What to do with all this candy?

On the first workday after Halloweeen every workplace is filled with sweets from candy-hander-outers who didn’t have as many trick-or-treaters as they expected, or parents who limit their children’s sugar intake.

Some people made their costumes

Some people are endowed with super powers to create costumes for Halloween. If you are not one of them, please join me as I drop my jaw and stare in amazement at the incredible creations shared by these Southern Californians on Twitter.
