Andrea - We don't have candy corn here either. And that looked like the easier day to celebrate,

Julie - What's candy corn?

Okay Julie, you need to celebrate candy corn for the two of us who can't

October 31th:

Carve a Pumpkin Day

Carve a Pumpkin Day is today. If you don't carve a pumpkin by today, when will you get to it?
This is your last chance to carve a pumpkin because Halloween is tonight. Pullout your caring patterns and get down to work. If you cant't find the patterns you have leftover from last year, there's no time to go to the store. They're probably sold out, anyway. Just carve a pumpkin freehand. After it's done, get your costume on and go trick or treating.
We believe this holiday is celebrated a little late. It is better held a few days before, or the weekend before. Then, you can make a pumpkin caring party out of it. You can roast pumpkin seeds, drink apple cider and enjoy your pumpkin carvings.
Have a happy Carve a Pumpkin Day.

Halloween

It's absolutely Halloween. And, Halloween is absolutely the best holiday of the year. It is the favorite for many of us, as there is no stress, no overload, and no "Holiday Depression" . It's just absolutely fun.
For some Halloween links go here.
Quote for the Day: "Home is where the haunt is!"
Did you know? Kids beware! About 9 t of 10 parents admit to sneaking a treat from their kids treat bag.

Increase Your Psychic Powers Day

Today is "the" day to increase your psychic powers.
I'm getting a reading in my mind that you will have a happy and fun filled Increase Your Psychic Powers Day.
Increase Your Psychic Powers Day appears to have roots in England back to the nineteenth century. Some documentation and readings has it occurring on Halloween night. Other, references, has is on the 30th.

*concentrates*

Okay, I'm increasing my psychic powers... I see you are... on

. Yes?

See, I guessed

So tonight you'll get kids knocking on the door asking for candy? I don't know if I would be able to put up with that

**ice_ice_baby** · 10-31-2009, 11:01 AM

In theory, yes. We've been getting less and less kids each year since the mall gives out candy so most kids go there and go store to store

I updated the OP with November celebrations.

November 1st:

All Saint's Day

The Christian holiday of All Saint's Day honors and recognizes all of the saints of the christian church, many of which were martyrs. The church sets this day aside to celebrate over 10,000 recognized saints. Historically, All Saints Day was known as Hallomas.
Did you know? All Saints Day and All Souls Day was originally in May. They were moved to November 1st and 2and to downplay the Pagan holidays of Halloween (All Hallow's Eve) and Dia De Los Muertos. Religious leaders felt these holidays were too popular at the time to ban outright. But, if moved the christian holidays to this time periods, the pagan holidays would slowly die away.......

I'm not Christian, so I'll just celebrate the start of a new month. Happy November everyone!

**ice_ice_baby** · 11-01-2009, 10:25 AM

I'm kinda Christian, but I've never heard of that day

**strawberrypie** · 11-01-2009, 10:45 AM

How are you kinda christian?

It's also Chemistry week... I never really liked chemistry

**ice_ice_baby** · 11-01-2009, 10:59 AM

My parents are Christian, I was raised going to Sunday School at church and there are only a few things here and there that I don't agree with.

I've never been good at chemistry... at all (or anything science related)

November 2nd:

All Souls Day

The Christian holiday of All Soul's Day pays respect and remembers the souls of all friends and loved ones who have died and gone to heaven. It is a time to pray for their souls that they may be received into heaven.

Look For Circles Day

Look For Circles Day is today. Go forth, in search of circles. We suspect you will find them everywhere. Looking for circles, is a lot like swimming in a round pool. You go round and round. There's a lots of splashing. But, you don't get anywhere.
Did you find lots of circles? We knew you would. And, we hope that your search has made you very happy.
We hope you take a circuituitous route to a happy and fun filled Look For Circles Day!

Deviled Eggs Day

National Deviled Eggs Day is today. All of you devils, must go forth and consume deviled eggs on this very special day.
Certainly, the whole purpose of this day, is to make and eat Deviled Eggs. You can use your favorite recipe, or (hopefully) find a restaurant serving them in recognition of this day.
Make plans on getting your fill of Deviled Eggs on National Deviled Eggs Day!

Look For Circles Day

PD had lots of circles in the design of the sets so if we look there they'd be lots

Deviled Eggs Day... Hmm. I usually like eggs scrambled. I'll give this some thought

**ice_ice_baby** · 11-02-2009, 09:28 AM

Look for Circles Day?!

Okay, um, right now, I see some DVDs, one of our dog's balls, some kind of circle chocolate thing, a round plate, and the speakers of my CD player are round
