Today is All Saints Day (1 Nov)

Here it is observed as a (major) public holiday - everything is closed. Many go to Church.

Tomorrow will be All Souls Day (2 Nov). here it is called the Day of the Dead. folks go to the cemetery to visit their dead. around this period, special cinnamon thingies are made (soft, oblong cookies), with cinnamon and dusted with powdered sugar. they symbolize bones of the dead even though most are very soft to eat. i always thought that eating bones of the dead was kinda twisted but... i can't complain ... they are yummy.

i do not have any bones but i have a big bowl full of kit kats and mini bounties because we did not get any trick or treaters after the first group. i know living in a condo we would not get a lot, but we used to get more. oh well. i just ate me two kit kats for breakfast.

interested to hear how Bizi'z haunting went.

Mari i hope you get to stay dry. it has been rainy here too, but with everything closed, nobody is going anyplace anyway.

Kay i hope something nice happens for you today, that makes you smile.
