It’s Halloween!
🎃👻🍫
Fun Facts:
“🎃The first jack-o'-lanterns were potatoes and turnips.
And they were named after a man named Jack. According to Irish legend, he was a lost soul who wandered the earth carrying only a turnip containing a piece of burning coal, like a lantern. He was called ''Jack of the Lantern,'' which was eventually shortened to ''Jack-o'-Lantern.''
The Irish used potatoes and turnips to stay true to the legend - and because they didn't grow pumpkins, just lots of potatoes. Once Halloween celebrations began in the United States, Irish immigrants realized that the pumpkins' larger size made them a much better fit for jack-o'-lanterns.
👻 Halloween in Mexico is called Dia de los Muertos.
Another name for Halloween is the Day of Dead (Dia de los Muertos). Celebrated on November 2nd, it's the day set aside to honor friends and relatives who have passed away. People who celebrate the holiday believe that on Dia de los Muertos, their dead loved ones come to Earth to spend time with the living, offering them their guidance and wisdom and participating in their celebratory events. As such, the ''Day of the Dead'' is seen as a joyous and positive rather than a scary holiday.”

"After the keen still days of September, the October sun filled the world with mellow warmth...The maple tree in front of the doorstep burned like a gigantic red torch. The oaks along the roadway glowed yellow and bronze. The fields stretched like a carpet of jewels, emerald and topaz and garnet. Everywhere she walked the color shouted and sang around her." — Elizabeth George Speare
