Roy McReed pressed the white garage door button. The garage door closed. He opened the kitchen door. He walked into the spacious newly remodeled kitchen. " Hi sweetie".
" Hi honey". Margaret McReed put down a carving knife. " I'm just finishing up our Halloween pumpkin".
He yawned as he put his brown briefcase on top of their wooden hutch. " work was really busy today". He walked over to their white refrigerator, opened it and peered inside. " Sweetie, have you seen my Hostess treats?"
" Yes they are next to your cheese slices".
He saw the familiar red ,white and blue package. He opened it and took a long bite. " I love these things".
" What are they?".
" Hostess Devil's Food zingers".
" Oh, I need you to do something for me".
He gave her a kiss on the cheek. " Anything".
" I need you to go to the store and purchase our Halloween candy for tomorrow".
" Ok".
