Walmart and other superstores have started bringing out their Halloween decorations, and my wallet&#8217;s getting skinnier by the second. My shopping cart&#8217;s constantly full of little pumpkin and cinnamon apple candles with costume accessories littered over them. Sweater weather is in full swing, and you bet I&#8217;m getting ready for it. Knit sweaters and corduroy pants are all I&#8217;m gonna be wearing, baby. Time to crack open my dark lipstick and a jug of apple cider because I&#8217;ve been waiting for this for ages.<\/p>\n<p>Halloween has been my favorite holiday for most of my life, as I always loved to dress up in costumes and watch the Halloween specials on TV. Even today, I have a personal tradition of watching Cartoon Network&#8217;s Over the Garden Wall every October that&#8217;s lasted for a few years now. My fingers are itching to start carving pumpkins, brew pumpkin spice coffee, and stitch together costumes to wear.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Of course, things are definitely going to be different now with Covid-19 knocking on everyone&#8217;s doors, but the spirit of autumn and Halloween will live on! I am certain of it. So go out there and get your vanilla lattes and eat discounted chocolate; you deserve it!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m allowing myself to fully devolve into a basic white girl for this one.
