When did you last (if ever) go
trick-or-treating on Halloween and
what was your costume?

Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow Creeps in this petty pace from day to day, To the last syllable of recorded time; And all our yesterdays have lighted fools The way to dusty death. Out, out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage And then is heard no more: it is a tale Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury, Signifying nothing. -- Macbeth, Act 5, Scene 5

I am guessing it was at an expat party in Indonesia and I was in my 30s...but for the life of me I cannot remember what I wore!
It was a great party, too.
All the staff our local supermarket here were dressed in costumes yesterday...lots of fun. Good, innocent fun.
Lee, if it was 1883/84 you and your ex must have truly been a witch and wizard. LOL
Oh my, I just remember that I dressed up as a cowboy when I worked at the elementary school back about 25 years ago. So that is a more recent time.

Actual trick or treating - oh my, that was so long ago I can't even think. I remember having a skeleton costume with one of those plastic masks out of which you couldn't really see. :) My neighborhood growing up was a large circle, with a street running through the middle - we knew everyone, so it was fun for us, as well as our mom or dad.
One Halloween (I was probably 12 or so), my dad was walking around the circle with me and my little sister, and we encountered a man who was a neighbor, walking alone. My dad spoke to him and chatted a moment. Sometime that night, the man was killed (murdered) - he was found dead in a nearby creek. I remember my dad being completely shocked and talking to my mother about it, that it was so eerie that we had stopped and talked to him and also that he was walking about alone with no kids. (Although not out of the question, since it was a small town neighborhood.) This memory just resurfaced - I hadn't thought of this since.
Okay G.B., now I have my costume for next year. LOL. You were too clever. That was my kind of Halloween costume. Ha, ha, ha, ha......
This year I didn't do anything, just claimed to be the "Munchkin Queen Zombie" n moaned...
