Halloween Nostalgia

People always ask about family traditions and special things your family does ever year. My family didn't have too many of those, but one always comes to mind around this time of year. Every year on Halloween my mom would make the same thing for dinner. Chili mac. Basically this consists of chili and macaroni noodles with cheese on top. My mom says that's just what she would make because it was easy and fast. Every year when it comes close to Halloween, my body tells me that I should be eating chili mac soon. I still hold true to this tradition and guess what is for dinner tonight? That's right. I can't make it tomorrow because we'll be at the family game night at church. I will be dressing up as a farmer for my students tomorrow. I have never dressed up as a farmer before. I think its fun to dress up. Everyone at work seems to think of it as a drag and something they are forced to do. I think it's especially fun for the children to see their teachers all dressed up. I hope everyone has a fun and safe Halloween!

P.S. I hope nobody smashes my pumpkins again like last year. =(
