I really don't know much about Halloween and its traditions and I don't feel I need to be educated about it. I have a small Kit Kat chocolate bar near the front door should a kiddie knock on the door. In 22 years here, it has only happened twice. Once was an ever so cute Asian boy and the second time, a young girl with parents hovering in the background.
Of course I will state the US Halloween is overwhelming our local culture. But I know it is about businesses making money. Alongside Halloween decorations are Christmas decorations, and someone said they had seen Easter eggs already.
Christmas mince pies, of course you can buy them in September even.
In my time, I've watched a few clips about how to fold a fitted sheet, and I've never achieved that ideal. I think I might die as this character has.
So if my my words are right, Happy Halloween.

You know all you need to know about Halloween. p.s. I don't like it, too commercialized and too much trouble if you really participate. I tolerated it when I was young and when my daughters were young but I've been done with it for awhile. Bah, humbug! oh wait.... that's not right!! LOL
ReplyDeleteToo funny!
ReplyDeleteI've never been a great fan of Hallowe'en, but lots of people enjoy it. Children enjoy dressing up and going out and about in the dark, usually closely watched by adults, if not accompanied by them.
ReplyDeleteI hate treating Halloween as a kind of party. Since my son grew up, I dont do it at all. Mean old me.
ReplyDeleteYou have had one more door knocker than we have had.
ReplyDeleteI like that theory about ghosts - and fail on folding fitted sheets.
Love the fitted sheet joke!
ReplyDeleteAs a kid, Halloween was such a big event - we would be out for hours roaming the neighbourhood often coming home to get a new empty bag to head out again. It was treats for days, Andrew.
I feel the same about the imported Halloween business. It has started to take over our traditional Hop tu Naa celebration here too.
ReplyDeleteI can totally identify with that fitted sheet meme. I gave up on folding them years ago.
