Well, friends, it is time to bid October farewell for this year!
Tomorrow, we say hello to November and begin preparations for Thanksgiving, Advent, and Christmas. You can be sure that there will be plenty of posts celebrating those seasons, holidays and holy days in the days and weeks to come. But for today, we are still celebrating October...
I must say that I am quite pleased to have completed a full month of blogging, every day for 31 days. I have thoroughly loved sharing some of my family's favorite recipes, seasonal thoughts, and other celebrations. October was a beautiful month full of Autumn bliss.
My book list was quite empty for this month, though I did manage to reach my reading goal for the year earlier this month. My goal was to read 20 books, and 20 books I read. Even though I completed my list and reached my goal for the year, that doesn't mean that I have stopped reading. In fact, I have several books to share about in an upcoming "Book Talk", and am beginning several books very soon.
I have quite a few ideas and lots of inspiration for upcoming posts...both for the coming month, and next year. So, there are lots of fun things to look forward to. Writing is my passion and I love sharing it with others!
Today is Halloween, so for us, that means a special dinner and watching Halloween episodes of our favorite shows. We will also be enjoying some of that yummy bread I talked about yesterday...and yes, the recipes are coming soon. While I do miss the days of dressing up and trick-or-treating around the neighborhood, this is a fun season of spending Halloween at home, with quiet celebrations. But you can bet that I look forward to the future with great excitement, joy, anticipation, and giddiness when I can dress up my own wee ones and see the magic of the night through the eyes of kiddos. What fun that will be!
I do hope that this has been a wonderful month for you, and I wish you all a very Happy Halloween!
There is only one way I can think of to end this post:
"I'm so glad I live in a world where there are Octobers."
Anne girl, I agree, wholeheartedly!
Blessings to you this day, dear friends!
