Salut cozyns,
I don't know when it changed, but it did change. We stick to the better
neighborhoods, but we still check everything the kids get.
For years I heard stories about pins and razor blades in candied apples and
popcorn balls. My parents gleaned all those homemade things from our treat
bags. For many years after that, I heard that these were all urban
legends--that no one had ever gotten an apple with a pin or blade in it.
Bad news. It's *not* an urban legend:

Ariel and her friends will trick or treat in Terrytown, and she'll have a
fun time running around in her Mad Hatter costume. But we'll still check her
stuff when she gets home.
h
Happy Halloween
En Lyonel
