Well this is gonna be some pumpkins

We are watching the approach/forecasts of this big storm headed our way that is pretty much on course to blow the lids off the pumpkins.  Seems the Halloween, the trick for a treat part, will have to come a few days early.

We have our tasting as usual this Saturday from 3-6p and it is free.  We figured, and rightly so, that the distribution of candy might be a bit uneven this year just because that Halloween fell early in the week. Now with the interloping of this big storm, plans should be made now for any number of good reasons.  Candy always falls in the "its a good thing" so behave accordingly.

There is a bit of misunderstanding about Saints and Souls Day and the "Eve" where the townsfolk parade around in costumes and why.  As these days are actually religious days (Eve, Saints and Souls) to get into the theology of it all is best left to other forums.  Just pick out what you like and celebrate it is quite enough for us.  However, to get this big deal few sequence in order, the days are:

  • Our Tasting on Saturday the 27th
  • Buying Candy, stocking up, and buying batteries on the 28th
  • Gate Night on the 29th
  • All Hallows Eve on the 30th
  • All Saints Day on the 1st
  • All Souls Day on the 2nd

Quite a celebration weekend. Be safe. stock up.  More later.
