🧹 Hallowane 🌖
Happy Halloween! What better day for Halloween than a Saturday? The weekend gets us a bit of relaxation that helps us gear up for taking the kids out in search of bulk quantities of Halloween candy in our bags or buckets…
Whimsy
Is it so wrong to still want some of that childhood whimsy in my life? ~Caroline Stohrer
A classic Halloween moon is definitely a big glowing full moon, but our current phase is actually almost better.
The gibbous waning moon is like a monster slipping back into the shadows.
With the 🍂autumnal color🍂 in our trees and the formerly full moon in the sky, it’s a perfect night for Trick or Treating.
It looks spooky. It’s chilly enough to wear a nice thick costume.
It’s Saturday, so you can go out rested and relaxed for a fun family evening of gratuitously scrounging for…

30 Lost Halloween Candies From the 1980s That Are ILLEGAL Now
We all knew which houses gave out the full-size candy bars and mapped our routes accordingly.
There were the candy aisle standards like Snickers, Hershey bars, Three Musketeers and M&Ms.
You also had Halloween and parade staples like Tootsie Rolls, cinnamon disks, starlight mints and tiny boxes of Milk Duds.
Some people gave out little paper bags filled with candy corn, Mellowcreme pumpkins and other seasonal shapes.
The variety was as endless as the quantity.
You could go out with a plastic pumpkin affixed with a handle and come back with enough candy to last you until Thanksgiving.
Halloween was always…
A Magic Night
🌖 A magic night. A night when anything could happen. 🦇 ~Cynthia Eden
Halloween is, indeed, a part of a genuinely magical childhood.
It was always a fun part of kicking off the cold weather holiday season.
Every kid knows these key waypoints to the comparative doldrums of ❄️ deepest Winter ❄️.
Labor Day, Columbus Day, Halloween, Veteran’s Day, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year’s.
It’s like playing hopscotch and then diving into a snowbank at the end of the court.
We love our holidays and the fun features that go with them.
For me, it’s a kind of warm-up period (even though it’s getting progressively colder 🥶) for writing my annual Holiday Season Serial Romances.
This year has been stalled by exhaustion, but we’re back on track this weekend.
Dennis and Niki have more potholes to dodge before they get their happily ever after.
That’s what I’m up to this weekend. My kids are grown and capable of buying their own candy.
Me? I need to get my fingers on the keys and finish this story in time for the Christmas reading season.
That’s all for today. See you back on Wednesday for 🦝🚯🦝🚯🦝
