When people have moved to leaving candy out, perhaps kids thought that not having them out means you’re not participating. Also, when many houses have left them out, for efficiency, it makes sense to only go to those houses.

I’m glad to hear that the sign helped. Shows that some kids aren’t just about getting as much candy as possible but also having a bit of fun.

If this happens, push the ball of your feet up. The ball of you feet is the front of your foot connected to the toes, helped me many times.

If something was too acidic I’d probably add a sprinkle of MSG, or Parmesan if you don’t have that.

I add sugar when I make pasta sauces all the time, also to stews and stir fries. It’s a nice dimension.

I wonder how this might even work? If the Russians have been so good at oppressing LGBT symbols, then a rainbow is just a rainbow. It’s pretty, why wouldn’t you want jewellery that looks like a rainbow?
