Scrooged on Halloween

The pitter patter of younger feets

They chitter chatter for yummy sweets

Halloween approaches 

Chocolate covered roaches

Always a little trick in "my" treats

I've eaten bugs...but not roaches...that is a trick I'll pass on. The poem is the perfect Halloween treat!

Thanks Danny, I just made a fresh batch. Crunchy and creamy at the same time. On the other hand, the legs get stuck in my teeth, which isn't as appetizing. But, the kids seem to like them.
