Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31 each year, originating from the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the beginning of winter. Modern traditions include carving jack-o’-lanterns and trick-or-treating, but the holiday also features themes of costumes, festive gatherings, and eating treats.
One theory holds that many Halloween traditions were influenced by Celticharvest festivals, particularly the Gaelic festival Samhain, which are believed to have pagan roots.[17][18][19][20] Some theories go further and suggest that Samhain may have been Christianized as All Hallows’ Day, along with its eve, by the early Church.[21] Other academics say Halloween began independently as a Christian holiday, being the vigil of All Hallows’ Day.[22][23][24][25] Celebrated in Ireland and Scotland for centuries, Irish and Scottish immigrants took many Halloween customs to North America in the 19th century,[26][27] and then through American influence various Halloween customs spread to other countries by the late 20th and early 21st century.[16][28]
Indulgent Shopping:The expression emphasizes a large quantity of shopping, often with a sense of unrestrained pleasure or luxury.
Extreme Activity:It suggests a continuous and lengthy shopping spree, carried out to the point of physical weariness.
Consumer Culture:The phrase reflects the rise of consumer culture in the mid-20th century, when shopping for enjoyment became more common.
I went to homegoods and Marshalls to do some content for my youtube channel and of course I had to shop! I will update you when I post my shopping vlogs and my haul vlog!
My daughter and her fiance just bought their first house together and I am so excited to see it and help paint and move them in!
It is a scary yet exciting time for them and I will help in any way I can!❤️
What daily habit do you do that improves your quality of life?
It would have to be reading.
I can immerse myself into another world apart from mine, whether the novel is fictional romance, dystopia, or horror genre.
I enjoy my mind taking me to a beautiful forest filled with fairies and dragons.
Onto a mysterious pirate ship on the way to an island guarded by a lighthouse.
Into a haunted mansion filled with spooky pumpkins, scary sounds and many more horrors!
I have also enjoyed novels about finding yourself and moving on.
My favorite genre is horror as I love Halloween! 🎃
I did read a series about a renaissance fair mystery, where magical creatures are captive after eating hexed candies! Magical Renaissance Fair mysteries.
Right now I am back in my fave genre and reading about scary corn mazes and hayrides! I can’t wait for October to do those myself in reality plus pumpkin picking and haunted houses!! So excited!
Meanwhile I let my mind believe that I am there already through novels!
