Wallace the Brave by Will Henry for October 29, 2019

I don’t know if you can bathe in caramel. Wouldn’t you just kind of sit on top like a fishing bobber, as it seared your bottom nethers?

And it would stop up parts that need to not be stopped up.

Another raving loner with a monstrous chocolate habit…What could go wrong?

No way any kid is going to climb my driveway this year – but I got some candy, just in case!

We live in a very rural area and my nearest neighbour is a half km away. We do not get trick or treaters on our lonely country road.Do I miss them? Yes. Do I,still buy all the best chocolate every year “just in case”?

Damm Right!! Hahaha! My chocolate! My candy…..My Precious…..

There was a haunted house 2 doors down from Tim and Julie. All dilapidated and overgrown. The porch light was on. I wasn’t hot on going to that house, but we had to since the light was on. An old lady in a witches costume met us and invited us in. We waited on the porch with several other children. It looked like you would expect. We wondered what we had gotten into. Another group of children came and she said, “This looks like enough.” She slid back a pocket door we had not noticed in the dark to reveal a beautiful victorian-style parlor with the biggest halloween party you’ve ever seen all set up.

So is all that candy decades old?

Wallace has the key to Spud’s soul!

That old lady represents the triumph of hope over experience.

If Wallace is right, then there is a purpose for the wagon.

That’s me! Every year I buy king size candy bars, and the next day my co-workers get ’em.
