Darina Allen: Eat, drink, and be scary this Halloween

Trick or Treat is one of the most exciting and fun celebrations of the entire year.  I love how kids all over the country spend hours in happy anticipation, plotting and planning their costumes, disguises, scary tricks and wizardry. And I can’t bear how their enthusiasm will need to be dampened this year. 

Poor little dotes — robbed of their innocent fun because of Covid-19 restrictions. I keep wondering what the kids make of all this. Amazingly some seem to just take it in their stride — perhaps they think this is all normal. Others are super anxious depending on how much they overhear from adults, radio, TV...hard to avoid it.
