffeinated colas in order to keep yourself perky for the night.

Bags of chips – Salt n’ vinegar, ketchup, and BBQ, all in those tiny little bags.  These are undoubtedly the most delicate of treats. Kids will hoard and savour these bags of chips for a long time, rationing them out for lunches and movie nights for almost a month.  It’s a good idea if you crack open a few bags just to check for freshness using a good statistical model. You wouldn’t want to give out stale chips after all.

Chocolate bars – The most scrumptious selection of chocolate bars is a staple of Halloween.  The best part about these is the bag you conveniently ‘forgot’ to give away because you left it under the table.

Yes sexy readers, Halloween is quite the ‘Holiday’ no matter what you get up to. But while you’re enjoying your next one responsibly, just remember how much magic the night holds for the young and old alike (especially those parents who dip a little into their kid’s candy stash) and how you always felt the rewards of your hard nights work. It truly is a spooktacular night.

Until next time,

Stay Sexy.
