Halloweenies

I bet you're wondering about the unusual title. It comes from the type of dish my mother made on Halloween day. Basically a mini hotdog wrapped in bread, then baked. Therefore Halloweenies :) It's an excellent yet simple dish. Back on the subject. I never liked Halloween. I have never seen all the "hype" behind it. I do like dressing up though. I just dislike the outbreaks of shenanigans the teenagers do on this day. Smashing pumpkins, egging houses, and throwing toilet paper, basically mummifying people's homes just because it's Halloween. I don't think of Halloween as a day of hardcore devil worship. In fact, Halloween has nothing to do with that. Halloween, otherwise known as All Saints Eve is a day of worshipping the saints and martyrs. Although this is true, Halloween has been linked to the devil in the Bible. "The Druids invented the earliest Halloween celebrations. They were an order of Celtic sorcerers. The Bible condemns all sorcery and sorcerers (Rev 21:8; 22:15)." Even though Halloween has been linked to the devil, this day was used to pray for those who have died. We dress up on Halloween because back in the day on that day, they did too. They would sing, dance, and eat in commemoration of this day.  This old tradition has carried its way into the twentieth century for kids, teenagers and adults to enjoy. So dress up, have fun, eat happy and dance, but do not do things you would regret in the future just because it's Halloween.
