Compulsive Halloween Documentation

Halloween loot, as measured (and put into separate ziplocks) by a 12-year-old:

Tootsie Pops, 1 lb.
KitKats, 1 lb.
Milky Ways, 1 1/2 lbs.
Stuff I Won't Eat, 2 lbs., including Snickers and anything with nuts. Plus who gives out orange crackers with peanut butter?
Rings -- spiders, scream mask, elephant, jewel
Reese's
Crunch bars
Laffy Taffy
3 Musketeers
Skittles
Milk Duds
Hershey's
Now and Laters
Smartees
Rolos
Nerds

2 quarters
2 pieces of Jewish candy with Hebrew letters on it
1 black cat eraser

Thrown out: loose m&ms, apples

Total weight of Halloween candy: 11 lbs. Eleven pounds.
Plan: sell some at school.

Secret to success: trick-or-treat in a high-rise filled with people who want to give their candy away and go to sleep. Score.

We got lucky and it started to rain before Rick could score big-time.
