Halloween safety for food-allergic children

Keep your Kids safe from those pesky allergies

Halloween holds special dangers for children with severe food allergies or sensitivities to food dyes and other additives.

The small candy bars passed out at this time of year may have different ingredients than their regular-size counterparts. So even if a certain candy is safe, the “fun size” version might not be.

The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology warns parents of food-allergic children to check ingredients on packages or company Web sites to ensure there is no risk of a reaction.

If in doubt, do not let the food-sensitive child eat the candy.

The academy offers these tips to help families of food-allergic children be safe at Halloween:

Distribute safe snacks to neighbors and request that they be handed out to your child.
Work with your child’s teacher to plan a school party with safe foods and treats such as stickers or novelty erasers. Or pack treats from home that other students can give to your child.
Instead of trick-or-treating, host a party that focuses on costumes, games and other Halloween fun.
Teach your child to politely refuse home-baked goodies such as cookies or cupcakes.

Big Night of Comedy for the Candidates

A roast, two talk shows and the new ‘Saturday Night Live: Weekend Update’ made Thursday a big night of comedy for the presidential race.

John McCain and Barack Obama traded jokes instead of barbs at a charity event to benefit needy children. McCain said he’d replaced his advisers with Joe the Plumber, and Obama named “humility” as his greatest strength. Rate their jokes below, get the full story from CNN and see Political Machine blogger Mo Rocca’s firsthand account of the event.
McCain finally graced the ‘Late Show’ with David Letterman, facing a barrage of tough questions after his earlier cancellation. “I haven’t had so much fun since my last interrogation,” the GOP candidate said.
The new Thursday night ‘Saturday Night Live: Weekend Update’ lampooned this week’s final presidential debate and its big star, Joe the Plumber.
As for the vice presidential nominees, Democrat Joe Biden stopped by the ‘Tonight Show.’ And GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin won’t be left out of the fun. She’s slated to appear on Saturday’s version of ‘Saturday Night Live.’ Will she do herself better than Tina Fey did?

The Look Of Lipstick Jungle: Wendy’s Take-Charge Professional Style

Ok, so she got fired at the end of the episode. But Wendy (Brooke Shields) looked damn professional when it happened. We think Wendy’s wardrobe sets the standard for polished, modern, high-powered office wear – a wearable, realistic breath of fresh air from the days when Carrie Bradshaw trotted around Manhattan in hot pants and halters. Below, get the look of one of her spot-on outfits from last night’s episode.

A silk blouse with just the right amount of detail plus a tailored pencil skirt is always a winning work combo. Here Wendy wears Fendi’s bow-front blouse ($840) and a simple black skirt like this wool pencil skirt ($88)
