It's time for the ZAPFIC Monday challenge for Week #53. The prompt this week "powder" presented the opportunity to have fun with a story involving good intentions as today is Halloween.

My story is below:

Halloween. Eric dressed, sprinkling dust on his face and bare arms at the last minute.

No one would notice. Proud of his costume, he rushed outside to greet the crowd.

The kids all laughed after one mother shouted, "he's wearing baby powder."
