How many Pumpkins have you lit?

Fun fact of the day…

Boston, Massachusetts holds the record for the most Jack O’Lanterns lit at once which were 30,128.

Can you imagine that? That is absolutely insane! I think that the most that I have ever had in my year is many seven… tops, and the most I have seen lit in one place… maybe twenty. Jeeze, I bet that would have been an amazing site! Imagine all the pumpkin pies that could be made after that! Or number of pumpkin seeds! Hopefully they used them well!

Do you like Snickers?

Fun fact of the day…

Chocolate bars top the list as the most popular candy for trick-or-treaters with Snickers at #1.

Now I must say, yes Snickers are good, but I would much rather take a Kit-Kat, or a Areo over a Snickers any day!

My opinion… of course this is true, how many people can resist little candies? Especially if they are right there! Haha I know when I have kids they are going to have to hid their candies from me!!

Now my opinion about this is that really, the fear of Halloween? I think that there are just so many made up words for things for people to be scared of. However, I do understand irrational fears… haha
