Happy #thinkingoutloud Thursday! No idea what I’m going on about? Click here!
1. That moment when you realize that you didn’t even realize Halloween was only 5 days away. And that sentence sounded way less awkward in my head than it did in reality… but there you go. This is what happens when you don’t have kids and you can’t even remember the last time you dressed up. I don’t want to adult anymore. But I do want to buy discount candy. Thank you much.
2. This also means that Christmas is just about 2 months away. And we can start decorating in 1. Right?
3. No? Too soon for the Christmas stuff? Let you enjoy Halloween-ing first? Sorry. But I’m that guy who starts thinking about Christmas in July. Honestly. I’ll be keeping up the tradition of watching my favourite Halloween movie, though… even though I can never decide if it’s more Halloween or Christmas…
4. Ok but for real… I’ll stop now. I have to admit, though, that I’m slightly jealous my American friends still get to enjoy Thanksgiving next month. Like I said… ours kind of comes and goes without much fuss. But you guys? You have this big huge celebration and get to start decorating for Christmas right away. How hard do you think it would be for me to convince my family to celebrate American Thanksgiving instead? Scale of 1-10.
5. Speaking of scales… seaweed gets a 0/10 from me. I tried a tiny bite of those little seaweed snack sheet things when I was visiting my parents, and…. nope. Nope. I can’t do it. It tastes like fish. I can’t do it.
6. I wish I would have had some extra minty gum to get rid of the aftertaste, buuuuuut I went through this time where I kept forgetting to buy more and ended up kind of weaning myself off gum completely. Not really sure how it happened… I used to go through it pretty fast.
7. And we’re back to ending on 7. Happy Thursday, friendly faces!!
Let’s chat!

I actually love eating dried seaweed. I know, I’m weird. Haha.
I’m so not a Halloween person. Bring on Christmas!
I can’t do the seaweed snack either… eewww.
Halloween did sneak up pretty fast, but over here we’ve been celebrating it all month with a horror movie marathon. That’s the best part of October for me!
I’m not in the mood for xmas decorations yet. I’m in the mood for fall, but it’s still so hot here in California. But I started shopping for gifts 😉 And I’m with you at the seaweed, not my cup of tea. Thanks for hosting this linkup! It makes me write about the things that are in my head, but would usually never make it into a post. Happy Thursday!
I love this time of year! First Halloween, which is just so fun, then Thanksgiving, lots of family time and tons of wonderful foods, and then Christmas, gotta end it with a bang. I love them all. I will drag my family to any and all holiday activities, festivals, parades, etc.
You should definitely do an American style Thanksgiving. I mean why not. It’s not like it’s a birthday or something and has to be on a certain day. And who really needs an excuse to be super thankful, enjoy family, and pig out. 🙂
I actually do like those seaweed snacks but I don’t find they do anything in terms of filling me up. It’s just something to eat for the sake of eating…lol
Mmm I love seaweed – do you like sushi by chance? Some places can substitute the seaweed for soy paper. I’m so excited for the holidays!!
I am not big on Halloween. And I was just talking to my sister about the holidays (Thanksgiving and Christmas) and we agreed we wish they were more spread out – like one big holiday in March, the other in Sept/Oct. Having Thanksgiving and Christmas so close together and in the winter weather months is not ideal!
I freakin love halloween! I feel like im part of a small minority. Im putting up Christmas decor next weekend hah!
I’d be sad if Thanksgiving was already over too! You can come celebrate at my house :-). Thanks for hosting!
I went out to look for some halloween/thanksgiving items last weekend and the stores were FILLED with everything Christmas. I love thanksgiving, it’s one of my favorite holidays, you definitely need to convince your family to celebrate. And I don’t love the seaweed snacks either, but I LOVE seaweed salad from Japanese or sushi restaurants.
I hear you about planning Christmas in July! I always enjoy the planning process.
