Do you know where Halloween originated from? It originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off ghosts. It was believed that on this day ghosts of the dead returned to earth. Over time, Halloween evolved into a day of activities like trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins, festive gatherings, dressing yourself in costumes and eating sweet treats. Interesting, right? I just picked up our door sign for tomorrow, so the trick or treaters will come by to get some treats! I picked up pretzels and M&M’s, what are your favorite treats to give out?
