It’s that spooky time of year again, when strange kids disguised as super heroes and ghouls come knocking at you door, begging for treats in the form of candy.
This can be a stressful time of year for any homeowner. What happens if your treats just aren’t good enough, or god forbid, that you run out of candy?
Retribution from the neighbourhood kids in the form of eggs, and toilet paper is usually what happens.
So if you are like me, and need to take a bit of the edge off during this spooky time of year, these Halloween Themed Martinis should do the trick:
