An idea as Friday approaches

For the third year in a row- this candy bowl and sign will be on our front porch greeting trick-or-treaters. 
(An 80 pound black lab shepherd mix will eagerly be waiting inside to inflict bodily harm if a bad guy is reading this)


A new bowl and sign will be added to the porch, along with a teal pumpkin
Just an idea for folks.
"As you walk around the neighborhood for some Halloween fun this year, you might find yourself wondering why some of the pumpkins are teal.  These pumpkins don’t come from a strange patch, but from a new national campaign called The Teal Pumpkin Project that’s promoting food-allergy awareness this Halloween...
To participate, individuals paint a pumpkin teal and display it, or post a free, printable FARE sign from the organization’s website, then provide non-food treats to trick-or-treaters on Halloween. FARE suggests offering trinkets such as glow sticks, bracelets, vampire fangs and spider rings."
