Not Paella

[poliphilo]

I took a look at online paella recipes, realised I didn't have the ingredients- and settled for a fish risotto instead.

We didn't get any trick-or-treaters last year- and we didn't get any this year either. That's because ours is now a Muslim street.

I dreamed I had a ghost in my bed. It was attached to a particular blanket. I got rid of it by throwing the blanket out the window.

Trick 'n treat

How common is that trick or treat stuff in Britain?

I never saw it in the two years I was there, but that was a long time ago. Is it American cultural influence?

I can't judge how common it is, but the newspapers are full of articles about it- for and against. Halloween has certainly grown in importance down the years. When I was a kid it was really no big deal.
