                                                                         B-DAY                                     


Daily Quote/Random Fact:  "Trick or treat" was not necessarily the original phrase children would shout out to receive candy. Instead, kids would allegedly yell, "Belsnickel!". According to the Library of Congress, historians argue that the modern call originated from "belsnickeling," a German-American Christmas tradition where kids dressed in costumes and went around to their neighbors to see if they could guess the identity of those dressed up.
