note on brining a turkey:
It can add up to 500 mg of sodium per 4oz serving. ( ~22% of the daily limit).

A child carrying a blue pumpkin bucket may be nonverbal, have autism, or experience sensory processing challenges. The blue color signals to neighbors and candy-givers that the child might not respond in typical ways—like saying "trick or treat" or "thank you". Don't force them to do so.
