a classic halloween

Our costumes are decided, we have carved pumpkins, and we are on our way to eating plenty of pumpkin-y treats.  Scotland does do Halloween, but I have been craving some classic Halloween, with leave-lined sidewalks, cool (not freezing) weather, fun parties with bobbing for apples, and costume contests, trees filled with ghosts made of sheets, and simple decorations, like black bat garland and fake spiderwebs everywhere.  --It all sounds very USA-Halloween-up-in-New-England to me.  Or even Martha Stewart magazine-y... As you can see here,  I got my pumpkin carving inspiration from the above #1...
Happy (end of) October!

I had no idea that other countries besides the US celebrate Halloween. How cool.
