Happy Halloween!
Remember last weekend when Ben and I hit up the Goodwill for our costume supplies? No one guessed we were going to be…
The Tortoise and the Hare!
After work I grabbed my costume supplies, picked up Ben from work and headed to my mom’s for trick-or-eating.
She made tortilla soup because she thought wanted to be healthy (and normally I kinda sorta do too). So, I had a small bowl…
But, my dad ordered pizza and that salad that is basically all meat. He got the salad for me because he’s nice and thought I wanted to be healthy and eat a salami salad. Thanks Pops.
I have been craving pizza since the Long Beach Mary so I enjoyed a piece (picked off the sausage because it’s not my thing).
And I made Halloween Funfetti cookies. They were ‘well done’ and in this case that doesn’t mean ‘done well’.
After fueling up I went out trick-or-treating with Matt. He was the headless horseman. 
And the tortoise wins!
Snickers is the most popular candy tonight! My mom says it’s because it was on sale.
“Monica, have a Snickers you get a little cranky when you’re hungry.”
Ben and I just had a big debate over what is better – your favorite candy or fresh cookies and milk.
What do you think – Cookies or Candy?
{ 50 comments… read them below or add one }
Cookies always! I can’t do really sweet stuff, especially when it’s fruit-flavored. I guess Hersheys bars are okay…
Candy. Hands down. My kids are asleep and I’m raiding their trick or treating bags as we speak. BTW I totally love your costumes! I might have to steal that one next year
Ooh that’s tough- but I think cookies and milk.
cookies and milk!!… mmm now I want fresh cookies and milk
so easy, fresh cookies and milk!
You are looking super skinny!
Cookies. 100% of the time. Unless there’s chocolate.
that pizza looks delicious and you guys are so cute!
You two are adorable. And, you’re looking fab!!
Candy includes chocolate right?(I always get confused with it being only hard-candy, ha!) Anyway, chocolate wins. Chocolate ALWAYS wins! And, I absolutely can’t stand the taste of milk!
POPCORN
Im salty…..
I’m only salty after a run on a hot day
Cookies with milk for sure!!! Unless, you have ice cream then its ice cream with broken cookies on top!
Cookies and milk wins every time !! Cute outfit idea.
Cookies and milk because it lasts longer.
Cooooookies for sure!!!
Hard to say…if we’re comparing candy and store-bought cookies, then candy. If it’s homemade, from scratch out of the oven, then cookies.
Hands down – homemade cookies!
Love your costumes! I’d say cookies with candy baked in – it’s too hard to pick just one.
Genius!
Aha! Why didn’t I think of that?
Fresh cookie and milk for sure!
Fresh cookies with candy built in….Best of both worlds!
Why pick between the two when you can have both? Fresh baked cookies with candy pieces in the batter.
That is a cute costume idea.
LOVE your costumes idea! So perfect!
That’s a tough one, but I think the answer is definitely cookies sans milk. I’m just not a fan of the white stuff!
Candy is the best!!
Great costume idea! I love it!
Considering that I had a bowl of candy that went wasted b/c NO trick or treaters came by, and I STILL had the urge to make chocolate chip cookies w/ milk last night, I’m going to say DEFINITELY cookies and milk!!!!
Cookies, warm out of the oven. No milk though.
The Kidless Kronicles
COOKIES!
Oh! I had an amazing chocolate chip cookie the other day and thought of you!! It was at Debbie’s Delights. They don’t have a website, but here’s the location deets if you’re in SB (Or contact me and I’ll totally send you one!)

I love candy but it depends on what kind of cookie it is too. LOL
Cookies OR Candy – that’s like asking a Mom to pick her favorite child!!! I guess I’d pick cookies…mmmmm.
cookies and milk.
all
day
long
!!!
almost time for NYC! good luck, girlie!
It’s a tough toss up between candy and cookies/milk – what if the cookie has candy in it?
Can we post our mileage goal on this post? If so, I’m going to tyr to get in 12 miles from today-Sunday! Woohoo, so excited to start the challenge!
Mileage goal goes on the next post I just put up
Hmm I think cookies for sure.. especially if they’re white chocolate macadamia nut
This post made me laugh! I loved your costume and that pizza… #drool Looks like you all had a lot of fun
Sweet snacks are great, but I’m all about the salty snacks! Chips, pretzels, popcorn… bring it on!
haha I love that comment from your mom about eating a snickers so you don’t get cranky! I get a little cranky when I’m hungry too
fresh cookies, hands down!
Fresh out of the oven cookies and ice cold milk! Good luck running the NYC Marathon, you’ll be great!!
Cookies and milk wins every time !!
While I love a good piece of candy, I’m going to have to go with cookies.
Cookies for sure! Although I will say I did make these sugar cookie bars last week that had M&Ms, chocolate chips and peanut butter chips in them and they were ah-mazing!
Cookies FTW!!
Fresh out of the oven cookies and Ice Cold Milk!!
I think freshly baked cookies is infinitely better than candy. Unless… it’s freshly made homemade candy. NAH, I’m still going with cookies.
You are so super cute in these photos!
