What does one do at a wine tasting when one doesn't drink wine?
Eat cheese and, as the evening progresses, laugh at the drunks.
It's because you didn't have a strong father figure isn't it?

Sip water, nibble crackers, talk?

Apparently I am a Very Bad Pagan for getting married on Samhain.
As Calli said, Samhain is a time of new beginnings and feasting. It sounds like a wedding to me. Also, your dead ancestors could come.
I love and admire a number of pagans, but I'd be hard put to be too dogmatic about modern paganism, which does include a lot of making shit up. We simply don't much record of Celtic religions that weren't filtered through Christian sensibilities. We know there were bonfires, and that home fires were relit from them.

That's why I refuse to call myself a Wiccan. I'm a hedge witch, dammit. I borrow from a lot of belief and ritual systems.

Swap the labels on the $5 wine with the $40 wine and see if anyone notices.
The really little kids will be done by the time I get home to hand out candy, which is too bad.

I just had a kid some to my door (hs age) with a brown paper lunch bag to hold his candy! I could not believe it.

I just looked out and only one other house still has its light on, so I turned mine off and changed into jammies. I left all the Coffee Crisp and Aeros until the end so I could bogart them. I have quite a few to get through!

Tea is getting cold quickly. Half an hour to go. Might be time to start hobo trashcan fire.

I'm afraid my response would be a very un-PC "Are you fucking kidding me?" Did s/he at least have a costume!?
No CANDY! And I'm an insomniac, so JUST TRY to egg my house. I will cut you.
