Halloween is my favorite day of the year! All saints, pumpkins, ghosts, vampires, witches - what's not to like??????? I think werewolves are also included. Because Halloween is not officially celebrated here in Cyprus, I first learnt about it when I was a child and saw E.T. - the film about the M&Ms loving, ancient, alien botanologist, where Halloween takes center stage. E.T. gets stranded on Earth, falls in love with M&Ms chocolate and befriends a troubled human boy called Eliot. The rest, as they say, is history.
Now Halloween is celebrated in Cyprus with parties and jack-o-lanterns, and All Saints is of course part of the liturgical calendar. A few shops have been decorated, and Fairy Cakes made a Halloween fairy cake, with a chocolate bat on top. I miss England, where everything was decorated in orange, black and all things spooky!!!!
The Halloween festival is very old, and you can read all about it in Merriam-Webster online. There is a lovely little article on Halloween today!
Happy Halloween everyone - and don't forget to take beauty always with you!
