Went to HL yesterday and nary a Christmas thing in sight. Such a bummer.DAYS TO JOL DAY: 59
DAYS TO THE BERS: 91
DAYS TO OCTOBER: 121
DAYS TO HALLOWEEN: 151
Good Morning Halloween Friends! It's almost the weekend and it's almost time for another MILESTONE DAY. That's right, the 150 DAYS TO HALLOWEEN milestone is TOMORROW! What a way to ring in a Friday!
Folks, that count has been the "last" one that has really been holding on. The others felt like they started melting away ever since we started our journey through "Spooky Spring" and when we broke the seal on being half-way to Halloween.
We'll also see the Bers count break into the 80's by this weekend. That one seems like it's going the fastest of all!
Another Hobby Lobby Run is planned for this weekend. Now that Memorial Day is over, will we FINALLY see some Christmas stuff in there?
Have a great day!
I have never kept a pumpkin indoors much after Thanksgiving, I usually move them outside and put them out in a field. One year I tried to dry Birdhouse Gourds with no success, but I know there are conditions in which those can be preserved.Morning Halloween Fans! CW mentioned in the Thanksgiving Thread he had to throw out his pumpkin from October. Wow. I wonder how long one can last. Anyway I'm feeling Octoberish. Have a great day!
I'm figuring best case scenario we are roughly a month and a half from seeing some sort of Halloween candy in the store. Mountain Dew should have their seasonal batch of "Voo Doo" hit the stores by mid August, IIRC. That's another thing that I watch for.Dang, 150 days! I get chills just thinking about October already.
Now it's time for Halloween Candy Watch. How early will we spot it this year? Which store will put it out first, and which of us here on MMC will be the first to find it? (Spoiler alert: It'll probably be @Rich.)
Kind of like a game of Clue when you think about it. "It was Rich at CVS on July 13 with the bag of fun-sized Butterfingers."
