One of the traditions we have in our family is having chili for dinner on Halloween night. There's something about making a big batch and allowing it to cook all day long in the crockpot that just makes it so comforting after all the trick or treating. This year, my son is helping pass out candy as my swashbuckling pirate in a socially distance way (which has yet to be determined.) What Halloween traditions does your family have?
