Happy Halloween!

We are taking the kids trick or treating tonight, and are faced with the same issue of buying massive amounts of candy for the neighborhood kids. In light of how well our son is responding to the Feingold diet, and becoming aware of how the artifical colors, flavors, and preservatives affect so many kids these days (not just ours!), I decided to get more natural treats for kids this year! We went to Natural Foods Warehouse and got organic raisins, natural fruit leathers, organic dried fruit bags,and the organic lollipops with all natural flavors! As a child, I always went bonkers around Halloween time eating loads of store bought candy each year (my mom had to hide it from me after Halloween!) and I can see that many other children probably go crazy as well. So, start a new trend - offer healthy snacks for Halloween this year!!! You never know...it just might catch on in your own neighborhood!
