Topic #4 AHEDE &. . .
So, for this week's topic - we have a little quiz. You need NOT get the questions correct for it to count - just post the answers somewhere in a post this week.
Q1: Where did the idea of Jack-O-Lanterns originate?
C) Ireland
Q2: Halloween is the 2nd most successful commercial Holiday - what's the first?
A) Christmas
Q3: What is the intense fear of Halloween called?
B) Samhainophobia
Q4: The mask worn by Michael Meyers in Halloween (the Movie) was actually a mask of who?
D) No one - it was an old hockey mask
Q5: In 2004, what was the most popular Halloween Candy?
A) Candy Corn
And finally - tell us what YOUR favorite Halloween Candy is! I'm a Candy Corn person myself - can make me SO sick to my belly, but man I love it! Just the plain old kind though - not the many other flavors and colors there are today!
Chocolate is always my favorite candy, doesn’t matter if it has nuts, nougat, caramel or anything else in it, I just love chocolate.
Guess what, I found my knitting needles and all the paraphernalia that I normally keep together! I was so happy; I hated the thought of buying all of that stuff all over again, with so much money tied up in it. It’s funny, when I started knitting, I did not think about the cost, just that it was something to keep my hands busy, but now when I had to think about replacing most of my stuff, I was in a panic.
I went back to work today, but I was so rested after five whole days of not working (I did not even turn on my work computer) that it’s okay. My daughter’s boyfriend and I built most of the computer desk that we put in the loft area. It wraps two walls, but my daughter and I will have room for all of our computers and not be constantly bumping into one another. I need to put some finishing touches on it and then we will be able to unpack another 20 boxes. Ohhhh boy!

Thank goodness you found your knitting needles before going batty from knitting withdrawals!!!
I loved Candy Corn as a kid, but am not as fond of it now in my adult life. Can't say why. When I pick up Halloween candy these days, I tend to pick up chocolate (like the Milky Way bars, 3 Musketeers, Kit Kats, etc) ... basically stuff I wouldn't mind eating myself if it doesn't all get handed out.
Ooh so glad you found your needles - I'd be at an UTTER loss! I luvers me some candy corn :D and I'm looking forward to a little work break myself! Lord knows I need it.
I just got back Sunday from San Francisco it was a nice break and I got alot of knitting time and crochet time to.Iam glad you found your knitting needles:)Hugs Darcy
