Good morning!
It is the first day of October and that means, time to start celebrating the different holiday seasons in the last three months of the year!
I have had my fall decorations up since the middle of September!
Do you like Halloween and all the other seasons coming up? I like Halloween in particular because my mom loved it. She would put a ton of decorations throughout the house.
what was your favorite Halloween tradition growing up and/or now? the only one I personally have now is my cat Onyx gets a gift and a few treats for breakfast from Halloween to the Fourth of July. basically every holiday imaginable
i remember growing up on Trick or Treat night even when my sister and I didn't go around, my mom and dad wanted to be a part of the festivities so my mom would make us beef stew EVERY Halloween as she made hers in the crockpot and have it cook all day. then she made those buns one gets in the tube and we would rush through our meal so we could see the little kids get their potato chips and pretzels at my house they got those snack-sized bags of them
One more memory. Once my mom put a can of tomatoes in her beef stew for Halloween and I never tasted anything so tasty! it was phenomenal, her best beef stew ever and she was a great cook to begin with!
Do you have any memories of Halloween or traditions to share? Please i want to hear them!

I used to dress up for Halloween. I only once went out for trick or treat. We used to hand out candy when I grew up. Then later on, my uncle would get me to help him hand out candy at his church. I do watch scary moves around this time. I will be wearing my Halloween shirt I bought last year before Halloween and on Halloween I will wear a dress.

My sister bought a shirt with Halloween decorations on to wear in the house yesterday. Actually, i bought it for her at CVS with a coupon since she didn't have a coupon. I only bought a bottle of body wash for $2.50 and saved quite a bit on everything.
Will the dress you wear on Halloween be decorated to look like Halloween or do you dress up with a regular dress?

I am not sure how much I enjoyed trick or treating but I have always liked Halloween as it sort of starts the holiday season. Then Halloween evening if one watches TV the Christmas commercials begin in earnest!

we don't celebrate in a cemetery, at least not in my area as it is cold and sometimes snowy in November. But we Catholics have Masses for our loved ones who have passed

@LovesEverybody I am also a Roman Catholic. We also offer prayers for them in the church.

@Shavkat we do all our prayers for them in churches. I don't know about the areas of my country like California or Florida where it is warmer weather in November. My area spends most of November freezing and sometimes it snows!

@grenery8 I hope they put a horror movie on TV for you! Can't suggest anything as I try to avoid horror or I don't sleep at night!
