Happy Thanksgiving!!!! I am thankful for the Love Laughter and Happiness in my life. Today of all days this is very apparent. I look forward to spending a relaxing day eating wonderful food with my amazing family and sharing some great laughs. Enjoy this blessed holiday and if you are going shopping tonight, please be safe!
Happy Halloween my lovely followers! Weather you’re into scary moves with blood and gore or more into sweet monsters and fantastic candy like me, enjoy this fun holiday!
It’s the Halloween Weekend!!! My plans for the weekend? Do nothing but read Halloween books, watch Halloween movies, and eat Halloween themed food. What are your plans for this weekend? Happy celebrating my friends.
Anybody else spending the weekend reading Halloween books and getting super excited for the holiday? I do not like scary movies so these are my favorite Halloween movies:
Halloween Town I and II (children’s movie I know but I still love them)
Hocus Pocus
Wizard of Oz (not exactly a Halloween movie I know but close enough)
Hotel Transylvania I and II
What are your favorites?
I am officially a book smeller (apparently that is not a word but I like it so I am going to leave it). My mother in law caught me smelling one of my new books one day and asked me what I was doing. She is an avid reader and she had never even heard of anybody doing that. I couldn’t believe it! The first time I heard of this was watching Gilmore Girls and I have been hooked ever since. It doesn’t matter to me if it’s a new book or an old classic (as long as it’s not dusty!), I will smell them all!
What do you think? Do you smell your books too?
Hello Everyone! Halloween is only 16 days away so if you are still looking for some Halloween books to get you in the spirit (pun not intended) here are the Goodreads.com 15 Best Halloween books:
Happy reading!
My favorite things about fall are hot apple cider, turning leaves, cool crisp air, and the wonderful decorations. I love the wonderful smell and calming flavor of the hot apple cider mixed with the cool crisp air. Add in the turning leaves and decorations and I am just about in heaven. My favorite decoration is my scarecrow Charlie. I got him at a craft fair when I was young and my entire family always knows who I’m talking about when I mention Charlie. Nothing beats sitting outside on a cool autumn day with a good book and a steaming cup of apple cider.
What are some of your traditions?
Today is the day! I usually plan to decorate for Halloween on the first Saturday of October while eating Chinese food. I am super excited and am very anxious to start. Anybody else have a yearly tradition for decorating?
Just a random note, I am very thrifty and hate to spend money, even on books. I will go through hundreds of books at a second hand store looking for anything I might like rather than spend the money on a brand new book. In order for me to spend money on a new book it has to look absolutely amazing, or I have to have gotten it from the library and loved it first.
So imagine my delight when I see two boxes of book at work on our break room table saying “FREE”! I was ecstatic! When I looked inside my delight grew, I didn’t know that could happen. There were a lot of books that I had either borrowed and loved but not yet purchased, or had heard about and wanted to read. Such a wonderful day!
Sorry, just had to tell the world!
So since it is officially fall now it’s that time of year for Pumpkin Spice everything. Although I know it does start earlier now I still wait until it is officially fall. Happy Pumpkin Spicing my followers!
