"Spook" able & "Spook"tacular Hall-o-ween 🎃

Yay, Its official Halloween Season !!!!!


Halloween for us includes a wide range of possibilities like kids wearing "boo-tiful" costumes, "Boo-Bash" party, hilarious "ghoulish" foods, spine-tingling "scary" movies (especially Halloween kid/teen movies lol, we have to be careful of what we are watching in presence of kids ) and so on......

Halloween or All Hallows' Eve is a celebration as a festival of Samhain observed in many countries on 31 October every year.  

Pre-Covid, we would host Halloween parties at our place and from our place all the kids along with some parents would go looking or rather "hunting" for spooky treats 🍬 every "Trick or Treat" 🍭 one house to another wearing Halloween costumes and face paints/makeup which obviously was kids’ favorite part of the day …

We along with some parents would create tidbits of fun food menu like "little" pumpkin cakes, caramel apple "Bites", "witch" cookies for kids and adults and party-goers especially kids would scream for more. It was rather fun and interesting...

We also used to take our kids to our neighborhood street, the Owner's who live there would decorate their front yard every year with a Pirate ship décor. Amazing isn't it ?⛵


I miss those incredible days. But now, we rather have a "safe" Halloween, mask up😷, do not encourage huge gatherings and definitely follow local laws and regulations.

Every year we go to "Spirit Halloween" store in October, we love going to this store and have lots of fun by selecting Halloween costumes and accessories. Last week we went to one and right when you walk to the entrance door you could see Halloween décor with these giant displays of scary villains' and monsters welcoming you. There were a couple of cute, funny costumes and classic horror section with the scary masks and attires we have seen and I don't think we would have seen anywhere in Walmart, target etc.


I also brought this "Haunted House" cookie kit from Traders Joe. Hope my kid builts it before eating it...LOL 😄


Well, I am posting this article before Halloween, So I will definitely add the upcoming 2021 Halloween photos after Halloween 😀

Hope You all have "Spook"tacular Hall-o-ween !!!!

  If you all read my previous article about "Hamilton Viewpoint Park" ->  https://sk-digilance.blogspot.com/2023/02/hamilton-viewpoint-park-seattle.html ,  after visiting this place we were on our way to one of my Favourite place in Washington, one of the world's most recognizable brand -  " The Starbucks Center " -  the headquarters of the global coffee giant @ Seattle,  a must-visit destination for coffee/ Tea lovers. I must say, I am a tea lover and my spouse is a coffee lover. The headquarters is the largest  and oldest multi-tenant building. An impressive building with an interesting history. It was originally built in 1912 as a Sears, Roebuck & Co. distribution center and was converted into the headquarters of Starbucks in 1997. The building has undergone extensive renovations to transform it into a modern, sustainable workspace that reflects the company's values. While the Starbucks Center is primarily a working office building, it is also ope

As you may know, I enjoy taking time to browse through my photo albums to relive the memories of my past travels. Recently, I came across pictures from my trip to Hershey's Chocolate World of Pennsylvania in 2018, and it was truly a remarkable experience. The trip was filled with excitement and wonder as I explored the world of chocolate and indulged in delicious treats.  Wow & wow! This store is like a dream come true for me! The place is enormous and filled with all kinds of Hershey's candies. They also have 3-D movie and historical Trolley ride which is a must-see. The selection is immense and the atmosphere inside is joyous, colorful, and fun. As soon as I walked in, I started smiling because I love Chocolates, I was so impressed with its history too. The prices for rides or candies were good. As i said before, we can experience all the rides for fun, and the best part is that we will get sample chocolate on all the rides as a compliment.  The "Make Your Own Choco
